The North West province will be well represented in top flight football in the upcoming new premiership season, after Lerumo Lions - owned by the flambouyant Sibongile Marokana - acquired the status of Motsepe Foundation Championship side Pretoria Callies.
Last season, Lions competed in the North West ABC Motsepe League, finishing second with 89 points, just nine points behind champions, Thames FC.
Prior to the conclusion of the amateur league season, Lions had filed a formal complaint with SAFA, alleging that Thames FC had fielded an ineligible player - namely Isa Mangera. Lions alleged that Mangera joined Thames without completing the required medical documentation, which violates league regulations.
Thames subsequently won the case and went on to play in the ABC Motsepe League National Playoffs, which were ultimately won by Gomora Unted from Alexandra, Johannesburg.
Following Lions’ acquisition of Callies, the North West province will now have two clubs representing the province in top flight football, after Orbit College FC’s promotion into the Betway Premiership.
