They play for different clubs, Young Eagles FC and Delfos FC respectively, and in different positions, but this weeks ‘Sporting Stars of Tomorrow,’ Jordan Naidoo and Kuziwakwashe Chakawa are certainly on the same team when it comes to their ambitions. The two schoolmates enjoy English as their favourite school subject, but it is on the soccer field here they hope to make their mark. While Jordan has his sights set on finding the back of the net as striker, Kuziwakwashe aims to make his presence felt in midfield, with both lads determined to work hard to become professional soccer players. What makes these aspiring footballing stars so special is that they have their hearts in the right place and hope to use their success to one day help the poor and underprivileged. The Laudium Sun wishes the pair all the very best as they chase their soccer dreams. May their hard work pay off, not only in scoring many goals on the football fields, but in reaching their goal of making a difference in the lives of those less fortunate. Good luck guys!!
