This week, ‘Sporting Stars of Tomorrow,’ shines the spotlight on Huzayr Abdoola and Isa Ebrahim, who have more in common than they may realize. The lads attend the same school, patrol the same position on the field as Left-Wingers and share the same football idol in Neymar Júnior, with both believing in thanking the Almighty when success comes their way. Away from the football field however, their paths differ with Huzayr, who enjoys Maths at school, already setting his sights on a future career as an accountant, while Isa, happiest when PE is on the timetable, dreams of becoming a pro-footbaler. The Laudium Sun wishes the pair every success in their academic and sporting journeys. With hard work, enthusiasm and practice, the future looks bright for these talented young wingers. Good luck guys!!
