In this edition of ‘Sporting Stars of Tomorrow,’ we feature young Ovayo Goqo and Tiisetso Mere, both from the same school, Laudium Primary, and both already putting in the work to make it big on the soccer fields. The boys share the sane determination, although they play for different clubs, Simon Stars and Delfos FC respectively, holding different positions, with Tiisetso sharpening his shooting skills as striker, while Ovayo holds the back line strong, as defender.
