winner for us this year, particularly in the Victoria
Park Powerade Soccer Challenge where she won
Goalkeeper of the Tournament. Olwethu Ntswayi
has been a versatile player who played in different
positions in midfield and in defence over the past
few seasons. She leaves with fantastic memories of
the 2012 Cape Town Soccer tour where she ended
up going home with non-matching shoes after a visit to the Ice Rink at Grand West Casino.
Sinazo Ndevu has been one of the most positive

has a great sense of humour and there is never a dull

On behalf of the school I’d like to thank our three
coaches who coached our girls with passion and
drive this year: Miss Jessi Heatley, Mr Lithemba
Daile and Mr Thando Loliwe.
Finally our captain fantastic Daniella Patsalos, who
has represented VP 1st girls’ soccer since she was in
Grade 8. This year she carried the team’s attacking

the team quietly and with distinction. We will no
doubt miss these ladies as they formed an integral
part of VP girls’ soccer for at least 3 seasons.
