After weeks even months of trying to motivate the boys from Orange Farm to play soccer since the previous coach had passed away. I approached and offered my non-existing soccer skill to start a team, I was welcome with a whooping "who are you?" attitude up until Youthzones and the Gauteng Department of Education hosted a Tournament in Deipsloot.

The Glazing Orion Netball team joined the tournament and came back with trophies and some other goodies.On hearing this the boys now approached me to ask why didn't I include them because the hear that people where getting soccer boots, trophies and some other goodies.

Then ever since then, Eleven Attackers FC was born from a few street soccer players to a two division soccer team.

The change of coaches might have impacted on the growth.

All in all, the life skill to learn hear is, "take every opportunity with passion, you will never know where it will take you..."
