The former Bloemfontein Celtic star missed out on the top goal scorer award which was won by veteran striker Nompumelelo Nyandeni with the JVW FC player scoring 30 goals in 30 matches this season.
Richmond United’s Nthabiseng Majiya, who scored the goal that helped Banyana Banyana beat neighbours Botswana at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon) earlier this year, was named the best Young Player of the Season.
The head of operations for Africa for the sponsors, Sandisiwe Bhengu, said they have been impressed with how much the women’s game has grown over the last two years since they got on board.
“This has clearly shown that South Africans have a strong desire for Women’s football. Through partnerships with stakeholders like the SABC, we have been able to give hope to the young girl child who watches her idol on television every week to become part of the journey that seeks to make South Africa a footballing giant on the world stage,” said Bhengu.
La Liga delegate in South Africa Enrique Suay, announced that all the winners will travel to Spain for a La Liga experience as part of the added prize because of the partnership they have with Hollywoodbets.
