Rangers aim to make history

12 October 2012

RANGERS will be hoping to put their name in the Nafa history books at the Gelvandale Stadium on Sunday when they play Glenville in the final of the Mala Moodaley KO Cup.

The club which plays in the Nafa second tier was a household name in the former EP Soccer Board, but has never won the coveted trophy which is now in its 61st year. They have just one previous appearance in the final.

Glenville, on the other hand, have won the trophy twice in their relatively short history.

The match will be the finale on the Cup Finals Day which ends the Nafa season.

The day's activities begin with a legends match between Fairview Rovers and Police.

Entry fee at the stadium is R5 for adults and R3 for children. Food and refreshments will be on sale.


IKAMVA Movers should score their fourth successive victory on Sunday when they play newly promoted Young Ideas in a Mofa Premier League fixture at the NU9 Stadium.

Ideas have made a poor debut, sharing the points with Tomorrow Stars in their first match and going down to Shining Stars in their second. They play fellow debutantes NU29 United tomorrow.
