Nyatama Wins Coach Of The Month

Swallows FC coach Musa Nyatama has been named DStv Premiership Coach of the Month for May 2023.

Ntayama’s Swallows had a fantastic month in May winning all their three fixtures, securing 9 points in the process. The three victories were over Kaizer Chiefs, Royal AM, and Marumo Gallants.

The Swallows FC caretaker coach had a dream end to the league campaign, saving the Soweto-based side from relegation and incredibly securing a Top 8 finishing on the last day, all of which took place in May.

Cape Town City forward, Khanyisa Mayo, who finished the 2022/23 DStv Premiership season as the joint-league top goal scorer, won DStv Premiership Player of the Month for May.

Nyatama and Mayo both win their first ever monthly individual award in the DStv Premiership.

They beat City and Orlando Pirates’ coaches Eric Tinkler and Jose Riveiro, Nyatama’s forward at Swallows Lindokuhle Mtshali, Edwin Gyimah of Sekhukhune United as well as Monnapule Saleng from the Buccaneers, who were all also impressive in May but received lesser votes from the judging panel.

For their recognition, Nyatama and Mayo will each receive a trophy and R7, 000 courtesy of league sponsors, DStv.
