Tsakane to host MDC festival weekend

The MultiChoice Diski Challenge (PSL Reserve League) will descends to the Tsakane township in Ekurhuleni this coming weekend at the Tsakane Stadium.

Having already made its way through some of the country’s biggest townships such as Umlazi, KaNyamazane, Tembisa, Mdantsane, Daveyton, Rocklands to name but a few, the Premier Soccer League (PSL) together with partners MultiChoice, continue to stay true to the tournament’s founding promise of taking football to the people, and the community of Tsakane will be the latest beneficiary of that commitment.

Entry is free on both days but members of the public will be issued with a ticket as part of access control.
