By

Over the past few months, 136 tavern teams have been repping their kasis in the District League of the 2017 Smirnoff Raga Bolo Championship in the hopes of taking home the title of Raga Bolo champions and the grand prize of R150 000. Now, the top 48 will be facing off in the next phase of the five-a-side street soccer tournament – the Provincial League – with matches across Mzansi.

The Eastern Cape Provincial League leg will see teams from eMonti and PE battling it out at the Dodgers Sports Grounds, Avenue A, New Brighton, Port Elizabeth from 12:00 pm on 3 June. Soccer stars Sibusiso “Rhee” Zuma and Benedict Vilakazi will also be there, snapping selfies with supporters.

The 14 teams that come out tops in the Provincial League will head to Gauteng to take part in the National Final on 1 July.

With free entry, everyone’s invited to come watch the games live.
