New KSSR league champs crowned
Mount View High School and Windhoek Technical High School were on Thursday crowned the champions of the under-15 and u-17 categories, respectively, of the 2019 Khomas School Sport Region (KSSR) league.
The finals took place at the Namibia Football Association (NFA) Technical Centre in the capital, with the u-15 players of Mount View beating Jan Jonker High School 1-0.
In the u-17 clash, Windhoek Technical High School triumphed 3-1 over Jacob Marengo Secondary School.
The tough encounter between Mount View and Jan Jonker saw both teams displaying great talent.
In the end, it was centre-back defender Ndiili Johannes who became the man of the moment, when he stole the show by scoring the winning goal.
Mount View coach Mabena Nuukushu said even though he only had a few days to train the boys, he was impressed by their performance.
“Displaying classic football at that age is just amazing,” said the coach.
Meanwhile, the first half of the u-17 final saw Jacob Marengo pushing for goals, but failing to convert their chances, resulting in both two teams only scoring one goal each before halftime. In the second half, Windhoek Technical High School started attacking more.
KSSR league administrator Dave Karuhumba said he was impressed by the overall performance of the players, adding he is planning to take the league to other regions.
He said not all schools have training facilities, but they all managed to complete their league matches.
The league allows schools in the Khomas Region to compete amongst each other in football, netball, rugby, volleyball and basketball in different age categories.
The winners walked away with different prizes, including trophies, medals and vouchers.
