Technical team for //Karas
Preparations for the Skorpion Zinc Under-17 Cup are in full swing, as regional teams get hyped for the tourney.
//Karas has appointed a technical team to prepare its football team to defend the Skorpion Zinc Under-17 Cup title they won last year.
This year's edition is scheduled to take place in the capital between 23 and 26 August.
In an interview with Nampa on Sunday, Emrico Blaauw, who will serve as the team's manager, said they will start with preparations on 11 August, and have retained a large contingent of the team that won the competition last year. “We have most of the players from last year and will add a few from the three academies we have in the region. We had an under-17 team that played against a Northern Cape team in Oranjemund earlier this year and will also add some players from them,” Blaauw said.
Suzel Cloete will serve as the head of delegation for the tournament, while Neville Willemse is the head coach.
He is deputised by Tuhafeni Fillipus and Robert Kooper will serve as the kit manager.
The defending champions have been grouped with Hardap, Omaheke, Kavango East and Oshana in Group B.
In Group A, hosts Khomas will go up against Erongo, Kunene, Zambezi and Otjozondjupa. Group C is comprised of Ohangwena, Oshikoto, Omusati and Kavango West.
The top three teams and the best-placed runners-up will qualify for the semi-finals of the competition.
