Kaizer Chiefs were crowned winners of the Gauteng leg of the Engen Knockout Challenge, while their Soweto counterparts Orlando Pirates were disqualified from the competition.
Amakhosi beat Mamelodi on penalties in the final of the renowned youth competition, which took place in Marks Park, Johannesburg last weekend.
A rampant Chiefs side were spurred on by their senior counterparts as the club’s Sporting Director, Kaizer Motaung Jr, head coach Arthur Zwane as well as the entire first team were in attendance to give the youngsters much-needed support.
Meanwhile, Pirates were disqualified from the competition at the quarterfinal mark.
Despite beating the School of Excellence, who were one of the standout teams of the competition, Pirates could not advance to the semi-finals after failing to produce adequate documentation for one of their players, which saw the School of Excellence advance instead.
Chiefs largely dominated the competition’s awards with their coach, Donald Ace Khuse awarded the Coach of the Tournament, while Wandile Dube walked away as the competition’s top scorer.
Moreover, the University of Johannesburg were crowned champions in the ladies division.
