| Lesotho shining... |
Lesotho put up a strong performance at
the second Bulpae Best of the Best Taekwondo Tournament that was held last
weekend in Germiston in South Africa.
The team won six gold, four silver and
five bronze medals for a grand total of 15 medals at the championships to
finish second in the final medal standings.
The Bulpae Best of the Best Taekwondo
Tournament was contested by ten teams which were nine South African provinces
and Lesotho as a guest team.
Lesotho’s team consisted of juniors and
seniors. The juniors were 10 year-olds Katleho Moleka and Khethisa Molapo, 11
year-old Billy Sello and Khiba Mohapi who is 12 years old.
The senior team was made up of Kefuoe
Nketle, Shale Majara, Maoe Mokoaqoa, Bongani Tshabalala, Makhotla Khoale,
Lebenya Moalosi, captain Retšelisitsoe Makoaela and instructor Nthethe Masaile.
The team is part of the Taekwondo
Marshall Arts programme that is run by the Lesotho Mounted Police Service.
To basketball and the National
Basketball League continues this weekend with an exciting plate of action
headlined by the meeting of A-Division leaders Bokamoso South against reigning
champions KTA All-Stars on Saturday at the NUL basketball courts.
The match-up is a repeat of last
season’s NBL finals in which KTA All-Stars swept Bokamoso South 3-0 to win the
national crown.

| Bokamoso South looking to maintain momentum... |
However, the youth Bokamoso have grown
from the experience. They are on top of the NBL A-Division standings after
winning all their five games this season and are the only unbeaten team in the
league. Bokamoso also won the 2016 Sprite Memorial Independence Tournament two
weeks ago beating KTA All-Stars 50-46 along the way.
KTA, on the other hand, are fourth in
the NBL standings, three points behind Bokamoso South. The champions have won
three and lost one of their four NBL games this season.
Finally, to football and this weekend
sees another pivotal line-up of fixtures in the Vodacom Premier League. The
main dish is the clash between champions Lioli and rivals Bantu on Sunday at
Setsoto Stadium. The sides are separated by just one point in the premiership standings
and, depending on other results, the winner of the crunch tie could finish the
weekend on top of the league.
In other action this weekend, log
leaders Kick4Life host struggling Linare at the LCS Stadium on Sunday while
second placed LMPS play LCS at the PTC Grounds on Saturday.
