Seoposenwe a bedrock for Banyana MINENHLE MKHIZE
MITCHELLS Plain is renowned for producing top sporting talent and Banyana Banyana star Jermaine Seoposenwe falls into that category. Over the years, Mitchells Plain has blessed South Africa with stars such as Moeneeb Josephs, Nasief Morris, Ricardo Katza, Devon Petersen and Nizaam Carr. Seoposenwe rose to prominence in 2010 at the Under-17 World Cup. She introduced herself in style in Trinidad and Tobago. She scored SA’s two goals at the tournament and suddenly everyone started to take note of the then 16-year-old from Cape Town.
After the World Cup, Seoposenwe was named SA’s Young Women’s Player of the Year. Two years later she missed out on the London Olympics because of injury. She bounced back and helped Banyana qualify for the Rio Games, and she was a star at the World Cup in France last year. Now 26, Seoposenwe is one of the cogs in the Banyana team and has formed a potent attacking partnership alongside Thembi Kgatlana and Refiloe Jane. Her international experience in the United States, Lithuania, Spain and Portugal has made her a national asset. [ 11 ]
