Coach Lewellyn Brown said: "I as the coach and the management team thank the players for their hard work and courage they showed during the tournament.

"Once again, it was an honour and privilege to win back to back with the team again. Credit must be given to the Lord for guiding us and giving us the strength to pull this off. As a team, we are strong believers in the Word of God. And through God we achieved the victory."

We thank Oom André and Masshire for their yearly contribution to the team since 2014. We appreciate your constant love and support for the team. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We could not have come this far without you.
