Pitso Mosimane, a well-known figure in South African football, has taken a significant step in developing the country’s next football generation by launching the Pitso Mosimane Soccer Schools (PMSS) in collaboration with Curro. The objective is to create an environment that fosters young talents’ growth and development.
Tlou Molekwane, a former defender and a name unfamiliar to many Kaizer Chiefs supporters, will be part of the PMSS coaching staff. Although his time with Amakhosi was brief, his passion for the sport makes him a valuable addition to the team.
Mosimane emphasizes that PMSS is not an outsider but works alongside the South African Football Association (SAFA). The coaches hired have undergone SAFA’s CAF D license course, ensuring PMSS complies with SAFA’s guidelines.
PMSS coaches are selected based on their proficiency in football development programs and their geographical proximity to the areas they will serve. This approach strengthens the grassroots aspect of the initiative, fostering a deeper and genuine connection between the coaches and students.
PMSS implements an intensive coach education program that evaluates potential coaches’ ability to comprehend and implement the program’s philosophy and principles. Augustine Makalakalane oversees the process.
PMSS aims to elevate South African football to new heights by enhancing grassroots football and providing a platform for coaches to refine their skills. The partnership with Curro highlights the shared goal of fostering growth and development within South Africa’s football community.
PMSS’s momentum continues to grow, shaping the future of South African football. Tlou Molekwane’s journey from an Amakhosi player to a critical figure in the PMSS coaching staff serves as an inspiration to aspiring football coaches. PMSS’s continued growth and evolution promise more success stories, solidifying its position as a driving force behind South African football’s future.
