Mamelodi Sundowns chairman Tlhopie Motsepe during the Caf Champions League quarterfinal, second leg match against Al Ahly at Lucas Moripe Stadium in Atteridgeville on May 22 2021.Strengthening the club's support base, development and the women's team are the low-hanging fruit Mamelodi Sundowns' new young chair Tlhopie Motsepe says he will aim to pick as he seeks to become his own man running the club for the next five years.
A new digital magazine launched in September has the hallmarks of a chair who, at 32, can count himself as firmly a millennial. “So among a lot of the things I've been able to do, already we are putting very high on our list our ladies team and of course our academy teams. Because these are grass roots opportunities for us to do one thing, which is to make more people fall in love with the game.”
“I hope it inspires a lot more girls. I hope it makes young girls who play this game look at our stars, our captain Zanele [Nhlapo], the midfield maestro Oratilwe [Mokwena], and that it gives them encouragement.
