“We’ve shown them slides about our game model, about our team spirit, about our values in the team.
“So, it’s a moment where we can have chats with these new players to integrate them into our team. We welcomed Chabatsane, Msendami and of course Andre De Jong to come to our team.
“We are looking forward to them bringing us all the qualities and the competencies to the team.”
