THOHOYANDOU – Apart from the fact that the match between Black Leopards and Orlando Pirates at the Thohoyandou Stadium tomorrow is expected to be a thriller, there will be a lot of fun before, during and after the game.

Two matches have been organised to serve as curtain raisers to whet the soccer appetite of the fans. The stadium will be a razzmatazz from the moment the fans arrive until they leave the stadium after the main match.

The first match will be between staff members of Mirror and Black Leopards Masters. The match is expected to start 11:30. The second match will be between Black Leopards Gauteng branch and the Limpopo branch scheduled for 13:30.

The main match will commence at 15:30. According to the Marketing Manager of the club, Mr Calvin Ralikhuvhana, they will give away several fabulous prizes to lucky winners at half time.

He revealed that they will hold a lucky draw at half time and that the lucky winners will take home prizes ranging from cooler boxes, caps and cash. The Black Leopards Man of the Match will become R200 richer at the end of the game.

These prizes have, according to Ralikhuvhana, been sponsored by Mount Fuji Motors from Louis Trichardt. The company will give away similar prizes in all Leopards home matches.

* In the meantime Ralikhuvhana stated that his club would visit inmates at the Matatshe Prison tomorrow morning. According to him they will open a supporters' club branch for the inmates during their visit. They will also donate a soccer kit to the Matatshe Inmates Black Leopards Football Club during a ceremony that will be held at the prison playground starting at 09:30.
