This Africa Cup victory is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our players and coaches, as well as the invaluable support from our community.”

Mayor Mafume expressed his delight and admiration for the Sables’ achievement. He acknowledged the grueling nature of the sport and praised the team’s determination and skill.

“We are immensely proud of the Sables for their remarkable victory,” the Mayor said. “Your hard work and dedication have brought great honor to our city. We understand the importance of grassroots development and will continue to support our community sports clubs to ensure a sustainable future for rugby in Harare.”
