ALOES ASSISTANT COACH MAKES HISTORY IN #BFNPL

Sameshia Esau, assistant coach of the Eastern Cape Aloes, has managed something that won’t easily be repeated. Esau (30) became the first person this year to play, referee and coach in the Brutal Fruit Premier League (BFNPL).

She was a goal attack and goal defence for the Aloes in the inaugural BFNPL in 2014. In 2016 and 2017 she acted as one of the referees in the tournament and this year she is the assistant to Des Neville.

Esau is a former South African u21, u20 and SA Schools player who also represented a SA Invitational side to the Africa Games in 2011.
Marlie Nel, head coach of the Mpumalanga Sunbirds, also have special connection to the tournament acting in different roles over the five years. Nel, in her second year as head coach, developed from captain and goal defender in 2014, to team manager in 2015, assistant coach (2016) and head coach (2017) of the Sunbirds. The Sunbirds will face the Limpopo Baobabs on Saturday for the play-off for 7th and 8th position. Whatever the outcome, 2018 is the Sunbirds best campaign yet.

Nel and Esau is one of five coaches this year who previously played in the BFNPL. The others are Dumisani Chauke, an assistant coach of the Fireballs, who represented the Aloes in 2014, 2015, Rozanne Matthyse, assistant coach of the Jaguars, who played for the Jaguars last year and the Fireballs in 2014 and 2015, and Thembi Mgwenya, assistant coach of the Sunbirds, who was in action for this team between 2014 and 2017.
Should the Jaguars be crown as champions on Sunday, Matthyse will be the first person to win the trophy as a player and coach.
