Reflecting on a decade of transformation, she emphasized how both the DStv Diski Challenge (DDC) squad and the senior team have shown significant growth and resilience.

“What a special moment—massive congratulations to the entire Amakhosi family,” she said in an interview with SuperSport TV.

Motaung took time to thank the club’s fans for their unyielding loyalty. Despite the drought of trophies, fans continued to fill stadiums, breaking merchandise records and showcasing their passion for the club.
