Newly crowned MultiChoice Diski Challenge champions Golden Arrows are gearing themselves up for a week-long trip to the Netherlands. The tour serves as a prize for winning the PSL Reserve League.
The team, led by head coach Vusumuzi Vilakazi and captain Sibusiso Sibeko, will depart on Friday and return to South Africa on March 26. During their visit, the club will get to test their strengths against Beloften Eredivisie sides; PEC Zwolle, FC Twente and Heracles FC.
During their stay in Holland, they will be based in Zwolle and will train at the IJsseldelta Stadium – the training venue for PEC Zwolle's first team. Arrows will also spend some time at the Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNVB) headquarters in Utrecht, training under the watchful eye of senior Eredivisie mentors.
They will also get an opportunity to observe a training session of the Netherlands national team as they prepare for a friendly against France. Arrows will attend the match at the Amsterdam Arena. Abafana Bes’thende clinched the 2015/16 Asidlali trophy in dramatic fashion as they came back from a goal down to beat Free State Stars 2-1 on the final day of the season, with both goals coming in the last five minutes of the match.
