Mr Naido told Sapa that a meeting will take place in Johannesburg on December 2 and 3 where a committee will be elected to formulate the structure and membership of the proposed body. "My prediction is that a single controlling body for South African soccer will be formed by April or May next year," Mr Naido said. Four national controlling soccer bodies are involved in the meetings, which will take place next month. They are the South African Soccer Federation, South African Soccer Association, Football Association of South Africa and the South African National Football Association.

His first service did not want to work and numerous unforced errors WHILE all soccer clubs in developed countries want toend a season ended the competitive league season made him lose his concentration and opened the way for an easy Pate victory. with at least a league title behind their names, Namibian soccer with a dramatic finish when the league Mark Keil, number 666 on the latest A TP rankings, also made it through to clubs seem to focus their attention only on major titles. title was decided in its final stage as the semi-finals when he beat countryman Joey Rive 6-3 6-4.
