Leopards to use new and old
Black Leopards have confirmed that they
will be using the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium as an alternate venue this season.
Lidoda Duvha will play six of their matches
at the venue, and nine at the 2010 FIFA World Cup venue that goes by the same
name just a hundred metres or so away.
The club has been forced to dump the Giyani
Stadium as it is undergoing renovations and is likely to be out of commission for
the entire season.
“We will be playing at the Old Peter Mokaba
Stadium, the pitch looks fantastic and the stadium did receive some renovation
ahead of the 2010 World Cup, so it has been upgraded on the past,” club
spokesman Tendani Thidiela says.
Leopards start their new League campaign at
home to Bloemfontein Celtic at the new Peter Mokaba venue on Saturday, with
their first game at the old stadium scheduled for September 2 against Chippa
United.
