Jwaneng Galaxy Coach Morena Ramoreboli Nominated for COSAFA Men's Coach of the Year Award
Jwaneng Galaxy's head coach, Morena Ramoreboli, has been selected as a nominee for the Men's Coach of the Year award in the inaugural Council of Southern African Football Associations (COSAFA) awards.
The awards aim to recognize excellence in the region and are scheduled to take place on April 19 in Durban. Ramoreboli's nomination comes as a result of his outstanding performance with Galaxy, who are the reigning champions of the Botswana Premier League (BPL) and have advanced to the group stages of the CAF Champions League.
Galaxy achieved a notable victory over South African powerhouse Orlando Pirates to secure their spot in the Champions League group stages. COSAFA highlighted Ramoreboli's accomplishments, suggesting that this could be the year to honor him, especially considering Galaxy's impressive win against Moroccan giants Wydad Casablanca.
Ramoreboli faces competition from Rhulani Mokwena of Mamelodi Sundowns and Collin Benjamin, head coach of the Namibian national team. Mokwena guided Mamelodi Sundowns to victory in the African Football League and domestic competitions, while Benjamin led the Brave Warriors to a commendable performance in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations and impressive results in the qualifiers.
Ramoreboli represents Botswana as the sole nominee from the country across all categories.
