The battle for a trip to Barcelona, Spain between nine provincial winners of the Milo Champions will be staged this Saturday, not next weekend, as per the initial plan.

The battle field for these eagerly awaited national championships will be Marks Park in Johannesburg.

The Under-14 soccer competition for primary schools across the country is sponsored by Nestle, and the first prize is a trip to Barcelona, Spain in September.

"We were forced by the transport logistics to bring the games forward to this weekend. The other issue is that of the visas for the team that will make it to Spain," Mandla Mazibuko, South African Schools Football Association president, said yesterday. - Sowetan
