SIHLANGU VISITS EMLEMBE MOUNTAIN SPRING WATER DEPORT AHEAD OF THE COSAFA TOURNAMENT
As part of strengthening ties between corporate sponsors and football development, Sihlangu SeMnikati paid a special visit to the Emlembe Mountain Spring Water depot, the official hydration sponsor Sihlangu SeMnikati and Sitsebe SaMhlekazi. The visit took place ahead of the team’s participation in the upcoming COSAFA Tournament, and it served as a powerful gesture of appreciation and solidarity between the Eswatini Football Association and Emlembe Mountain Spring Water.
During the visit, players and technical staff were given a guided tour of the depot, learning more about how Emlembe sources, purifies, and packages its premium spring water. This hands-on experience gave the players a deeper understanding of the processes behind the product that fuels their performance on and off the pitch.
Jordan Levendale, Director of Emlembe Mountain Spring Water, warmly welcomed the team and expressed his gratitude for their visit. He wished the squad all the best in their COSAFA campaign, assuring them of Emlembe’s unwavering support not only as a sponsor, but as passionate football supporters.
“It means a lot to have you here today. You are not only representing the nation but also inspiring our community. We believe in you and will continue to support you every step of the way. In fact, we’re already working on something special; which is a large hand-drawn portrait of the entire squad, created by a local artist, which we plan to unveil on our depot walls in the next two months,” said Levendale.
In response, national team captain Sabelo “Sikhali” Ndzinisa expressed heartfelt thanks to Emlembe Spring Water for their continued support and commitment to the team’s well-being.
“We appreciate Emlembe’s support. Hydration is essential, especially during training and match days, and they’ve always made sure we’re well taken care of. This kind of backing motivates us to push even harder for success,” said Ndzinisa.
Providing an update on the squad’s preparations, Assistant Coach of the national team Sifiso Ntibane, confirmed that the team is in high spirits and focused on the upcoming tournament.
“All players are fit and training well, except for Fanelo Mamba, who is recovering from an injury he sustained in camp. Otherwise, the squad is fully committed and understands the task ahead,” Ntibane said.
Echoing this sentiment were Justice Figuareido who plays his club football in South Africa, Tommy Morgan who is based in England, and the current MTN Premier League Champion Neliswa “Tiger” Dlamini, all of whom emphasized the team’s unity and determination to get positive results in the Hollywoodbets COSAFA Cup.
