Cape Town Stadium (and the ever loud Twitter) was abuzz with activity on Wednesday as Cape Town City FC was officially launched by new club boss John Comitis.
Cape Town City FC was born after Comitis concluded the purchase of Absa PSL mid table specialists Mpumalanga Black Aces from the Morfou brothers recently.
The big boss was on hand to address invited guests, dignitaries and members of the media, where he showed off the new-look PSL outfit, with players and members of the technical team present.
The club also took the opportunity to unveil its new logo as well as their signature kit as Comitis explained the importance of including Cape Town’s community in the club’s future.
“It was always going to be about Cape Town, it was always going to be about how we can put a club out here that people are going to feel like this is their club, it’s a sense that they feel a part of it, something that they feel either through the history of their football in this city or otherwise from their aspirations in the future, they’ll feel like this club can fill that gap. There’s no doubt that there was that gap,’’ Comitis said.
Its a great thing that the number of football clubs from the Cape plying in the top tier are increasing. Well, winning the title will be another huddle. All the best lads!
