- MIHLALI BALEKA.

Leaner, pictured, is a crybaby. But such are the benefits of his labour that he is proud of the sweat and tears he has put in to get to where he is today.Leaner was born in Elsies River, one of the crime-ridden townships in Cape Town. As such, he had a choice: take the easy, crime-bound route or the road less travelled — and he chose the latter. His decision, coupled with hard work, has made him a role model in his community, as he has also found a balance between his studies and his professional football career.
