As part of their ninth international tour, Life Zone’s Under-12 boys and girls squads represented South Africa at two prestigious tournaments abroad.

The boys team made history by claiming gold in the Piteå Summer Games, going undefeated throughout the tournament.

Their momentum continued in the Storsjöcupen, hosted in Östersund, where they placed second overall. The girls squad put in a spirited performance, advancing to the quarterfinals.

Coach Jeremy Wyngaard, founder and head of Life Zone Soccerl, said the Dream Possible Tour is a culmination of hard work, sacrifice, and a community united by belief.
