22 March 2024 – The South African U-20 Men’s National Team (Amajita) reported for their first camp on Thursday, 21 March 2024, with players slowly checking into the camp. A full complement of 45 players were in camp by dinner time.

Amajita will be in the training camp until 28 March 2024 at the SAFA Technical Centre in Johannesburg.

This camp will be the first of many ahead of the 2025 AFCON qualifiers in September 2024.

Head Coach Raymond Mdaka alongside his assistant coaches Donald Mojaki, Karabo Mogudi and Reneilwe Letsholonyane met with SAFA Technical Director Walter Steenbok on the eve of the training camp to detail their plan and expected outcomes of this camp.

“We are very excited going into this weeklong camp;” said Mdaka. All the players have arrived. We had to make a few adjustments to the players called up, as some were reported injured or unavailable for the training camp.

We have called up an additional 5 players that we are keen on monitoring with this group:” continued Mdaka.

“We as the Technical team met with the Technical Director and detailed our plan for this camp. We intend on firstly getting the players to gel and understand our methodology. We will try out a few combinations with a few scheduled practices matches and will have daily training and video sessions with the players, for them to understand what we want from them.

This is the main plan of the week, and we look forward to creating the next generation of the South African U-20 Men’s National Team;” added Mdaka.
