The 2023/2024 DSTV Premier Soccer League has come to an end with Mamelodi Sundowns securing the league title once more.
Last night, the PSL Awards took place. The awards were once again hosted virtually and to be honest, we hope this is the last time this was the case. It would be pleasant to have the PSL host the awards in person to celebrate the seasons very best in style.
Ronwen Williams took home the top honours, bagging the PSL “Footballer of the season” award, as well as the “Goalkeeper of the season” award. Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena walked away with the DStv Premiership Coach of the Season award, beating Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro and Stellenbosch FC mentor Steve Barker to claim the award.
Meanwhile Patrick Maswanganyi bagged three awards. He was honoured with the Midfielder of the Season title, in addition to winning the Nedbank Cup Player of the Season award and DStv Premiership Player’s Player of the Season.
