FOOTBALL coaches and players are modern-day gladiators. They are thrust into battle week-on-week screaming “are you not entertained?”, with every well-placed instruction on tactics, tackles and passing.
It is therefore no surprise that football coaches and players are prone to bouts of flashiness when it comes to their grooming and looks. Already armed with head-to-toe designer garb and more tattoo ideas than there is silverware at their respective clubs’ trophy cabinets, the last port of call for a coach and his charges is to show just how elevated they are from us mere mortals through their haircuts and clothes.
Coming closer to home, spotting a bald haircut seems to be an in-thing with members of the Kelvin Kaindu-led Highlanders technical department that has Try Ncube, Agent Sawu and Daniel Khumalo as first assistant, second assistant and goalkeepers coach respectively.
The quartet has proved to be undisputed gents of the game, wise men with a regal touch on and off the pitch that has also seen their fitness and conditioning coach Abraham Mbaiwa and physiotherapist Loyal Nyika follow suit.
They have all kept it clean and simple and the obvious hope from the Bosso faithful is that it will continue to blend in nicely with their current breathtaking rich vein of form as they seek to win the Premier Soccer League title, last won by the club in 2006.
