CDES International beat Jongwe Corner 4-1 in a social football match at Lord Malvern on Saturday.
Cdes’ coach, Farai Chiramba, known as Coach Fatso, said social football helps them bond as a family.
“We play our games every weekend, usually on Saturdays.
“It’s the way we bond with others, we discuss issues, be it health and politics.
“We also take time to advise each other, especially with the rise in the number of men committing suicide.
“After matches, we always encourage each other to open up if there are any problems, so that we can help each other,” said Chiramba.
He added:
“We’ve become like a family.
“So, these matches are not only helping us to keep fit, but they also help us to become better people in our communities.
“There’s no team, which is not reachable for fixtures, when it comes to Cdes International.
“We fulfil fixtures as far as Chiredzi, Bulawayo and Kariba, just to mention a few,” he said.
Cdes’ next match is against Gazebo at Lord Malvern High School on Saturday.
