Ramagalela won the PSL top goal scorer award last Tuesday night. He said that he was ploughing back into the community and wanted to help develop young players at grassroots level.
Mr Elelwani Funyufunyu of Rockers described Ramagalela as "a selfless and caring community developer." He said it was painful to see that many business people did not plough anything back into the community. He said most of the soccer stars of yesterday are now penniless and some were even taking ordinary jobs after a life of glory.
