Mr Peter "Bra Toy" Ramasobane was an outstanding football leader whose dedication to Ratanang FC and commitment to the development of community football earned him the respect of many. As Chairman of Ratanang FC, he led with humility, integrity and a genuine passion for the game. His leadership extended beyond the club, as he continuously encouraged unity, sportsmanship and the growth of football within our communities.

While we mourn his passing, we also celebrate a life that was devoted to serving others and advancing the beautiful game.

During this difficult period, our thoughts and prayers remain with the Ramasobane family, the Ratanang FC family, and everyone affected by this painful loss. We pray that God grants you strength, comfort and peace as you mourn the passing of a remarkable man.
Peter "Bra Toy" Ramasobane may have left the field of play, but his legacy will forever remain part of the game he loved. His contribution to football and to our tournament will never be forgotten.
