Carte Blanche coming up: Football fail

The Sunday, 26 April episode of Carte Blanche turns its focus to a once-celebrated football academy founded in 1994 to nurture talented players from underprivileged backgrounds, raising questions about its future under controversial new ownership.

The investigation reveals growing turmoil at the institution, where lessons reportedly began weeks late, staff face retrenchments or steep salary cuts, and learners claim they are going hungry due to inadequate food provisions.

Once regarded as a beacon of opportunity and sporting excellence, the academy now appears to be struggling behind the scenes, with concerns mounting over management decisions and the potential erosion of its proud legacy.
