Premier Soccer League President Irvin Khoza is ready to hand over the baton to the next generation of leaders.

Khoza, who was elected unopposed to the post at yesterday’s quadrennial general assembly in Johannesburg, hinted it could be his last four years on the bench.

Members of the National Football League expressed their confidence in Khoza by contesting the elections unopposed. But he said it is time for the next generation of leaders to be coached into taking office.

There were 13 nominations for the executive, but José Ferreira withdrew. Kaizer Motaung, David Thidiela, Robert Benadie, Rejoice Simelane, Mato Madlala, Stan Matthews and John Comitis were elected to the PSL executive.

Two women, Simelane and Madlala, are on the national executive committee, but Khoza, who is nicknamed Iron Duke, predicted that in the next four years there would be more female representatives.

The league does not have a permanent CEO and Madlala has been serving as interim CEO for several years.
