Ajax CT found guilty of Fielding Ndoro

The Premier Soccer League (PSL) has received the award in the arbitration proceedings
concerning Ajax Cape Town and Mr. Tendai Ndoro from Arbitrator, Advocate W. Mokhari
SC.

Ajax Cape Town FC was charged with five charges of misconduct arising from the club
fielding Mr. Ndoro in various matches. The Arbitrator also heard an appeal by Polokwane
City FC against the fielding of Mr. Ndoro in their match as well as a Protest by SuperSport
United.

The Arbitrator today ruled that Ajax Cape Town were guilty of breaching SAFA and FIFA
Regulations relating to their fielding of Mr. Ndoro. Polokwane City’s appeal and Supersport
United’s Protest were also upheld.

Adv. Mokhari SC awarded the matches played by Ajax Cape Town against Platinum Stars,
Polokwane City and Supersport United to those clubs with a 3-0 score line. In addition Ajax
Cape Town were fined a total of R 350 000.00.

Mr. Ndoro was sentenced to a two match suspension for his misconduct. Ajax Cape Town
was ordered to pay the costs (including the costs of senior counsel) of the other parties
involved in the arbitration.

As a result of the ruling, please take note of the revised log positions of the ABSA
Premiership (see log attached).

Platinum Stars Football Club will therefore participate in the Promotion play-offs as
envisaged in the NSL Handbook read with the Play-off Rules on the dates.

For clarity purposes, the scheduled fixture in Thohoyandou tomorrow (Wednesday, 16 May
2018 – 15h00) between Black Leopards and (now) Platinum Stars will go ahead.
