soccer

The soccer teams practice in front of the residences and regularly have practice games against other residences when the soccer season is finished.

hockey

Mopanie offers hockey as well and we are quite a force to be reckoned with on the field. Last year we ended 5th and this year we are battling it out for the top position constantly.
