The inaugural COSAFA Awards will be staged at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg on Thursday evening, a celebration of the very best of Southern African football as we honour those players, coaches and referees who excelled in 2023.


The ceremony, which gets under way at 18h30 CAT (16h30 GMT) will be streamed on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
There will be 11 awards handed over for the best performers last year, as well as five Lifetime Achievement gongs in recognition of those who have served the game with distinction over a period of time in Southern Africa.
There will be dignitaries from across the region as well as Legends from yesteryear who left their mark on the game with memories that still linger today.


“These awards have been a long time coming and we are delighted to host the inaugural event this year,” says COSAFA Executive Director Sue Destombes. “We have seen tremendous growth in our region in both men’s and women’s football, and the achievements of teams, players and coaches should be celebrated.


“These awards highlight the work that COSAFA continues to do on and off the pitch to develop football in our region and while we celebrate these successes, it also gives us the desire to do more in the future and continue this upward trajectory for our game.”
There are eight player/coach categories and three for referees, with one Referee Legend award. The Lifetime Achievement categories are for player, coaching, refereeing, women’s football, and media.
The gala dinner will also see world-class entertainment and the chance for guests to mingle with Legends.
