🕊️ TS Galaxy in Mourning After Chairperson’s Mother Dies – Fans Send Emotional Tributes 💔😭
South African football is in mourning following the confirmed passing of the mother of TS Galaxy’s chairperson, a figure well-respected both within the club and across the PSL community.

The heartbreaking news was officially released by TS Galaxy via their verified Facebook page in a brief but deeply emotional post that left fans across the country reeling in shock and sympathy.
While the club has not disclosed the specific cause of death, the announcement carried a tone of profound grief and reverence — signaling not just the loss of a parent, but of a woman whose impact extended far beyond her immediate family.
The post, which went live late last night, was quickly met with an outpouring of condolences, love, and heartfelt tributes from fans, fellow football executives, and PSL clubs alike.
Thousands reacted within hours, flooding the comments section with messages of strength and support for the grieving chairperson.
The pain was especially evident in responses from TS Galaxy players and coaching staff, many of whom referred to the late matriarch as a “mother figure” and a silent backbone behind the club’s successes.
Known for being close to his family, the TS Galaxy chairperson has long spoken about how his upbringing and his mother’s values influenced his leadership style — firm yet compassionate, driven yet grounded.
Her passing is not just a personal loss for him, but a symbolic one for a club that prides itself on unity, respect, and family-oriented values.
Insiders say the news reached the players during a closed training session, which was immediately halted as emotions overwhelmed the room.
Some players were reportedly seen in tears, and senior staff called for an emergency internal meeting to plan an official response.
According to sources close to the club, funeral arrangements are currently being made, and the chairperson is expected to take a temporary step back from club activities to mourn privately with his family.

It’s believed that a formal memorial service will be announced in the coming days, with many PSL clubs likely to attend or send representatives in a show of solidarity.
Several teams have already released public messages of condolence, including Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, and Mamelodi Sundowns — proving that rivalry takes a backseat when tragedy strikes.
In the football world, moments like this remind us of the human beings behind the emblems, jerseys, and press conferences.
The TS Galaxy chairperson has been one of the most dynamic and ambitious figures in the local game, helping to transform a relatively young club into a competitive force.
Under his guidance, the Rockets have challenged giants and built a passionate fanbase.
His mother, by many accounts, was a quiet but unwavering pillar of support throughout his journey — attending matches, praying for victories, and urging him to always prioritize humility and integrity.
It’s also worth noting that this tragedy comes at a particularly sensitive time for the club.
As the off-season transfer window looms and pre-season preparations begin, TS Galaxy will now have to balance their football obligations with collective mourning.
Players are expected to wear black armbands in upcoming fixtures, and a minute of silence will likely be observed at their next match.
More tributes are also expected from fans, some of whom are already planning a memorial banner and stadium tribute.
For now, the club’s social media pages are reflecting a tone of mourning, with their profile pictures changed to black-and-white versions of the team logo.
The official Facebook post announcing the death concluded with a powerful message: “We stand with our Chair during this difficult time.
May her soul rest in eternal peace.
” That line alone has been shared across platforms hundreds of times, a quiet echo of grief felt far beyond the walls of TS Galaxy headquarters.
As South Africa’s football community grieves alongside the club, one thing is clear: this loss is not just about blood ties.

It’s about a community, a legacy, and the kind of quiet strength that keeps a team — and a dream — alive.
The chairperson’s mother may no longer be physically present, but her spirit will continue to live on in every match TS Galaxy plays, in every challenge they face, and in every victory they celebrate.
In this moment of sorrow, we extend our deepest condolences to the TS Galaxy chairperson and his entire family.
May they find comfort in the love that surrounds them, and strength in the memories that remain.
Rest in peace, Mama.
🕊️💔
