Former Pro.
Passionate Coach.

Calvin Sosibo is a former professional player with exceptional technical abilities, bringing firsthand elite experience to every training session. His playing career took him from Kaizer Chiefs' development ranks all the way to the Turkish Süper Lig and Bafana Bafana's senior national team.

Now, he channels that wealth of experience into coaching at IIE MSA Senior Men's & Women's Soccer Teams, Crawford International School, and Trinity House Little Falls — all based in the Ruimsig area. He also served as assistant coach at La Masia / MM Platinum in the National First Division.

A holder of the CAF/SAFA B Licence, Calvin is passionate about grassroots and developmental football, committed to nurturing talented players across various age groups, genders, and cultural backgrounds. He continuously refines his expertise through peer learning and a genuine love for the game.
