The much anticipated disciplinary hearing of Likuena coach, Tony Hey, will be held on October 7 at Bambatha Ts'ita Sports Arena and will be open to the media.

A charge sheet sent to all the coach’s known addresses in both Germany and South Africa, requests Hey to appear personally on October 7, failing which the hearing process will proceed in his absence.

LEFA President, advocate Salemane Phafane, said the executive committee has however not yet decided on how many members of the executive will sit over the case, where Hey is being charged with among others, failure to scout  for and recruit players for Likuena during the winter break.

Advocate Phafane said Hey will also be charged with failure to appear before the LEFA executive committee as requested as well as failure to respond to letters written to him by his employers and for being away from work without permission.

Hey's South African based agent has also been notified about the recent development as well as the Ministry of Gender and Youth, Sports and Recreation.

The German coach has a three and half years contract and was expected to among others, rebuild the national team for African Cup of Nations as well as the Council of Southern Africa Football Association (COSAFA) Castle Cup competitions.
