Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila (TTM) have made a return to football, they’ll be participating in the 2025/26 Limpopo ABC Motsepe League. The club, which previously campaigned in the topflight and even lifted the Nedbank Cup in 2021, had been off the radar following years of instability and subsequent relegation to the third tier, after which they sold their status to Maruleng Celtics.

The comeback marks a fresh chapter for the Tshakhuma side, who will now focus on rebuilding from the semi-professional ranks. TTM’s return also brings a familiar name back to the Limpopo football landscape, rekindling rivalries with established regional sides and offering fans a nostalgic connection to their past successes.

According to sources close to the club, management has been working quietly behind the scenes to assemble a competitive squad capable of challenging for promotion to the National First Division. While no signings have been officially announced yet, insiders suggest the team will rely on a mix of experienced campaigners and promising local talent.

For supporters in Tshakhuma and the surrounding areas, the news has been met with excitement and hope. Many still remember the club’s fairytale run to Nedbank Cup glory, and the prospect of seeing TTM back in action has reignited community interest.

The Limpopo ABC Motsepe League season is expected to kick off in September, and eyes will be on TTM to see if they can quickly regain their footing and push towards a return to the professional ranks.
