Tanyanyiwa signed for the South African first division side in 2007 but injury saw him take early retirement. The 29-year-old subsequently joined the technical team.
The course he attended was the first of its kind in South Africa. It was an elite goalkeeper-coaching course offered to goalkeeper coaches from the Premiers Soccer League, National First Division and armature leagues. – Chris Ncube
