There isn't much to tell about Lucky Lehlohonolo Lekgwathi that the whole South African soccer fraternity doesn’t know. Hardworking, disciplined, committed, determined, passionate and a loyal servant of the club who always gives 100% effort on and off the field. Lekgwathi has a proud record in the black and white colours that speaks for itself- with more than 100 league appearances, two PSL titles, the BP Top 8 trophy, two PSL runners-up medals, Absa Cup silver medalist and other numerous pre-season winners and runners-up medals under his belt, the 35-year-old veteran defender remains the second most accomplished player in the present squad after Joseph 'Dukuduku' Makhanya.
"I have enjoyed every moment in the Bucs ship and scored great goals for the club, but one match that remains the best in my career so far is the 2-0 victory over Dynamos during our 65th Anniversary match at the Orlando Stadium, Soweto in 2002.
