Saturday, 23 May 2026: The South African Communist Party (SACP) congratulates Orlando Pirates on its treble-winning 2025-2026 season.

Having captured the Top 8 Cup an unprecedented four consecutive times, the League Cup trophy, as well as the Premiership title means that Orlando Pirates have won three historic domestic trebles in the Premier Soccer League era.

Winning the Premiership Title, in particular, means that Orlando Pirates will be one of four South African clubs to represent the country in continental tournaments in the coming season. The SACP calls upon all South Africans to support all the clubs that will be representing the country in both the Caf Champions League and the Caf Confederation Cup.

The SACP reiterates its call for the deepening of sports development in the country. There must be more support for women’ sports, in particular, with more focus on townships and rural areas where apartheid spatial development was most felt.

FOUNDED IN 1921 AS THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF SOUTH AFRICA.
