The world of football has always been a realm where talent and passion come together to create opportunities. For children in many areas, football is not only a sport but a pathway toward a better future. However, for many township children, access to quality training, mentorship, and opportunities can be limited. This is where partnerships like the one between Besteam Sport and the TX Titans Football Academy step in to bridge the gap, providing both resources and support.
Besteam Sport, a dynamic and growing sports brand, has proudly partnered with TX Titans Football Academy as its official technical partner. This collaboration will provide the academy with high-quality playing kits and support that will help shape and elevate the experience for the young athletes. Under the guidance of Trevor Mzwakhe Xaba, the founder of TX Titans Football Academy, this partnership will not only equip the players but also serve as a platform for nurturing township football talent.
The Vision Behind TX Titans Football Academy
The story of TX Titans Football Academy is one of passion and vision. Trevor Mzwakhe Xaba, a resident of Daveyton, founded the academy to provide opportunities for children who otherwise might not have access to structured football training. Trevor's journey in football began long before the inception of the academy. As a coach at Benoni Northerns, Trevor was already making an impact on the field. Yet, he always harbored a bigger dream—one where he could create his own football academy that would primarily focus on township children.
“I’m a coach at Benoni Northerns, but it has always been a dream to have my own academy,” Trevor explained. His inspiration to start TX Titans stemmed from realizing that township children don’t get the same opportunities as children from more affluent areas. “I started introducing some of these players at Northerns,” he said, noting that the potential he saw in the kids was simply too great to ignore. This gave birth to TX Titans Football Academy, a place where the talents of township children could be nurtured and developed.
Trevor's academy is not just about football—it’s about providing equal opportunities. "I believe all children are equal and deserve equal opportunities," he said. His vision is deeply rooted in a sense of fairness and the belief that talent knows no bounds, regardless of where a child grows up.
A Dream Powered by Experience
Trevor’s love for football is more than just a passing interest; it’s been a defining part of his life since childhood. As a young player, Trevor began his journey at Daveyton Swallows FC, playing from under-10 to under-14. His talent and dedication soon saw him moving on to Old Bens FC at the under-17 level, before joining Benoni Spurs FC for under-19s in 2005. It was during this time that Trevor played alongside notable footballers like Trevor Mathiane and Musa Nyatama, who now play professionally for Lamontville Golden Arrows and Swallows FC, respectively.
These formative years not only gave Trevor valuable experience but also fueled his passion for coaching and developing young players. “I still play football because I love it, and I really enjoy working with children and teaching them everything I now know,” Trevor said. His transition from player to coach was a natural progression, and through his coaching at Benoni Northerns, he honed his skills further, ultimately preparing him to launch his own academy.

Whether they pursue a career in football or not, the lessons they learn through the academy will stay with them forever.
