The Premier Soccer League has confirmed the Betway Premiership Monthly Awards winners for the April period.

The accolades went to representatives of Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates.

Coach of the Month

Mamelodi Sundowns' coach Miguel Cardoso scooped the award for the third straight time after leading his club to three wins and two draws in five matches.

Cardoso faced competition from Kaizer Chiefs' co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef after guiding their side to three wins in their five fixtures in April.

This award went to Pirates' winger Oswin Appollis. The diminutive attacker scored four goals in four matches.

He also provided one assist during the period in question.

Goal of the Month

This honour also went to Orlando Pirates wide man Oswin Appollis. His long-range strike against AmaZulu at Orlando Stadium on the 18th of April showed his class.

The April judging panel was formed of journalists and pundits, including the following: BBK Kortjaas (Sunday Times/Power FM, Convenor), Vaylen Kirkley (NewZroom Afrika), Reggie Ndlovu (SuperSport), Jabulani Dlamini (Siyakhula Sports News), Mihlali Baleka (The Star).
