Bohlale Mafokate: Young Biking Champion

Every child possesses a special talent. Some are gifted with special talents from birth while a few are developed when identified over the period of growing years of the child. A talent can be obtaining good grades, musical skills or become an excellent athlete.Black kids are often villainised by the society and it makes them grow up with no dreams.

You can be sure that the wrongs committed by a black child will be reported, but the good things they are doing are often kept under the radar. Bohlale is a truly amazing and talented child , He is doing great in Kart race . Unfortunately, not enough noise is being made about him, He is going to play a part in changing the world and taking it by storm.

Bohlale Mafokate, also known as The Littleman may only be 4 years old, but he is making headlines for being the youngest short circuit racer,#110 is his race number derived from his date of birth which is 1st October.

In August 2018 The Littleman came number 7 on his first race at Zwartkops Kart Circuit which is is over 1000m long. He didn’t stop but proceeded to Polokwane and completed with number 9.

It is true when they say practise makes perfect after coming number 11 at Laserfische in Vereeniging, he jumped straight to the 3rd position on February 2019, at Zwartkops. The Little man’s skills are becoming finer everyday, On his fifth race at Polokwane Short Circuit Race Track he became number 4.

He has 5 more races for the season including next weekend in Pietermaritzburg at IDube Kart Circuit.

Bohlale is coached and managed by his father Zenzele Mafokate. For various reasons, many children in South Africa are living without their fathers in their homes or absent from their lives entirely. This is an issue all across the world and the children are having to deal with the disadvantages caused by the lack of support from their fathers.

We hail Zenzele for breaking the pattern of raising fatherless sons and developing such a great talent.
