In a team with a mix of players from Johannesburg’s townships and South African heritage players from Victoria, Connor became an unofficial leader, providing direction and support to his teammates. He consistently stepped up to carry the team, especially when competing against strong teams like Fiji, Nauru, and Tonga. His efforts, both as a player and mentor, were instrumental in the team’s improvement, culminating in a memorable victory over PNG.

Connor’s positive attitude, work ethic, and respect for his teammates were noted by his coach, Steven Moody, who has extensive experience in coaching football at various levels. Well done, Connor
