Ted Dumitru has left a huge gap in the coaching structures of South African football. That was the message of SAFA CEO Dennis Mumble when he addressed the more than 150 coaches who had gathered for the South African Football Coaches Association (SAFCA) at Johannesburg stadium this afternoon at the passing on of the former Bafana Bafana. The 76year-old collapsed this morning at a shopping centre in Eastgate and never recovered from what is suspected to be a cardiac arrest. Dumitru was scheduled as the last speaker to present his latest research findings in youth coaching. Mumble says Dumitru has left a huge void that will be difficult to fill.
