Highlands Park sealed their place in the Premiership after a 2-0 win over Mbombela United.

The win sees the return of coach Allan Freese to the topflight as the club makes its first bow at that  level in 34 years.

The promotion playoffs were decided at the Mahlukong Stadium on Wednesday afternoon after a brace from Peter Shalulile, one in each half.

Promotion was just reward for the Lions of the North who finished just one point behind Baroka in the NFD who have now won 3 out of 3 in the playoffs.
