NIGEL DIXON FOOTBALL ACADEMY Bush Buck Sports Academy NPC, a non-profit organisation has been established to improve the lives of tomorrow's stars.

Heading this dream is of course, the chairperson, Sturu Payisa and technical director Nigel Dixon. The academy was started in 2014 before going public in 2015. The academy is affiliated to the Bunkers Hill LFA in East London. The academy was well supported by the local communities with 90 players registering in its inaugural year. Bucks Bucks was able to field the following teams, U/13a, U/13b, U1

Proud of our Under-17 boys after a fantastic performance against the Border Select Under-19 squad.

Playing two halves of 40 minutes against an older, stronger, and more physically mature side made up of selected players from the East London schools, our boys showed incredible character, determination, and courage throughout the match. Despite the challenge, the team stood their ground and competed with heart from the first whistle to the last, narrowly losing 4-3 in a highly competitive game.

This performance shows the growth, talent, and fighting spirit within our academy. Going toe-to-toe with top Under-19 opposition and pushing them all the way is something the boys can be very proud of.

Well done to every player for the hard work, discipline, and passion shown on the field. The future is bright for these young stars. ⚫⚪⚽

Brothers like these are rare.

A massive thank you to Cameron Ramoo and his beautiful wife Liezl Ramoo and Curtis J. Bennett for believing in me and standing by Nigel Dixon Football Academy from the very beginning. When the academy officially started in 2025, you two became my very first sponsors and helped provide kits for boys from disadvantaged communities — something that meant more than words can explain.

What you did was not just support a football academy, you helped me continue my late father’s dream and the vision we started together back in 2014. Your support gave me strength, motivation, and hope during the early stages of this journey.
I will forever appreciate the love, loyalty, and belief you showed me and the boys. Thank you for helping make dreams possible and for being part of the foundation of Nigel Dixon Football Academy.

Much love and respect always, my brothers. ⚽❤️

A big shoutout to one of our amazing players for showing true sportsmanship and heart! ⚽❤️ Donating your soccer boots to those less fortunate is more than just a kind gesture — it’s a powerful example of teamwork, compassion, and leadership both on and off the field.

You’ve reminded us all that soccer is not just about winning games, but about lifting each other up and making a difference in our community. We are incredibly proud of you Ethan — keep inspiring others! 🌟
