SOCCER NEWS - Paris United is battling to improve its position on the league table as the Thembalethu-based club fights to avoid relegation from the regional league.
The team endured a challenging weekend, playing three matches and collecting just two points from a possible six.
Despite their struggles, Paris United showed resilience in their latest fixtures.
On Sunday morning, 31 May, they played out an entertaining 4-4 draw against Infantry School at Lawaaikamp Stadium.
