History of Club
IN 2002 Tuks Football Academy was established. The University of Pretoria prides itself in having excellent sport programmes. One of these programmes is the TuksFootball Club. From the humble beginnings with 30 teams in 2000, the club has 77 teams in 2008. As a result of the growth of the programme, it made sense to establish an academy and aspire to be a key in various leagues. Hence, the presence of the AmaTuks, the University of Pretoria’s 1st team in the National First Division (NFD).
