For Ouaddou, this will be a second appearance in a cup final this season, following his triumph with the Buccaneers in the MTN8 after overcoming Stellenbosch in September.
Ouaddou insists they will do whatever it takes to ensure the trophy finds its way back into the Sea Robbers’ cabinet.
He says he knows Gallants “100%” and understands the team spirit he helped build there, having coached them during the second half of last season.
“The team that we’re playing, I know 100% of the team,” said Ouaddou.
“I know what I left there in the club. I know the team spirit that I built there.
“So, we have to be prepared for that in order to be able to bring this cup to our club.”
