Stellenbosch FC secured promotion to the Premier Soccer League (PSL) for the first time on Sunday afternoon.
The Stellies clinched the 2018/19 National First Division (NFD) title despite drawing 0-0 with a stubborn Maccabi FC side at the Idas Valley Sports Ground.
Steven Barker's men finished the campaign at the top of the standings three points clear of runners-up Royal Eagles.
Coach Barker, who also guided University of Pretoria to their maiden promotion to the PSL in 2011, proved his coaching credentials again.
The Stellies were only established in 2016 and they will now be campaigning in the top flight of South African football.
