It is a time when people shift focus from their day-to-day activities and celebrate the day in different ways.
Southern Eye Sport spoke to different sports personalities to find out what they will be doing tomorrow.
Chicken Inn captain and Warriors defender Felix Chindungwe said he will not be able to spend the day with his family since he would be in Harare.
“I will spend Christmas with my friends Charles Sibanda, Danny Phiri, Kudakwashe Mahachi, Simba Sithole, Masimba Mambare and Milton Ncube in Harare. I cannot travel to Bulawayo because we are breaking today and resume camp on December 26. I will just go out for a braai. It is sad that I will not be able to spend Christmas with my family, but I am on national team assignment. The family knows and understands that I am at work and that is where I get money so that they survive. They will just send me pictures so that I see what they will be doing,” he said.
FC Platinum forward Sibanda who is also part of the Warriors team in camp for the Orange African Nations Championships said he will also not be travelling to Zvishavane.
“We are only breaking on Christmas day so for me to travel to Zvishavane will be too hectic because we are expected back in camp on Boxing Day. So I will just spend time with my friends,” he said.
