Mayor commends disciplined protest

Several residents of Mbekweni held a protest march on Wednesday (11 March). They marched from Mbekweni to the Drakenstein Municipal building where they handed over a memorandum of grievances, demanding electricity at their homes. According to Mayor Gesie Van Deventer, the Mbekweni residents clearly stated that they do not want free electricity, but prepaid electricity metres, so that they can buy electricity for themselves. “It shows responsible citizenship and I also want to commend the residents for the disciplined way in which they behaved in presenting the memorandum,” said Van Deventer.

Man arrested for attempted theft

A 32-year-old man from Mbekweni was arrested after allegedly using a ‘jamming’ device to gain entry into a vehicle in the Paarl CBD. Sindile Ndwendwe (32) was apprehended by police after a witness saw him use a ‘jamming’ device to open a Toyota Fortuner after the owner had locked it, and alerted police.

Ndwendwe was arrested at the scene and allegedly found in possession of a remote control used for “signal jamming”, said Paarl Police spokes-

person Captain Louise du Plessis.

The ‘jamming’ devi- As illustration. ces used are identical to normal remote controls, used for electric gates.

Ndwendwe appeared in the Paarl Magistrate’s Court on Monday on a charge of attempted theft out of a motor vehicle. He will remain in custody until his next court appearance on 24 March.

Motorists are yet again urged to make sure that their vehicles are locked before walking away from it.

Rioolpuntbevestiging in Wellington Drakenstein-munisipaliteit is besig met ’n proses waartydens die aantal toiletpunte per eiendom in Wellington getel word.

“Dit het vir ons nodig geword om die korrekte getal toilette per erf te bepaal ten einde te verseker dat huishoudings korrek aangeslaan word,” het die munisipale bestuurder, Johann Mettler, gesê.

Munisipale veldwerkers sal elke perseel besoek en die getalle word dan op die munisipaliteit se finansiële stelsel aangeteken en bevestig.

Thanks to information received from the Fairyland Neighbourhood Watch, the Paarl-East police arrested Andile Magqabi in Fairyland who handed over an illegal firearm to the neighbourhood watch. Magqabi was found with the presumable stolen firearm on Monday at 03:00. He appeared on Tuesday 3 March in the Paarl Magistrate’s Court on a charge of the illegal possession of a firearm. Warrant Officer Alta Booysen shows the firearm, which was found in the suspect’s possession.

Persele wat beskik oor voorafbetaalde elektrisiteitsmeters, se nommer op die meters sal ook bevestig word in hierdie proses.

“U word versoek om hierdie veldwerkers toegang te gee tot u perseel sodat die bevestiging gedoen kan word. Elke veldwerker is voorsien van ’n munisipale identiteitskaart en moet dit ten toon stel.”

The Paarl West Community Policing Forum (CPF) in partnership with the Paarl Police would like to inform the public of crime tendencies as recorded for the period of 1 - 8 March. ) Residential burglaries: Incidents occurred in the farming area in the vicinity of the Keerweerder, Lustigan, Windmeul and north Agter Paarl roads. Two arrests were made for burglaries in this area.

In Lemoenkloof, Groenvlei and Northern Paarl, burglaries were reported in Moll, Church, School, Cornelle, Koning and Oranje Streets while in the areas of Courtrai, Vrykyk and De Zoete Inval, incidents occurred in Buitekant, Lorraine Streets and Main Road. ) Business burglaries: Business burglaries occurred in the farming area in the vicinity of the R44, Roggeland, R45 and Swawelstert Roads.

How to deal with toddlers who hit and bite Our little angels are not always the angels we perceive them to be. They can just as quickly turn into little monsters. Here is some advice on how to treat these temper tantrums and more.

) Why does my toddler get aggressive?

Shocking as it may be to you (and others), aggressive behaviour is a normal part of your toddler’s development. His still-emerging language skills and a fierce desire to be independent can lead to frustration and anger. Add undeveloped impulse control into the mix and your toddler’s hitting or biting is completely normal.

That doesn’t mean you should ignore it, of course. Let your toddler know that aggressive behaviour is unacceptable and help him to develop other ways to express his feelings. ) How can I stop my toddler being aggressive?

Reward good behaviour. Rather than giving your child attention only when he’s misbehaving, praise him for being good whenever you can. For example, when he asks to have a turn on the swing instead of simply pushing another child out of the way. Aim to give your toddler the most attention for positive behaviour, and cut the time you spend on negative behaviour.

Heap praise on him when he says what he wants, and be specific and honest with it (”Well done for asking to have a go!”). Remember also to praise his efforts to do something even if he doesn’t manage to pull it off. (“Well done for asking the little girl if you could have a turn. I know she didn’t answer and you got frustrated, didn’t you?”) This helps your toddler to build confidence and feel good about himself. In time, he’ll realise how powerful words can be.

Use the following tactics to deal with undesirable behaviour: Follow up aggressive behaviour with logical consequences If your child gets into the ball pit at the indoor play centre and starts throwing balls at the other kids, take him out.

Sit down with him and watch the other children play. Explain that he can go back in again when you both feel he’s ready to join the fun without hurting anyone.

Try not to reason with your toddler, for example, by asking him, “How would you like it if she threw the ball at you?”

Toddlers aren’t yet able to put themselves in another child’s place or to change the way they behave based on reason. This cognitive maturity doesn’t usually happen until children are four or five. But toddlers can understand consequences.

Illustration.PHOTO SOURCE: GOOGLE IMAGES ) Keep your temper Shouting, hitting or telling your child he’s naughty won’t get him to change his behaviour. He’ll just get more riled and learn, from you, new things to try. ) Set clear limits Try to respond immediately whenever your toddler is aggressive. Don’t wait until he hits his brother for the third time. Warn him that if he goes on hitting he won’t be able to play with his brother. If he doesn’t stop, remove him from the situation for a minute or two. Explain to him that what he did was wrong. Then let him let him go back. ) Be consistent Whenever you can, react to each episode the way you did before.

Your predictable response (“The rule is gentle hands, remember”)

will set up a pattern that your toddler will recognise and come to expect. Even when you’re out and mortified by your child’s behaviour, don’t lash out at him through embarrassment. Remember, other parents have been there too. If people stare, simply say, “Anyone want a two-year-old?” ) Teach alternatives Wait until your toddler has settled down, then talk calmly about what happened. Help him to name his emotions, listen to what he is telling you and accept his feelings, even if they are angry ones. Ask him if he can explain what made him upset. Stress that it’s natural to have angry feelings but it’s not fine to show them by hitting, kicking or biting ) Ask your toddler what the rule is.

Once he’s lashed out he will probably be happy to tell you what the rule is, even if he didn’t follow it.

Asking him to remember the rule reinforces the behaviour you expect and, gradually, this will sink in. ) Limit screen time Cartoons and other shows for young children can be filled with shouting, threats, even pushing and hitting. Limit the amount of screen time your toddler has, and monitor what he watches, particularly if he’s prone to aggression. Some guidelines recommend that chil-

dren aged two and under should have no screen time at all. ) Help your toddler to be active Unless your toddler gets a chance to burn off his abundant energy, you may find he’s a terror at home. Give him plenty of unstructured play time, preferably outdoors, whatever the weather, to let off steam.

Guidelines recommend that children under five should be active for at least three hours a day, every day. ) Encourage downtime As well as being active it’s also important to encourage your toddler to have down time, playing quietly by himself. Doing so means he learns to stimulate his imagination and to amuse himself without relying on you. ) Don’t be afraid to seek help Sometimes, aggressive behaviour requires more intervention than a parent can provide. If your toddler often behaves aggressively, upsets other children, or if your efforts to curb his behaviour have little effect, talk to your doctor. She may refer you to someone who specialises in child behaviour.

Together, you can get to the bottom of the behaviour and help your toddler through it.

Remember, he is still very young.

If you work with him patiently, the chances are that his violent outbursts will soon be a thing of the past.

Could my child’s academic achievements be linked to a hearing loss?

With the commencement of the new educational year well underway, many a parent or guardian will have had contact with their child’s teacher(s) during parent evenings and the like. Every parent however dreads being told that their child is not performing as he or she should be.

“Before possibly labelling your child incorrectly, it is pertinent to be aware of the fact that children who experience a hearing loss, often present with many of the same signs as children with learning difficulties,” says Tally Sherban, aClientRelationsExecutiveatOticonSouthAfrica,aleading hearing aid manufacturer. “These can range from a lower academic achievement than their age, background or IQ scores would predict, or even inattention that is frequently related to frustration and fatigue,” she adds.

Tell-tale signs to look out for in a pupil with a hearing loss: ) Inappropriate responses to questions ) Watching other pupils to see what they are doing ) Articulation problems – speech difficulties ) Fatigue, especially at the end of the day ) Academic failure ) Poor self-concept ) Day-dreaming ) Apparent laziness If your child exhibits any of these signs, it would be wise not to assume that your child has learning or behavioural problems. “The first step to helping your child is to rule out hearing loss by taking your child to an audiologist who will look at any history of hearing loss or ear infections, and perform a hearing test to establish what your child’s hearing ability is,” explains Tally.

“If your child has a hearing loss, it is vital to inform your child’s teacher(s) of the situation as they have a tremendous

impact on their pupils’ learning, self-image and social adjustment,” Tally explains. “Working with pupils who have a hearing loss requires a team approach from the parents, classroom teacher, speech and language therapist and audiologist to determine the individual needs of each pupil and to develop an appropriate educational plan,” she adds.

Focus on your child’s self-image is crucial throughout the process, as he/she will most likely perceive themselves as being different, especially if they are wearing hearing aids and/or utilising an FM system (wireless communication) in the classroom. “Help your child to accept how their hearing impairment makes them different, while emphasising that hearing loss is not their only descriptive characteristic. Focus on positive aspects and facilitate an understanding of what your child’s hearing loss is and how it affects their everyday lives. Classmates will also benefit greatly from this knowledge,” suggests Tally.

The primary function of amplification in the classroom is to provide access to speech information and facilitate learning. In most cases, hearing aids will benefit the child with a hearing loss, but in specific listening situations, such as in very noisy classrooms, hearing aids alone may not be enough.

“FM systems such as Oticon’s Amigo range, work with a child’s hearing aids to enhance the speaker’s voice for better speech understanding and immediate relief in the classroom. It typically comprises of a microphone/transmitter worn by the teacher and a receiver that hooks on to the hearing aid worn by the child. If this is an option that you are considering, it would be advisable to discuss the matter with your child’s teacher(s) in order to garner their support,” says Tally.

Star Star Signs Signs CAPRICORN

22 December to 21 January

Some selfless generosity or an effort on behalf of someone in need will make you feel very happy now. You are receptive to beauty at this time and want to be surrounded with harmony, beauty, and kindness. Also, you feel tender and gentle toward others, and you want to please or to be of service to them in some way.

AQUARIUS

21 January To 20 February

This is a time for making long-range plans, seeing the big picture, and thinking about what is really important to you in the long run.

The trivial details and business of day-to-day living does not dominate your attention now. Reading books or articles of an inspirational nature or on subjects of personal growth and development is very fruitful now.

PISCES

20 February to 21 March

Your mood and attitude is conciliatory, and your need for love and approval heightened. Social gatherings and personal relationships are favored. You are receptive to beauty at this time and want to be surrounded with harmony, beauty, and kindness. Also, you feel tender and gentle toward others, and you want to please or to be of service to them in some way.

ARIES

21 March to 21 April

Today it is easy for you to concentrate on your work, to eliminate what is superfluous or distracting you from what you really need to do. You have the self-control and discipline to apply yourself to tasks that you may have been avoiding. You want to put your affairs in order and have a greater tolerance for tedium than usual. This is a good time to tackle mundane chores and practical business.

TAURUS

21 April to 21 May

You are highly ambitious, full of optimism and enthusiasm for new enterprises and plans. In fact, you may be foolishly overconfident and take on more challenges than you can really meet. You are inclined to take physical risks, gamble, speculate, and to act on faith and belief in yourself. This can, in fact, be a very productive time for you if you can keep your expectations within reasonable bounds.

GEMINI

21 May to 22 June

Flexibility, thinking on your feet, and the ability to accommodate the unexpected will be called for now. The pace is very quick. You will be pulled in many directions at once and will tend to scatter your forces, jumping from one thing to the next. Positively, you may come up with some fresh, original plan or insight that may seem crazy at first, but which is likely to be quite useful.

CANCER

22 June to 23 July

Interactions with children or family members can be a bit frustrating, as if you are repeating the "same old words" and not really getting anywhere. On the other hand, things you may have felt for some time but have not voiced may pop out of you unexpectedly, creating some minor tension or embarrassment.

LEO

23 Julie to 24 August

An incident involving miscommunications, missed messages, or missed meetings which causes a change of plans is likely. Coworkers, secretaries, receptionists, and other people you may normally take for granted, but who keep the flow of your life running smoothly, may be unaccountably inconsistent or simply keep you at bay.

VIRGO

24 August to 23 September

Conversations and sharing plans and ideas with others are very fruitful now. You understand what others are telling you, and you make yourself clearly understood also. This is a favorable time for getting your message across to others via writing or speaking. A new health regimen, actions taken to advance professionally, or anything you do to move toward achieving a cherished goal or ideal goes well now.

LIBRA

23 September to 23 October

A new health regimen, actions taken to advance professionally, or anything you do to move toward achieving a cherished goal or ideal goes well now. Shared enthusiasm for some project or athletic event is accentuated now. This is a good time to coordinate your efforts with others and really get something started.

SCORPIO

23 October to 23 November

You are eager to discuss your thoughts and plans with others at this time and you may have a very fruitful brainstorming session, a spirited debate, or a very active meeting with others in which things really get accomplished. You are verbally assertive and can present your own plan or idea quite convincingly.

SAGITTARIUS

23 November to 22 December

You may aggravate or pick at a friend or loved one in the misguided belief that you can change things. At this point, however, it is unlikely that your words or actions will create happiness or the desired outcome. Try to be good natured about any differences that are apparent to you now, and let it pass.

Jy die Entrepreneur: Kwalifiseer jy vir die toekoms?

DAVID MALHERBE

In die lig van die hoë werkloosheidsyfer word baie aandag deesdae aan die bevordering van entrepreneurskap gegee. Baie organisasies adverteer gereeld opleidings- en hulpprogramme vir voornemende entrepreneurs.

Ekself was al van 1990 af betrokke by entrepreneurskap-projekte by ’n hoërskool en sedert 1994 was ek ’n lektor in Entrepreneurskap.

Daardie tyd al het ek vir my studente gesê dat daar waarskynlik ’n tyd sal kom dat die beste manier om van ’n werk verseker te wees, sal wees om vir jouself ’n werk te skep.

Die afgelope 20+ jaar word hierdie stelling net meer en meer bewaarheid. Selfs om vir die grootste organisasie te werk, is nie meer ’n veilige hawe vir iemand wat werksekuriteit soek

nie. Volgens ’n aanhaling wat ek gelees het, is werksekuriteit iets wat nie meer bestaan nie.

Daar is egter ’n ander ontwikkeling wat gedurende dieselfde tydperk baie sterk na vore gekom en ontwikkel het, naamlik die internet. Net so belangrik as wat dit is om die entrepreneurskap-opsie as ’n loopbaan te oorweeg, is dit om die rekenaar en internet te kan gebruik.

Rekenaars en die internet speel deesdae so ’n groot rol in die ekonomie dat enige entrepreneur of besigheid sonder toegang tot die internet, dit al hoe moeiliker vind om dieselfde vlak van dienslewering as mededingers te bied.

Ons ekonomie het ontwikkel in ’n rigting waar inligting en kennis daagliks al hoe belangriker word. Alhoewel ’n besigheid se sukses of

mislukking nie in die eerste plek bepaal word deur die tegnologie tot jou beskikking nie, maak die afwesigheid daarvan tog dat jou onderneming minder mededingend is.

Rekenaars en die internet gaan ook nie gedurende die jare wat kom verdwyn nie, inteendeel, dit gaan vir enige werk of besigheid net al hoe belangriker word. Feitlik alle besighede wat deesdae werkgeleenthede adverteer, benodig werknemers wat rekenaarvaardig is.

So watter raad gee ek deesdae vir mense? Nog steeds dat ons enigste hoop op werk dalk kan wees om vir jouself te werk, maar óók dat jy so rekenaar- en internet-geletterd as moontlik moet wees.

Moenie uitstel om dit te leer nie; die tyd is nou.

Connect at your nearest library next week

From 14 to 21 March South African Library Week (SALW) will be celebrated with the theme “Connect @ your library”.

The theme resonates with the belief that libraries connect people to each other, to knowledge and information, to print and electronic resources, to technology and professional support.

Libraries are taking the lead in being active community partners towards developing an informed and educated nation.

Libraries are fast emerging as technologically enabled environments, which provide individuals the opportunity to connect to the internet, databases, online learning and research tools, employment opportunities and digital libraries, which include institutional repositories.

In recent years, the Drakenstein libraries have followed the theme of connecting

through the installation of computers with internet access, and recently the Provincial Library Services added to the infrastructure by installing computers with internet access at the Nieuwe Drift and Bergendal libraries. This is part of the ITC Rural Connectivity programme implemented by the Western Cape Government as part of their e-Government Strategy.

Connecting important public spaces in rural areas, like libraries, to the internet, opens up a whole new world of opportunity and education to residents who cannot afford these services. Drakenstein librarians will connect to their respective communities during this week with various programmes and library users will also get a chance to return late and overdue books during the “fine free” period from 14 March to 18 April. Enquiries: 021 807 6260.

Entrepreneurial competition South African entrepreneurs rarely receive the acknowledgement they truly deserve, and should be praised for the role they play in the creation of jobs and economic development in the country.

This is according to Nazeem Martin, managing director of Business Partners Limited, who was speaking in light of the recent 2015 Sanlam/Business Partners Entrepreneur of the Year competition launch which took place in Johannesburg.

Now in its 27th year, the pre-eminent entrepreneurial platform continues to pay tribute to the fearless entrepreneurs who remain dedicated to not only fostering a culture of entrepreneurship in the country, but also to their business and staff.

Martin says that, considering South Africa’s unemployment rate is at 25% and that it was recently announced that South Africa will have the 8th highest unemployment rate globally in 2015, the role that entrepreneurs play in aiding job creation is evident.

“The six 2014 Entrepreneur of the Year competition winners collectively created over 400 jobs, while our overall 2013 Entrepreneur of the Year winner generated over 800 jobs in the rural area of Qwaqwa. These figures confirm the pivotal role entrepreneurs play in jobcreation,aswellasthemoreprominent role they could play in this space with additional support.

“By embracing local entrepreneurship, the competition provides them with an opportunity to showcase their achievements and elevate the business’s profile.”

The competition provides entrepreneurs with the chance to win prizes up to the value of R2 million, which includes cash prizes to the value of

R350 000. Competition winners will also receive valuable mentorship support, networking opportunities and national media exposure.

Martin says that apart from the prizes offered, a key takeaway for past finalists is the opportunity to take a step back and analyse their business, both by themselves, and along with an independent judging panel. “Often, entrepreneurs don’t fully comprehend how far their business has developed and grown over the years, and the networking opportunities with other entrepreneurs and judges allow these individuals to fully appreciate their achievements and the hard work and dedication that has gone into building their business.”

The competition also provides finalists and winners with the opportunity to obtain valuable regional and national publicity.

One such example is Dudu and Leema Mofokeng, joint owners of Legaci Dry Cleaners and Laundry Services, and winners of the Judges Prize in the 2014 Sanlam/Business Partners Entrepreneur of the Year competition.

“The exposure gained from the competition has raised the profile of my company significantly. I have noted a marked increase in business enquiries received from customers, as well as prospective investors wanting to open a franchise,” says Dudu.

Entrepreneurs interested in entering the competition can download entry forms online at www.eoy.co.za as well as interact with fellow entrepreneurs and entrants on the Sanlam/ Business Partners Entrepreneur of the Year competition social media platforms www.twitter.com/ @EOY_SA and www.facebook.com/ EOY.SA. The closing date for the competition is 16 June.

Paarlstreekspan klop Roses in tawwe Derby Die langverwagte rugbystryd tussen die Paarlstreekspan en die hoogaangeskrewe Roses van Wellington het Saterdag plaasgevind voor ’n groot skare van oral uit die Boland.

Albei spanne, wat bekend is vir hul opwindende hardlooprugby, het dit gestand gedoen met aanvalle uit alle hoeke van die veld. Paarl het eerste punte aangeteken met ’n strafskop deur Ryan Jordaan, en Percival Williams het kort daarna ook ’n strafskop aangeteken vir Roses om die telling 3 elk te maak. Jordaan het nog ’n strafskop oor die pale geskop nadat Roses telkemale gestraf is vir onkantspel by losskrums.

Geoffrey Allies het daarna ’n drie gedruk vir Roses, nadat Paarl vir Neville Adams met ’n rooi kaart verloor het vir geniepsige spel. Williams het Allies se drie verdoel.

Die Paarl-manne het nie toegelaat dat dit hulle onderkry nie en antwoord met ’n verdoelde drie deur Kempton Kika, maar hulle verloor nog ’n man met ’n geel kaart vir ‘illegal cleaning’.

Roses verloor ook hul skrumskakel met ’n geel kaart vir vuilspel. Jordaan het die strafskop oorgesit en met minute speeltyd oor voor rustyd het Jordaan vir Christoper Mouwers binnetoe gestuur vir ’n skitterende drie onder die pale, wat hy ook verdoel het. Met die telbord op 23-10 vir Paarl, het die manne gaan water

drink om hul kragte op te bou.

Ná rustyd het Roses teruggeslaan met ’n drie ná hulle die 14-man verdediging uitgebuit het. Die Bolandse manne kon net nie aanpas by die WPskeidsregter nie en is vir die soveelste keer gestraf vir oortredings by losgemale, terwyl Jordaan weereens daarin kon slaag om die strafskop oor te sit.

Paarl gaan druk ook nadat Tabetie mooi gebreek het en die bal aangegee het aan die stut Jeandre Coetzee vir nog ’n verdoelde drie. Die skeidsregter het egter ander planne gehad en wou seker keer dat Paarl nie met Roses weghardloop nie. Nog twee manne is hierna koelkas toe gestuur met

15 minute se speeltyd oor.

Roses het die kans gebruik en teken twee drieë aan deur Leon Carstens en Dale Watts, maar dit was steeds nie genoeg om terug te kom in die wedstryd nie.

Al die manne het meer as 100% gegee, maar Ryan Jordaan was die man wat uitgestaan het bo almal met slim spel op die aanval, sowel as op verdediging.

Paarlstreek het die wedstryd welverdiend met 33-25 gewen. * Eerskomende Saterdag reis die manne na Vredenburg vir hul laaste wedstryd van die kompetisie en moet vyf punte kry om moontlik te kwalifiseer vir die uitspeelrondes.

The Paarl Police recently had a “drilling” session at Noorder Paarl High School during the school’s family day celebrations.

Soetbly-speelgroep dagsorg het verlede Vrydag Wêreld Kaalvoetdag gevier.

Hier wys die groep dat hulle hul skoene uitgetrek het om aan minderbevoorregtes te skenk wat nie skoene kan bekostig nie.

Die matrieks van Hoërskool Labori het onlangs hul jaarlikse kamp by Bergkroon gehou. Hulle het die kamp afgeskop deur bymekaar te kom en hul kamermaats te leer ken. Hulle het deur die verloop van die kamp aan spanbou-aktiwiteite deelgeneem en ook aan ’n potjiekos-kompetisie deelgeneem. Daar was ook ’n aand waar hulle ’n lofprysing-kerkdiens gehou het.

Hier staan Wilhelm Prins en Andries Carstens by hul potjiekos wat hulle saam gemaak het.

Hoërskool Noorder-Paarl se atlete het aan die onlangse Roland Bastiaan-atletiekbyeenkoms deelgeneem. Klein Nederburg Sekondêre Skool is as die algehele wenners van die dag aangewys.

Tiere van Young Peoples steeds aan wenkant Die Tiere van Young Peoples is steeds op koers in die Premier A-liga nadat hy Saterdag op Dal Josafat ook maklik met Worceste United afgereken het. Die span het ook weer ’n bonuspunt ingesamel en is steeds 9 punte voor sy naaste teenstander met net 2 wedstryde oor.

Worcester het eerste gekolf en kon slegs 163

lopies aanteken. Kaptein Lorenzo Jacobs het van voor af gelei en 3/24 platgetrek. Hubert Ontong, 2/28 en Lee -John Julies, 2/51, het ook hul deel met die bal bygedra. Die Tiere het Worcester in die 15 de beurt op 46/5 teen die planke gehad, maar die verloor van fokus het die besoekers toegelaat om te herstel.

Peoples het soos ’n warrelwind afgesit en ná 10 beurte reeds 101 lopies op die telbord gehad.

Nadat Wade October vroeg uitgehaal is, het Jacobs en Bjorn Hollenbagh ’n vennootskap van 87 in net 54 balle gedeel en die Worcester-boulers na al die uithoeke van Dal Josafat gemoker. Jacobs, 56 en Hollenbagh, 31, het besluit om bonuspunt te jaag, en met die hulp van Brendon Gabriels, 23 en Randall April, 20 die teiken in die 26 ste beurt verbygesteek.

Die klub se tweedes was ook in ’n verwoes-

tende bui en het Mbekweni in ’n T20-wedstryd met 10 paaltjies geklop. Mbekweni het eerste gekolf en kon net 69 lopies aanteken, met Jarrier Alexander, 5/12 die Tiere se skerpste angel.

Marvin Nicholas, 36* en Leswin Scholtz, 31* het die wenlopies in die 7 de boulbeurt aangeteken. * Saterdag speel die Tiere weg teen Van Der Stel in sy voorlaaste ligawedstryd.
