GTM’s Eskom account settled The Greater Tzaneen Municipality (GTM) has settled their outstanding account of R38 million with electricity service provider, Eskom. This after it came to light that many municipalities in Limpopo were in arrears with the electricity giant, the GTM being one of them. A communications officer of the GTM, Mr Neville Ndlala, assured Bulletin this week that their electricity account has been settled in full and that they do not owe Eskom a cent. A month ago the GTM did not pay Eskom, since payment would have caused the GTM not to be able to pay salaries and wages. The cash flow must have improved to the extent that they could pay this month. Ndlala was not prepared to be drawn into a discussion on the details and initially refused to disclose the amount that was in arrears. — Elliot Mathye, elliot@bulletin.us.com Ditsem, so moet mos met ‘n renosterhoringstroper se gal gewerk word! Veldwagters van ‘n private wildreservaat naby Vaalwater is hier besig om vermeende renosterstropers op die reservaat vas te bind, totdat polisie-hulp opdaag. Drie verdagtes is op die plaas vasgetrek en nog vyf ander mense, wat glo deel van die komplot was, is buite die reservaat in hegtenis geneem. Die veldwagters se wakker optrede het gesorg dat die Polisie ’n groot deurbraak gemaak het in die stryd teen renosterstropery. Die agt vermeende stropers, onder wie ’n polisie-reservis van Johannesburg en ’n vrou, is in hegtenis geneem. Sewe word in Modimolle se gevangenis aangehou en die agste een in die dorp se staatshospitaal, waar hy vir ‘n skietwond behandel word. Twee van die agt is Mosambiekers, een is ‘n Zimbabwiër en die ander vyf is SA burgers. — LiN Media Nuus/Die Pos

Vlieg is alewig verstom…! Eintlik kon Vlieg maar hier opgehou het, want hy is alewig verstom, hoewel een sinnetjie seker nou nie by Vlieg se redakteur so goed sou afgegaan het as vandeesweek se bydrae nie! Vlieg is egter alewig verstom as hy die bohaai hoor en lees oor ontgroenings! Die karnuffeling van groentjies is so oud soos die berge! Op hoërskool, in koshuise, op universiteite en kolleges, vir nuutverkose prefekte, soos Vlieg hulle nog geken het, en enige ander plek waar iemand by ‘n groep inskakel deur onder te begin. Vlieg self is al in sy lewe op ‘n paar van voormelde terreine nie net ontgroen nie, maar ook van ontgroening onthef, wat weer ‘n karnuffeling van ‘n anderster water is. En so het Vlieg, en al die groentjies voor hom, en al die groentjies na hom, dit oorleef. Die hare het weer uitgegroei, die velle het

Kan eerlik sê skou sal my nie weer sien nie en nie net vir my nie maar hele paar ander ook. Ek was agter in die hoek gedruk, my stalletjie was tussen Eskom en GTfm, hul musiek het later so hard geraak dat die mense nie eers verder by die gang afgegaan het om ons te sien nie. Baie het omgedrai en gegaan, die beoordeelaars het glad nie eers na my stalletjie toe gekom nie om eers te kyk of alles daar is wat gesê is moet daar wees nie. Nee wat,

Verkeer: Geen plan vir Tzaneen Dit is soos ‘n tref-en-trap-ongeluk! Tzaneen het nie ‘n verkeersplan nie, daar word nie aan een gewerk nie en niemand blyk bekommerd te wees oor die toenemende verkeersprobleme in die dorp nie. Veral in die middedorp gaan dit deesdae al hoe slegter, veral as groot vragmotors by winkels goed moet aflaai. Na sowat 27 maande sedert die Bulletin by die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteuit (GTM) navraag oor die dorp se verkeersplan gedoen het, het die leuens wat aan ons opgedis is, opgeraak en die waarheid is uiteindelik ontbloot. Na ons eerste navraag aan die einde van 2011 is vir ons gesê daar word gewerk aan ‘n omvattende verkeersplan. Ons het agt maande later gevra hoe vorder die plan en toe is gesê dit vorder fluks. Ons het ‘n verdere vyf maande gewag en weer gevra. Die GTM se segsman mnr Neville Ndlala, het toe selfvoldaan bevestig dat die plan reg is en net wag om aan die stadsraad vir goedkeuring voorgelê te word. Dit was die soveelste leuen. Aan die einde van verlede jaar het ons weer navraag gedoen, omdat twee stadsraadsvergaderings toe reeds gehou is en die plan nie op die sakelys was nie. Aan die begin van vanjaar is ons weer verseker dat
die plan wag om deur die raad goedgeur te word. sou dien. Maar soos die spreekwoord lui, ‘n leuen het maar ‘n kort been. Toe ons die afgelope week weer vra oor die versluierde verkeersplan en terselfdertyd vra watter amptenaar by die GTM is die kontakpersoon as ons met behulp van die Wet op die Bevordering van Toegang tot Inligting bepaalde inligting wil bekom, het die einste Ndlala met die sak patats na vore gekom: Daar is geen plan nie en daar word ook nie aan een gewerk nie! — Francois Aucamp francois@bulletin.us.com
• Hierop kan mens maar net jou hande in skok en ongeloof inmekaarslaan, want hoe lank nog dink die stadsvaders kan Tzaneen se verkeerskanale die opbouende druk weerstaan? En waarom is daar oor ‘n tydperk van langer as twee jaar skaamteloos hieroor gelieg? Keur die stadsvaders dié vorm van bedrog teenoor die inwoners goed? As die regerende groep in die stadsraad dink dit is oulik dat die belastingbetalers — én hulle wat nie belastingpligtig is nie — so klakkeloos om die bos gelei word, waar is die opposisie in die raad an? Weliswaar kan gevra word: Is daar ‘n werkende opposisie in die GTM se raad? Of ry almal saam op een soustrien? — Redakteur

No time with new MDM mayor
Tzn gets ‘new’ Post Office Plans for a major upgrading and refurbishing of Tzaneen’s post office building are now in the final stages, says the Post Office’s structural manager, Mr Peter Naicker. “The project is set to be started during the current financial year,” he said Bulletin again asked about the promised renovations after the recent fire that could have gutted the building. Tzaneen’s residents are fed up with the conditions in and around the building. The property has become a dumping-site for especially people living on the streets especially at night.

It is not a safe place at night, the smell of urine is at times overwhelming, the building is visually disgraceful and Tzaneen really deserves better. Naicker said at the moment they are busy to allocate the necessary budget for a major project. It has been said before that the building is likely to be enlarged and modernized. In the mean time minor renovations, such as the re-panting of walls and the re-tiling of some floor areas will be continued.

However, we failed and have to accept that we are back to square one, where the MDM will continue to be run as an autocratic institution. — Joy Mojela joy@bulletin.us.com

Pastor behind bars A 50-year-old pastor of a church in Lenyenye, Lesibana Johannes Magoro, was sentenced to an effective six years imprisonment for raping a 17-year-old girl. The incident occurred in Lenyenye 16 July last year at the victim’s house when her mother was not at home. The pastor went to the victim’s home after the girl’s mother had asked for him to come and pray for her, as she was sick. He was arrested and detained in the Police cells. He appeared in the Naphuno Regional Court on a charge of rape and was convicted. This sentence is highly welcomed by the Police. “It will help to scare off men who consider rape as not a very serious act,” Tzaneen’s Police spokesman, Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe, said.

Agricultural Expo Tzaneen will host the inaugural Provincial Agricultural Expo at the Letaba Showgrounds in Tzaneen next week on Tuesday and will be open until Thursday.

bitions and workshops that would benefit people in small agricultural businesses. It is expected that the expo will benefit farmers representing co-operatives, small holder and commercial farmers, as well as land reform beneficiaries.
Anderdag se dinge
Piesangfees Die lente is om die draai en dis tyd vir die jaarlikse Piesangfees! Vanjaar word die fees herskep met ‘n paar guitige nuwelinge vir groter vermaak. Die fees word op 5 en 6 September by die NG Moedergemeente in Agathastraat gehou, waar kiosks reeds vanaf Vrydag om 13:00 sal reg wees met vars pannekoek, kerrie-en-rys, boereworsrolle en meer. Kaasborde in ‘Antipasto’-styl is deel van die fees-spyskaart en kos net R80 vir twee persone. Kaasborde kan as wegneemetes bestel word of kan Vrydagaand van 17:00 tydens die ‘Kaas-en-wyn’ in die Piesang Piazza geniet word.Wyn sal per bottel/glas verkoop word en musikante sal sorg vir genoeg atmosfeer.Kaartjies is reeds beskikbaar by die kerkkantoor. As deel van die kindervermaak sal Lolliepop die stuitige nar reeds van 14:00 ronddans tussen die kleuters, terwyl ‘Boeresport’ (15:00) en ‘Die Spookhuis’ (open 17:00) vir genoeg aksie sal sorg. Saterdag sorg ook vir ‘n vol program rondom die Teetuin en Piesang Piazza! Van die nuwighede is die ‘Koekedoor-kompetisie’, waarin die manne uitgedaag word om koeke te versier, asook die ‘Kolwyntjie-koningin’ waar dogtertjies kan wys hoe mooi hulle ‘n kolwyntjie kan versier. Soos altyd soek die groente- en vrugtetafel die swaarste piesangtros in die kontrei! Die wentros se baas kan ‘n prys wen. Die Wille-Winskoop-Winkel sal sorg vir oulike tweedehandse winskopies en in die saal sal buite-uitstallers hul tuisgebak, dekor en handwerk ten toon stel. As daar nog uitstallers is wat ruimte soek of vir navrae, bel die kerkkantoor by 015 3074496.
Letsitele se Kersmark Vanjaar word die vyfde Kerskuiermark aangebied en die komitee wat net uit dames
bestaan, met Anneri Vorster as voorsitter, werk reeds hard om die dag weer ‘n groot sukses te maak. Die doel van die Kerskuiermark is om mense en spesifiek kinders in nood finansieel by te staan. Die Kerskuiermark is nie die gewone skoustalletjie of vlooimark nie. Elke uitstaller word vooraf gekeur en so maak hulle seker dat daar eksklusiewe produkte te koop is vir almal — vrouens,mans, kinders, oud en jonk. Heleen de Kock hanteer die NG Kerk se engelfabriek en die vrouens in die gemeente is reeds besig om die mooiste handgemaakte produkte en lekkernye voor te berei. Vanjaar se tema is “Somerkersfees”. Karen van Rooyen help maak als mooi. Daar gaan weer ‘n teetuin wees met sout en soet — die bekende dadelkoek en sjokoladekoek, asook heerlike Quiche en nog meer. Die aand sal ligte musiek deur musikante gespeel word. Die meester sjefkompetisie word weer gehou, plus ‘n junior meester sjefkompetisie. Vir die mammas met kleiner kinders: Anel sal sorg dat daar kindervermaak is. Die Kerskuiermark vind plaas op 24 en 25 Oktober in en om die Letsitele NG Kerk se amfiteater.

Vrydag 22 Augustus 2014
Dr Jan Truter Ned Herv Kerk Letsitele
Landbouskoue Ons het mos bekendheid verwerf as dwarstrekkers (elkeen moet maar self besluit wie almal by die “ons” ingesluit is). Ons stig graag af by die geringste verskilletjie (lees: kerk), ons open graag ons eie inrigting (lees: skool), ons organiseer gou-gou ons eie groep (lees: politieke party), ons trek sonder huiwering laer (lees: kultuur), ensovoorts. Dit blyk erg aansteeklik te wees, want dit gebeur toenemend en is lankal nie meer beperk tot die vroeë nageslagte van die Voortrekkers nie! Die jongste gekheid in ons omgewing is dat ‘n derde landbouskou nou in Tzaneen gehou word. Dit word ‘n ekspo genoem, ter versagting van die feit dat dié een op die oog af meer op ‘n rasgeskeide basis aangebied sal word. Die derde een het die naam Boeredag verwerf. Dus is dit nou skou, boeredag en ekspo. Hoe jammer tog. In plaas van een ordentlike groot skou, is dit nou drie splinterskoue wat elkeen vir ‘n bestaansreg (gaan) stoei en op stuk van sake waarskynlik nie daardie bestaansreg gaan smaak nie. Die aanloop tot hierdie absurditeit word volgens ons waarneming en inligting gevind in verskille wat oor die formaat en omvang van die skou ontstaan het. In plaas daarvan om die verskille om ‘n tafel te gaan sit en uitpluis en tot ‘n vergelyk te kom, word afgestig. In plaas van om betrokke te raak en te help om uit te bou en ’n meer bevredigende, opwindende en finansieel sinvolle skou aan te bied, word afgestig. Intussen dra die GTM geldelik by tot die ekspo (en indirek ook tot die skou). Die einste GTM wat bietjiedag moes kies tussen Eskom betaal, of salarisse en lone; dieselfde GTM wat nie die dorpe (dit sluit Tzaneen, Lenyenye, Nkowankowa en ander in) se parke in stand kan hou nie; daardie GTM wat toelaat dat Tzaneen — tot so onlangs as vyftien jaar gelede ‘n tuindorp, een van die mooiste in die land — stelselmatig verval (strate, sypaadjies, ingange, straatligte, leë persele, ensovoorts op ‘n lang lys af). Dit maak net nie sin nie. Dit getuig nie van visie nie en dit is ekonomies onverantwoordelik. Veral in ‘n ekonomie wat vinnig op ‘n resessie afstuur. Hopelik is daar mense met visie wat kan slaag om die verskillende partye tot ‘n vergelyk te lei. Die alternatief gaan uitloop op drie verloorders!
Die mense hoor
Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie! • Die raadslid wat so lekker saam kla oor die smouse in die dorp, moet haar jammerklag darem in die praktyk uitleef en nie self vrugte by die smouse
koop nie... • Die koop van ‘n plek in die skool (enige skool) se eerste span (rugby, krieket, netbal, hokkie...) is nie meer so snaaks nie. Die koop van die posisie van hoofseun (of -meisie) bly maar snaaks. Mens kan ‘n preek maak daaroor... • Generaal De la Rey het vir hom ‘n mooi orgideetjie gekry...
Slagskaap Wat is ‘n mens werd? Iemand het eenmaal die mens se waarde chemies bepaal en in eenvoudige terme klink dit min of meer so: ‘n Gemiddelde persoon se liggaam bevat genoeg suiker om ‘n koppie koffie te versoet. Genoeg sout om ‘n soutpotjie mee te vul. Genoeg yster vir een groot spyker. Genoeg kalk om ‘n hoenderhok mee af te wit. Genoeg koolstof om as bestanddeel vir sowat 9 000 potlode te dien en genoeg vet vir ‘n paar stene seep. As dit in geldwaarde bereken moes word, is die mens materieel gesien minder as ‘n slagskaap werd. Ons is eintlik maar niks werd nie. Dit is egter die wonder van dit alles. Ons kan God met niks omkoop of ons verlossing verdien nie, maar God het ons, sonder dat ons dit verdien, uit louter genade gered. Ons was vir Hom soveel werd dat Hy sy ereposisie aan die regterhand van sy Vader prysgegee het, om as die minste tussen ons te kom woon. Hy het sy geestelike wese opgegee, om in ‘n fisiese liggaam vasgevang te word. Hy was tydloos maar het sy tydlose bestaan opgeoffer, om aan tyd gebonde te wees. Hy wat alles besit, het nie eers ‘n plek gehad om sy kop op neer te lê nie. Dit het Hy alles gedoen om ons te red. Ons wat minder as ‘n slagskaap werd is, is ten duurste vrygekoop. Christus het dit alles gedoen om aan ons waarde te gee. Die prys van God se genade was sy eie Seun Jesus Christus. Wat ‘n wonderlike voorreg, om aan so ‘n God te behoort! Hebreërs 2: 9 — Christus is vir ‘n kort tydjie minder gemaak as die engele, sodat Hy deur die genade van God vir almal sou sterwe!
Inwoner skets Bali se hartseer storie Die verhaal oor die tragiese verval van die Bali-atjarplaas met sy duur palissadeheining in Broederstroomdrift het nou na vore gekom. Dit behoort aan die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit, maar feitlik alles op die eens florerende mangoplaas het in duie gestort. Die plaas is sowat tien kilometer buite Tzaneen op die R71 na Letsitele. Met die verbyry kan ‘n deel van die palissadeheining duidelik gesien word. Dit het destyds aan Evert Steyn Boerdery (Edms) Bpk behoort. Steyn was een van drie seuns wat elk ‘n plaas in die gebied van hul ma, me Christina Johanna Oceana Stiemens, gekry het. Die grootste
deel van Broederstroomdrift het in die vroeë 1930’s aan haar behoort en as Oceana bekend gestaan. Haar derde naam het sy gekry omdat sy op ‘n Hollandse skip onderweg na Suid-Afrika gebore is. ‘n Familielid van die Steyns wat graag anoniem wil bly, vertel die plaas is in 1998 aan ‘n groep met die naam PKS van Mooketsi verkoop. PKS het ‘n lening van R40 miljoen by Landbank bekom. PKS kon egter nie die lening terug betaal nie en Landbank het op die plaas beslag gelê. Hierna het twee swart beamptes van die Mopani Distriksmunisipaliteit (MDM)
na bewering skenkergeld van ‘n Sweedse maatskappy gebruik om die plaas oor te neem. Die geld was eintlik vir die opheffing van minderbevoorregtes bedoel. Toe die beamptes hieroor betrap word, is die plaas deur die MDM oorgeneem en later aan die GTM oorgedra. ‘n Kontrakteur is deur die GTM aangestel om ‘n palissadeheining van tien kilometer reg rondom die plaasgrens teen R2 miljoen op te rig. Volgens ons bron is net twee kilometer se heining voltooi, maar die kontrakteur is glo ten volle betaal. Die bron sê daar was ses woonhuise en drie woonstelle op die plaas, waarvan enkele strukture
van net drie huise oorgebly het. Die res en al die skure vir die verwerking van mango’s en atjar, asook ‘n weegbrug, is alles vir skroot verkoop. Die plaas het in sy tyd 44 000 mangobome in volle produksie gehad. ‘n Paar jaar gelede het ‘n brand die helfte van die boorde verwoes, terwyl die res nou toegegroei staan onder lantana en ander onkruid. Van die talle plakkers wat op die plaas bly, se strukture is deur die GTM gesloop, maar hulle het tente in ruil daarvoor gekry en woon steeds daar. Van die oorspronklike florerende boerdery het daar egter niks oorgebly nie.
Make a choice, assist CHoiCe
CHoiCe Trust, the Tzaneen based health focused nongovernment organization (NGO), is calling for people to make a difference in the community and donate to support Mopani’s childheaded households and guardians in need. The organization, which runs a number of outreach and fundraising programs to help communities in need in the area, started the Friends of ChoiCe programme for
the community to contribute to the organization. By pledging monthly donations, ChoiCe staff and board members have showed support for the programme. The programme has since helped a children’s home by donating baby formula and disposable nappies after an appeal for help. CHoiCe has also run other
outreach and training projects in the community since the beginning of the year. In February, it expanded its HIV counseling and testing programme and tested 44 people living with disabilities in Runnymede. They also joined with Westfalia to host a wellness awareness event, a first of its kind, at the fourteen farm sites of
Westfalia. Other programs include first aid training to businesses and farms and a charity shop in which women appointed as sales agents for CHoiCe buy goods at competitive prices and resell it in their communities. People can join ChoiCe Trust and make a difference by contacting the office on 015 307 6329. — Joy Mojela joy@bulletin.us.com

Sangoma relocates to his motherland The sangoma who illegally occupied a piece of land along the Letaba River in Claude Wheatley Street, Tzaneen, has voluntarily moved back to his hometown of Giyani. His move came as a result of the erection of a concrete security
fence along the banks of the river, to prevent anyone from gaining access to the river — which was badly polluted by the motor mechanics. According to the Greater Tzaneen Municipality’s spokesman, Mr Neville Ndlala, the sangoma “indicated that he is voluntarily going back home in Giyani and we hope that no other Sangoma shall emerge under the water as the area will be highly protected”. — Elliot Mathye
The “residence” of the sangoma was cluttered with a weird collection of rubbish

Lina Troskie ook weg Net sewe weke na haar man se dood, is me Lina Troskie van Tzaneen Saterdagoggend na ‘n kort siekbed oorlede. Haar dogter Linda sê “slegs sewe weke na pa se dood wou ma liewer by hom wees”. Wyle Lina Troskie laat twee seuns (waarvan een in Engeland woon) en een dogter (Linda), sewe kleinkinders en drie agterkleinkinders agter. “Sy sal altyd onthou word vir haar liefde vir haar gesin, wye kennis van plante en liefde vir die natuur. Haar kunswerke pryk in menige huis en haar hande was nooit stil nie. Sy was altyd besig om iets nuut te skep. Sy sal altyd in ons harte wees,” het Linda gesê.

GTM: removal of illegal posters on track
The illegal posters, which plagued the Tzaneen over a long period of time, may soon be well out of sight, for good. This assurance was made by the Greater Tzaneen Municipality in an effort to clean up the town and rid off all illegal posters.
In an article (27 June 2014), Bulletin reported on the people who violate the GTM bylaws on advertising by putting up illegal posters and those who do not remove their advertisements in time. A GTM spokesperson, Mr. Neville Ndlala said that they are still removing some of the postDraw a picture of someone reading ers, which were left behind, during the 1.

busy working on the removal of these illegal posters. But one should bear in mind that this cannot just happen overnight. Our teams are working tirelessly and the town will soon be free of the illegal posters”. The bylaws of the GTM state the period that posters are supposed to be removed, is three days after an election/event. In an event where one fails to remove the posters within the specified period they forfeit their deposit. Ndlala could not state as to how many organisations had

forfeited their deposits due to violating the bylaws, but explained that most of the advertisers had not come to query about forfeiting a deposit. “we have not received any queries in this regard as these organisations know very well that they had a period of time to remove their posters to avoid forfeiting”, Ndlala added. Ndlala is still appealing to residents, especially business people, to abstain from undermining the GTM bylaws by continuously putting up illegal posters, as they will be heavily panelised. —Elliot Mathye

She has escaped imprisonment by entering into the plea agreement — and she has to pay Food Lovers R5 542 per month for the next five years. If she fails to pay, even just one month, or pays after the 7th of the month, she will be arrested and send to prison, to serve a suspended five years imprisonment sentence. * After Shingwenyana’s sentencing, an unknown person outside the court was overheard referring to the two cases saying: “So… Crime really does pay!” — Editor

Hokkiemeisies vorm sterk eenheid Die o.16-meisieshokkiespan van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster het ‘n goeie hokkieseisoen agter die rug. Hulle het die seisoen as PUK-wenners afgeskop en is met ‘n oorwinning oor die PHS as Limpopowenners gekroon. Daarmee het hul deurgedring na die Noordvaal-kompetisie. Die Vossies het kookwater-hokkie teen die Hoërskool Marais Viljoen en die Hoërskool Die o.16A-hokkiespan (meisies) van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster wat aan die Noordvaal-kampioenskappe deelgeneem het staan hier saam met mnr Naas Botha, (oud-Springbokrugbykaptein). Voor is Talenta Mabunda, Marize Rautenbach, Alison Rudder, Marli Burger, Delmé Barkhuizen en Kagiso Malatje. Agter is Nikki Thompson, Bernice Claasen, Deidre Viljoen, Botha, Jenna Auret, Lané Roos, Gretchen Bekker en Beauty Maake.
Noordheuwel gespeel en het albei wedstryde oortuigend gewen. Teen die Hoërskool Eldoraigne was dit egter in die eerste helfte ‘n moeilike stryd, maar die spelers het na rustyd hard gespeel om in te haal; ongelukkig was dit te laat en kon hulle nie die wedstryd wen nie. Die span het toe tweede in hul groep geëindig en deurgedring na die kwarteindronde. Daar het hulle weer teen PHS te staan gekom en dié keer het PHS gewen (2-1). Die span het die seisoen as eenheid gespeel en individuele spelers kan nie juis uitgesonder word nie. Elke doel wat aangeteken is, was danksy ‘n spanpoging. Die spelers wat wel in die posisie was om af te rond, is Delmé Barkhuizen, Marlé Burger, Bernice Claasen en Beauty Maake.
Krieket-meisies triomfeer teen Pepps Merensky se o.19-meisieskrieketspan het op hul tuisveld teen Pepps van Polokwanwe te staan gekom en die besoekers oorrompel. Merensky se boulers het hul opponente vir slegs 26 lopies pawiljoen toe gestuur en die wedstryd in slegs drie beurte met nog tien paaltjies staande sonder seremonie afgehandel. Kelsey-Ann Mostert het agtien lopies van twaalf balle (nun) geslaan. Sy het ook vier paaltjies vir slegs sewentien lopies laat kantel. Kathleen Horne het vier paaltjies plat
getrek en slegs vyf lopies afgestaan. Na dié slagting het Merensky teen Hans Strydom te staan gekom. Merensky het Hans Strydom almal uitgehaal vir 95 lopies, en toe voort gegaan om die besoekers se totaal verby te steek en die wedstryd gemaklik met ses paaltjies te wen. Kelsey-Ann Mostert het drie paaltjies vir twintig lopies in ses beurte gevat en Merisca Steenkamp het ook drie paaltjies gevat en slegs sewentien lopies in vyf beurte afgestaan.
Die seëvierende meisieskrieketspan van Merensky. Voor is Jeandri van Wyk, Naledi Mailula, Kathleen Horne, Carlize Katzke en Jezza-Rae Larson. Agter is Gwendy Botha, Melissa Steenkamp, Izel Pieterse, Merisca Steenkamp en Kelsey-Ann Mostert.

Stanford u.16’s excelled in Noordvaal Stanford Lake College’s u.16 hockey team travelled to Potchefstroom to take part in the Noordvaal hockey tournament and performed quite well. The team had an exceptional start, winning both group games and ending on top of their group. They beat Eldoraigne 2-1 and Transvalia 3-2. The highlight of the two games was that the team managed to convert three short corners
in the five goals they scored. In the play-offs, they lost to Nelspruit but fought back to beat Krugersdorp 6-2. On the last morning, they played Sasolburg for 5th and 6th place. Although some good hockey was played, they could not convert the chances and drew the game 1-1. They then lost on the eight second shoot out and ended 6th out of twelve teams.
Members of SLC’s u.16 boys team. In front are Madala Honwana, Matthew Maritz and Bryce Reed, and at the back are Rayhaan Tayob, Tristan Schoeman, Mfumo Mongwe, Michael

Ses van Sewes gaan sweef met Arende
Stanford Lake hosts world class field Last weekend saw the running of the inaugural Clemengold Wolkberg 2-day trail run hosted by Stanford Lake College and Clemengold. The run attracted a world class field, with a number of professional trail runners making the journey north from Gauteng to tackle the tough two-day race. Day 1 saw runners leaving the start hosted by the Magoebaskloof Canopy Tours and making their way down into Georges Valley before heading up the tallest peak in Limpopo ‘The Iron Crown’. The summit played host to the Clemengold King and Queen of the mountain with Vivobarefoot pro-runner Anita O’Brien and Naas Janse van Rensburg stealing honours in the dash to the top.
The runners then headed down the mountain and along the Louis Changuion trail before finishing day 1 in Haenertsburg. Day 2 was a busy affair at SCL with runners of all kinds joining the 2-day runners for various events. A 25 km 1-day run as well as 10 km and 4 km trail runs in and around the stunning scenery of SLC, Cheerio Gardens and Broederstroom, made for an enjoyable family day. Mina’s Market, a mountain favourite, as well as a host of other stalls and a kiddies play area ensured that the day was a memorable one for the entire family and and is set to become a must on everyone’s social calendar in the years to come. Bennie Roux, another Vivobarefoot pro-
runner, dominated the men’s 2-day event, winning both days and finishing with an overall time of 04:58:00 with Anita O’Brien maintaining her pace throughout the event going wire to wire with an impressive winning time of 06:01:00. Feedback from the athletes is exceptional and this race should no doubt go from strength to strength in the years to come. The winners: 2-Day Run - Men: Bennie Roux (04:58:00); 2-Day Run - Ladies: Anita O’Brien (06:01:00); 25 km 1-Day Run - Men: Thomas Therma (01:49:00); 25 km 1-Day Run - Ladies: Anita O’Brien (02:12:00); 10 km - Men: Alan Gordon (00:48:05); 10 km - Ladies: Naomi Snyman (00:53:32).

Ses van Merensky se Sewes-rugbyspelers is pas deur die Eastern Eagles Rugbyklub in Pretoria gekies om in Desember die klub in Dubai by ‘n toernooi te verteenwoordig. Dit is ‘n merkwaardige prestasie, aangesien slegs ses spelers uit Limpopo jaarliks hiervoor in aanmerking kom en al ses spelers vanjaar Plasies is!

Twee Vossie-rugbyspanne in Beeld-eindstryd Twee van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se junior rugbyspanne — die o.14A’s en die o.16A’s — speel more in die Beeld-eindstryd vir groot skole in Klerksdorp, nadat hulle die afgelope naweek op hul tuisveld gewen en na die eindstryd deurgedring het. Die o.14A’s het met die Hoërskool Randburg afgereken en die o.16A’s was te sterk vir Potchefstroom Volkskool. Dit was ‘n uiters spannende wedstryd en met minder as vyf minute se speeltyd oor, was die As daar nou een nasie is wat meer kan kerm en kla as Oubal se eie mense, dan is dit die klomp Kiwi’s. Skaars het Oubal verlede Saterdagnag sy seer hoof neergelê of die Vet Sjef van Auckland bel hom wakker. Dis ‘n bleddie skande dat die Magtige All Blacks deur ‘n patetiese SA ref van die wêreldrekord vir die meeste agtereenvolgende toetsoorwinnings beroof is , bulder ou Vettes in Oubal se oor in dié ongoddelike uur. Waar in jou lewe het jy gesien spelers op daai vlak kry geelkaarte vir onbenullighede in ‘n wedstryd van daai omvang? Dit lyk my “julle” refs het geelkaarttrieggherhêppie geraak ! Oubal vra om kalmte en verneem of die naam Bryce Lawrence iets vir Vettes beteken. Minstens het ons (nog nie) vir Jaco Peyper as skeidsregter van die jaar aangewys nie, voeg Oubal by. Maar julle dink mos julle het
Dryf, Manne! vrypas om “op daai vlak” die reëls van rakbie te verbreek soos wat dit julle pas, so moenie nou in Oubal se ore kom huil nie. Buitendien, jy verstaan niks van geelkaarte as jy nie gister se wedstryd op Nuweland gesien het nie, vryf Oubal dit in. As dit nie vir die reën in Sydney was nie, sou die MAB’s die Aussies van hul voete af gehardloop het en dan was julle lot nie nog steeds mede-houer van die rekord nie en nog minder bo aan die 4N punteleër na jul gelukkige wen oor die Argies nie, speel Vettes sy laaste troefkaart in ‘n swak hand. Reën? Reën? Noem jy dit reën! Dis vir
telling 13-12. Die vleuel Shima Molepo was die held van die wedstryd, toe hy in die doodsnikke van die wedstryd vir sy derde drie oorgeduik en die Vossies met ‘n oorwinning van 20-12 hul sake vir die eindstryd kon begin pak. Die o.16A-span het Potchefstroom Volkskool behoorlik afgestof, met ‘n telling van 41-27. Die Vossies se vuurvreter flank, Ruben Koekemoer, het twee keer in die eerste helfte gaan druk en baie bygedra tot die
Oubal duidelik jy’t nie aandag gegee aan wat op Loftus gebeur het nie, VetPêl, anders sou jy nie so ‘n nietigheidjie by jou argument ingesleep het nie. Julle was dêm gelukkig om nie te verloor het nie. Toe sit die verloopte Kiwi die foon in Oubal se oor neer en Oubal slaap verder die slaap van die regverdige met ‘n smaail op sy bakkies! ‘Tja, toe die Bokke aantree vir Nkosi te midde van die monsoenseisoen en die Argies hier neffens hulle staan en tjank, wis Oubal hierdie gaan ‘n toets wees wat nie in kalm waters gespeel gaan word nie. In een van daai grênd losies sal die ouens vandag warm mengeldrankies moet drink, sê KoosKakie, want dit smaak hom hul ysmasjien het nou net ontplof. Hy dink ook nie ‘n bonuspunt vir vier drieë gaan haelbaar wees nie, voeg KK flouerig by. Maar toe die verguisde Klein Gysie daai
momentum wat die rooies kon opbou. Senter Hardu Pretorius,was die ander Vossie-uitblinker in ‘n span waar vyftien spelers hul kant gebring het. Die o.15A’s wat in die ander kwarteindwedstryd gespeel het, is deur Helpmekaar oorrompel en met ‘n telling van 38-3 is dit duidelik dat die Vossies eintlik nooit in die wedstryd was nie. • Die o.14’s speel more teen die Hoërskool Frikkie Meyer, terwyl die o.16’s teen PHS te staan kom.
eerste (en enigste) drie druk, het ons nog hoop gehad dat die Bokke se twak nie te nat sal wees nie. Heyneke moes nooit na jou geluister het met sy spankeuse nie, Oubal, sê GertGrensvegter kort daarna. Pollie van die Paarl kom nie die mas op nie en as dit so aangaan gaan ons skip sink. “Aai ygrie wiff DjieDjie”, sê ArthurIngelsman, “dhei shoeld hêf hêd y Natal boikie et pivvit. Tjaad le Klou whoeld hêf dan matsh better ander de sirkumstaanses. End fôr dat mattir, Kêmmeron vên den Bûrgh and Reik Neitlieng whoeld hêf bien better propposieshens on de whiengs.” ‘Tja, as dit nie was dat Oubal gekant is teen vrouerakbiespelers nie, was Penny Heyns en Natalie du Toit ook seker keuses, maar gelukkig kon ons kop bo water hou! “The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.” — Dolly Parton.
