Mr Ian Booysen (29) (pictured), a renowned paramedic and esteemed member of the community, passed away early Sunday morning, after a motor vehicle accident in Walvis Bay. “It is understood that Booysen lost control over his vehicle and drove into a tree and subsequently succumbed to his injuries,” Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa confirmed. The accident ocurred near Pelican Bay Hotel. A source, close to the deceased, spoke to the newspaper about this tragic
event. “Ian was a young paramedic and his death came as a huge shock to everyone. He was well-known in paramedic- and karate circles. He was also known by many for saving their lives, or the lives of their families. In addition, he was wellknown in Shotokan Karate. He started his karate
career in Windhoek as a little boy and obtained his senior black belt. Later on he became an instructor in Windhoek and assisted with many young students. He did so well and represented Namibia on many occasions as a participant, a referee and sometimes at Coastal Competitions, as a medic. When Ian Continues on page 2

Sewage water is flooding N$800 000 worth of electric cable recovered premises in Duin Street and also Namib Street in the surburb for Two suspects were arrested on theft charges in Walvis Bay after they and two other employees of Chinese Harbour Engineering Company allegedly the past two weeks. “This is a nightmare and it is ongoing for weeks now that we are compelled to live in this conditions. When I want to take a bath, I have to go to someone else’s house. When we flush the toilets, the water pushes up through the drains and the same happens when we use the shower. The stench is ut-

stole equipment belonging to the company. According to Nampol’s Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa the two suspects were arrested on Saturday morning in Kuisebmond, while the other two suspects managed to flee and remain at large. “It is suspected that the four suspects used the truck which the company
uses to transport unwanted materials to the dumpside, to transport the electrical cables, in order not to raise any suspicion,” Kashuupulwa said. She added that it is still unclear what time the incident took place, but the company's close circuit cameras might shed some light on it.
The police recovered the cables worth N$800 000 and returned it to the company. China Harbour Engineering Company won the contract to extend the N$3 billion (USD250 million) bulk container terminal in Walvis Bay, by reclaiming land from the Atlantic Ocean.

An assistant train driver who died when he allegedly jumped from a moving train he was travelling in, to avoid being involved in an accident at Kalkfeld on Saturday evening, has been identified. day at Kalkfeld in the Otjozondjupa Region. Kalkfeld is situated approximately 70 kilometres south-west of Otjiwarongo. Khairabeb explained that some five empty petrol tankers belonging to TransNamib had been parked on the railway line at Kalkfeld Railway Station for the past two days. The empty petrol tankers were supposed to be removed from there on by Monday this week. He said a TransNamib train that carried container goods and fuel tanks was coming from the direction of Omaruru to Otjiwarongo at the time of accident. The senior police officer said it is suspected that the rail intersection point was removed by an unknown
person, and this led to the train diverting to the railway line on which the five empty petrol tankers were parked. Khairabeb said when Kandidus realised what was happening, he allegedly jumped out of the train and died instantly upon hitting the ground. A 51-year-old driver, Richard Lambert allegedly also jumped out of the train but sustained serious injuries. He was taken to the Kalkfeld clinic and shortly thereafter transferred to Otjiwarongo Mediclinic, where he was reportedly in a stable condition on Monday afternoon. Police investigations into the matter continue. NAMPA

Swakopmund Magistrate’s Court report
when it comes to fighting crime. According to the committee the problems associated with crime and safety is an on-going challenge for businesses and local residents. “The cause of crime is complex and varied, and only by working together effectively on a broad range of issues can we continue to create a safer, vibrant and more prosperous community,” Savva elaborated on behalf of the committee. The PPRC added that the Walvis Bay Municipality is armed with bylaws and regulations that can be effectively used for crime prevention and that the enforcement of these laws sends a clear message to the public about how the
city of Walvis Bay works and about the rule of the law. Savva further added that some of the bylaws like environmental laws, health laws and land laws, which have helped manage illegal squatting and also target unlawful business activities, which could be fronts for more serious crime, have been steered effectively by municipalities aimed at crime reduction. However the formulation and enforcement of these bylaws is the responsibility of various municipal departments and co-ordination will therefore be important in the successful use of the bylaws, preventing crimes such as the illegal selling of alcohol in some places.
PPRC urged the public to help with the fight against crime and to stop harbouring criminals and turning a blind eye to crime, but to instead stand up and do their part in bringing the perpetrators to justice. “Walvis Bay is by international standards a safe city so let us work together to make our town an even safer place to live in. Although crime is on the decrease for the past two years, it remains an issue and the community of Walvis Bay must work together to eradicate the criminals and create a safe and harmonious environment for our people and by doing so, encourage investors to come and invest,” Savva concluded.
Domestic worker guilty of jewellery theft Leandrea Louw
Ms Sylvia Mans, a local business owner, recently fell victim to a crime, when her domestic worker stole seven of her and her daughter’s rings. The domestic worker was employed for the period of 15 April to 28 May 2015 at their residence, and it is during this time that the theft took place. According to Ms Mans, the accused took the rings and sold it to a goldsmith in Kuisebmond for the sum of N$700.
She also noted that they almost did not have a case against the worker, as the police said that they should present receipts as proof of ownership. Luckily they found one receipt and a case of theft was laid against the worker. The domestic worker, Ms Hanzina Kinda (43), ap-
peared in the Walvis Bay Magistrate’s Court on Thursday on a charge of theft – theft from employer by employee. She was found guilty and sentenced to pay a fine of N$4 000 or 8 months imprisonment. She is currently detained at the Walvis Bay Prison.
One-year-old boy dies in vehicle accident Mavourlene Gaes
A one year and 11-months-old boy lost his life in a motor vehicle accident near Karibib, on Friday. According to Nampol’s Deputy Commissioner Otillie Kashuupulwa, the accident occurred on Friday afternoon around 13:00, when the driver of the vehicle lost control of the vehicle and it overturned. “Four children and four adults were in the vehicle at the time of
the accident and one of the children died on the spot,” Kashuupulwa said. The accident occurred on the B32 road, approximately 5 kilometres from Karibib, between Karibib and Namib Naukluft Park. “We later on learned that the driver was not only driving the
vehicle without a licence, but he also drove the car without the owner’s consent,” Kashuupulwa added. She further stated that the police could not release the identity of the deceased, as he apparently was not registered, or owned a birth certificate.

Obtaining Fishing
Permits
WHY? The marine resources are limited and currently some of them are overfished or over collected. It is necessary that everybody uses them wisely and carefully to secure the future harvesting needs by protecting the stock. Quantity/number of marine resources harvestable, minimum size limits of fish and crayfish that can be caught, open season etc. help to manage stocks to avoid the total disappearance of some species in our waters. Do not leave bait or fish on the beach! Either take it home or return it to the sea. This food attracts scavengers like jackals and gulls that prey on other bio-diversity. When you are back home after the holiday, it also inflates the predator population. Where can you get a license for angling, crayfish diving & bait/mussels collection?

They drive and walk anywhere, even in restricted areas, killing our precious animals and disturbing nature.

Safety suspended imports of live oysters from Namibia in December 2014 after laboratory tests detected high levels of cadmium in oyster samples. Cadmium is an extremely toxic metal. In response, the Port Engineer at Namport, Elzevir Gelderbloem who oversees the port expansion
said they have not done any significant dredge dumping at sea and currently use most of their dredged sand for land reclamation. Gelderbloem said it is very easy for the CNFA to blame Namport, but they have obtained expert advice, which in fact shows that
the aquaculture farm at Patrysberg near Swakopmund is in an area where naturally occurring cadmium in the water is high due to natural upwelling currents in that area. NAMPA

Walvis Bay State Hospital stays in hot water After the Walvis Bay State Hospital has already been in hot water for allegedly delivering poor service to patients, another incident occurred recently and almost cost a local resident his life, after a motorcycle accident. Mariette Brand Ek dink persoonlik maak maar die hospitaal toe, of verkoop maar alles en gee/verkoop vir mense wat wel belang stelling het aan/in siek mense en om gee...en nie net opstaan in die oggend om tegaan sit en nie worry nie en tee drink en eet en geld verdien vir niks doen nie! this is NOT the first complain at this hospital!! sick man sick! wonder of hulle ooit almal gerigistreed is vir nursing en verpleeg! bad veryyyy bad! hoop daar word iets gedoen aan die saak.... want soos ek gesè het..this is NOT the firs complain regarding this hospital! hoe sè hulle.jy gaan in half siek en kom uit in ‘n swart sak! Doctora Fannie Namtex What were nurses supposed to do to a patient with skull fractures? They told the patient to wait for the doctor who doesn’t stay in casualty 24/7. People acquaint urselves with more knowledges about nursing scope of practice and for that of the doctors and stop blaming nurses all the times. They can’t even send the patient to an X ray unfortunately to determine the severity of an injury and I’m sure they wud be uncertain to treat bleeding from ears and stuff cos they wud ave ended up jeopardising patient wellbeing. This is intercranial bleeding u ppl are talking about and I’m sure it wasn’t profuse. now tell me why do these nurses are getting all the swearing words on earth? Yet u indicated clearly that the patient was rushed to a private hospital and attended to by the DOCTOR? may u please indicate as well what private nursing practitioners did to save the referred patient? How many people were on private casualty queue and how long did the doctor took to arrive? Yes most of our public/ state hospitals are at their lowest peak of services but let’s know who to blame and when! Vevangaije Jatamunua What the heal is wrong with those nurses at walvis bay hapo if they dont want to work they must go there are people out there who are hungry and want to work go man.
Ester Harmse Shocking, where are the days when nursing was a calling and not just a way to make money? Cindy Williamson My parents live there and have an extra hospital plan. 12 years ago my mum went to that hospital with sugar at 22....more than enough to send you into a coma....the hospital didn’t even have insulin. My dad had to go to the pharmacy to get. Weyers Lorraine The nurses are too fat and old they can’t even walk proper to perform and what do they care they get a salary at the end of month. Shambekelah Tetanga I am appealing to the ministry of health to print and distribute (media included) the scope of practice/ job description for nurses, Doctors and pharmacists coz sometimes we blame people wrongly! Shapu H Nangolo I m sick en tired of some nerses at walvis bay state. There is also one dr who beahave hell to patient she did not even give time to a patient to talk to her. soon she will chase u out. Emile Eckhardt Réshaadt Fire everyone they treat people like ............ the place is falling apart just look at the entrance of the hospital alone if you wanna die young go there u planning ur death in a cheaper way the place stinks but there is cleaners? There is huge holes in the ceiling and everything is unorganised i think they should put white people in charge of the hospital like in the past they took beter care of everyone no racial discrimination just saying but stil fire everyone even the doctors from Cuba they are extremely rude. Martin Mateus M’forzy Shame on the nurses. Atleritha Kandara The top management should be disciplined or fired, period. Dear Marieka are u living in Namibia? Richard Kamwi is no longer the health minister. Christeen Mar-hio They use to say police officers are rude but to b honest nurses are th most rude ppl! im

Its ‘raining’ fish at Langstrand A reader sent in this video of undersized Kabeljou fish stranded along Langstrand. The namib times called the Fisheries Inspectorate Office, Swakopmund, to enquire about this phenomena, and was told that their offices are indeed investigating the matter and that the public should be cautious and not touch these fish. Beau Beaulah If you understand what figure of speech means than you might understand, how in the world would fish rain? Eish Namibians, too quick to talk cr#p! It obviously means Alot of fish have bein washed out, this happened a few years ago with crayfish. Paurl Kavelah The heading is misleading, the author misinformed me as a reader” that will lead to confusions by thinking those fish hav had fallen from the sky. Lee Babyson I hope no one will try to eat this fish. Maximiliaan Mcnab Someone is polluting our oceans, thus the fish is lying along the coast. The relevant people should investigate this. Dawn Els Prolly a freak wave that washed them to the shallows and drained back too fast for the fish to follow... there’s been quite a few unusual surges of sea water along some coast lines, could be a result from recent earthquakes... by the looks in the background, the recent tide moved quite fast since it is still damp fairly wide around and one won’t know how the sandbanks below have been affected.. so
this unfortunate school of fish were just caught at the wrong place at a wrong time.. at least the birds are having a feast. Paulus Mwanyekele I remember this happened in 2010/2011 in Walvis Bay also. Becky Kamba Raining fish lol. Y didn’t they rain in the desert to rain out off the sea etse. This is like manna let’s go grab same fish tog. Petro Blommie Van Schalkwyk Surely it did not ‘rain’ fish. The fish probably just washed out due to something in the water. Like really?! Dino Petersen This is End Times Signs. Jesus is coming soon. Are you ready? Harold Mrmagic Davids There’s a rupture in the water that caused it. Becky Kamba Am going for the naw. I need a hike guy’s. Leonard Leo Kandjiriomuini Early Christmas guys lets go Doublee Elago Weather changes. Paulus Mwanyekele Am I right Sharon Burger? Not really sure about the exact year but it did happen.

Jo-Ann Katamila Ja ekt ook baia bad memories van daai hospitaal en sy traakmy-nie agtige houding. Hoop di nuwe minister kan n verandering maak. Ursula Thomas Ai sal daar dan ooit n vrandering kom.

Ver van dit af wat jy makeer. Maar ja. Viva mr. President we count on you to make a change. Sterkte aan bogenoemde pasient met jou genesing. Marieka de Beer En ons minister of health? Richard Kamwi??? Dit is mos nie hoe dit moet werk nie? Daardie mense word betaal om hulle werk te doen, dan gaan dit so? Ons tax geld word net weg gegee dan? Dareenjie Mwiza Bwezila That problem is nt jst in walvis bay also in keetmanshoop maybe they think those hospitals are their houses and trying to tell people nonsense before helping them Esther Ndeuja It’s a habit,those people you are calling nurse they don’t now what’s being a nurse. Anatjie Botha Hulle moet daai oorsee se dr weg stuur ek het iemand daar besoek en wie ondersoek die mense die suster

It’s a shame Michelle Fourie Wat sě ons President? Janine Andrews Why first complain before something is done? How long does investigations take? somebody must first die although many did already!

‘Bounce & Smile’ for 101 Gondwana Nights Swakopmund hotel to be presented to public A hot tip to get you really excited about the Namibia Tourism Expo (June 10th to 13th in Windhoek) is the hall of the Gondwana Collection Namibia. It is the venue where the latest addition to the lodge group, The Delight Swakopmund, will be presented to the public. To touch and try! The charming hotel in Swakopmund is scheduled to welcome its first guests on 1 November.
Some of the samples they have created as part of their training
Pre-primary teachers in Kuisebmond graduate Liesl Losper Perivoli Schools Trust conducted a ten-month training program towards early childhood development. Saturday, 29 nursery school teachers received certificates for completing this course. The aim of the course is to explain, in simple terms, the developmental milestones and impor tant perceptual skills that are central to learning and vital for success in Grade 1 and formal learning. Mr Mike Chart, country director for Perivoli Schools Trust, explained that the Perivoli Schools Trust aims to support the education of nursery school children in Namibia. “Education is very important, and you as kindergarten teachers play a vital role in a child’s education. I urged you to share what you have learned to other teachers and also stay in contact with other teachers you have met, to encourage each other and also share new ideas. And always enjoy what you are doing. If you enjoy it the children will also enjoy it. The Perivoli Trust recog-
nises that playing is instrumental in a child’s development and that it forms the basis of all learning, especially for children under the age of six. “I have learned to communicate to the learners more effectively and how to deal with children whose home language is other than English, to make them feel part of the group. I have also learned to handle difficult parents and also to help parents to be more involved in their children’s education. I am planning to set up parent-meetings on a monthly basis in order to educate them on how to deal with these small minds,” one of the graduates commented.
Ms Rachel Rhodes, who is spearheading the coastal training sessions, urges parents to enrol their children (0-6 years) at Daycare Centres, where they can be educated by qualified people. She also remarked that the next group of trainees have already kicked off with their training. In Walvis Bay 70 persons registered, Swakopmund (60), Henties Bay (25) and Arandis (7). Rhodes invites interested people, currently working at nursing schools etc. to contact them and register for training. She can be contacted at 081 297 8637.

Support for SWAPO’s Manifesto Swakopmund Matters has noted with appreciation the news in The Namibian with the headline “Swapo manifesto becomes Govt bible”. http://www.namibian.com.na/ indexx.php?id=27460&page_ type=story_detail We wholeheartedly support the Government’s announce-
ment yesterday that “Cabinet had adopted the 2014 Swapo manifesto and directed government offices/ministries/ agencies, regional councils
and state-owned enterprises to incorporate the ruling party’s manifesto into their strategic plans.” It is most noteworthy that
one of the policies which is specifically addressed in that Manifesto and which ALL in Government have now been instructed to implement deals
with the environment. That particular prescription in the Manifesto is worded as follows: “Promotion of policies to protect national marine resources to contribute to the socioeconomic development of the country” and to “continue to devise measures to ensure the protection, conservation and respect of our environment”. Swakopmund Matters stands ready to assist in whatever way we can so that the Manifesto is complied with, in particular as far as the environment is concerned. Furthermore, we pledge full support by making resources at our disposal available to ensure implementation of that which is so important to the Government in reaching its goals as set out in the Manifesto. The overwhelming majority of SWAPO being a near unanimous vote of confidence means that all Namibians now have the duty to side with policies that will be based on that Manifesto. It is most significant that senior SWAPO members have already had strong criticism of marine phosphate mining even before the Manifesto was issued at the time of last year’s election. These are some of their pronouncements in this regard: • The Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Bernhard Esau, expressed in the National Assembly on 19 April 2013 his opinion on marine phosphate mining as he was “concerned about the impact on the fisheries sector.” • The then Speaker, Theo-Ben Gurirab, added his very clear standpoint: “I am against the idea that phosphate is mined from the seabed.” He reminded members of the recent SWAPO Party Congress and the strategy it adopted: “Fish is a renewable resource – phosphate is not.” • The first President and Founding Father of Namibia, Dr Sam Nujoma, added his opposition to phosphate mining along the Namibia coast in an interview
with New Era which was published on 17 December 2013. The following is quoted from that article: “The Founding Father of the Nation, Dr Sam Nujoma, supports the stance by the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Bernard Esau, against the planned phosphate mine along the coast that poses a devastating threat to marine life. Recently the fisheries minister said he is not willing to put at risk the country’s renewable resources by supporting the planned phosphate mining venture whose benefits are shortterm but whose impact on fisheries could be long-lasting. Last week Nujoma told New Era he fully supports the patriotic stance taken by the minister of fisheries because phosphate mining has short-term benefits compared to the fisheries sector whose benefits are long-term. Nujoma made it categorically clear he is against phosphate mining at the coast that could have a detrimental effect on marine life. The founding father said in no way should the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources allow the architects of the planned phosphate mine to proceed with their operations because phosphate mining would damage the country’s fisheries sector, particularly hake.” Namibians will keenly observe how Government officials implement what is now expected of them and how those outside Government will accept the determination of the SWAPO leadership to adhere to its Manifesto in full. The Manifesto’s environmental commitment and the approach taken by those quoted above stand in sharp contrast with that which SWAPO Party’s newspaper, Namibia Today, conveys in a recent article by highly praising marine phosphates mining and promoting it as “Key to Namibia’s Industrialisation”. http://www.swapoparty.org/phosphate_mining.html Swakopmund Matters 17 - 2015

Face of Namibia founder member, Mary Ankonga, organised a gala dinner at a local restaurant in Walvis Bay in order to raise funds for her campaign concerning the prevention of Gender Based Violence (GBV) and baby dumping, on Friday evening. According to Mary the reason why she decided to launch this campaign is because every other day one reads media reports about a woman that either dumped her baby, or a woman that was brutally murdered by her boyfriend. “GBV has to stop because the actions of the parents have consequences and the children are the ones left orphaned or thrown away,” she stated. The campaign is set to be launched in August with the idea to take on challenges of Women and Poverty, Education
and Training, Women and Health, Violence against Women, Women and Armed Conflict, Women and the Economy, Power and Decision Making, Institutional Mechanisms, Human Rights, Women and Media, Women and the Environment, including the Girl Child and Babies. Mary added that the campaign aims to raise awareness and trigger action to end the global scourge of violence against women and girls. “The campaign will hopefully help us symbolise a brighter future in which there is no violence
amongst us. Once the campaign is launched we are also planning to organise events and will visit schools and the streets and interested parties will also be able to join conversation through social media where ideas and suggestions will be shared,” she explained. Mary further admitted that she was disappointed in the participation of corporate companies, noting that until now, only six businesses have participated. Mary Ankonga is the founder of Face of Namibia that was officially launched during March 2011.

Winter Knights 2015
Liesl Losper
NAMIB TIMES 17 Every year the Round Table sends out an invitation to businesses to participate in this annual charity campaign. A company then 'buys' an intersection for N$2 500 for 2 hours (from 06:00 to 08:00) to collect money and blankets for the needy. The Winter Knights Project has over the past years grown from strength to strength. This year, Round Table Namibia has again teamed up with Radio Wave in creating awareness and facilitating the collection of blankets, clothes, funds and other donations for those less fortunate and unable to afford the comfort of blankets and clothing for the winter. Once again Round Table 36 (Walvis Bay) was blessed with a successful Winter Knights on Friday. A total of eight corners were “sold.” Collections started at a very dark and cold 06:00 and finished shortly after 08:00. On Friday night Tablers and wives gathered at the Spar corner from 17:30 to 22:30. A donation from Namsov Fishing in the form of blankets was also received on Friday night. The first of the blankets and clothes were distributed later on to some very happy recipients. “Thank you very much to everyone that participated and donated to make this once again a very successful event. Thank you to the following companies that joined in this Friday morning blanket drive namely Bidvest, Cato Fishing, United Fishing Enterprises, Indongo Toyota, Manica, Mpact, Remax Properties, Transworld Cargo. Cellstop also made sure to give all participants Beanies to keep their heads warm,” says Jan Kotze, chairman of Round Table 36. Should anyone wish to make further donations in the form of clothes, blankets or money, please contact Round Table Chairman Jan Kotze @ 081 142 6188 or jan@jnkcivils.com or visit Round Table 36 Facebook page: Round Table 36 Walvis Bay.
Look who we also found at the Winter Knights, smiling WAKA 2015 princess, Nicole Finkeldeh and Colin Peake (from Neptune risk Managers) assisting in the cold
United Fishing Enterprises has been participating since 2013. They have managed to collect the most donations at the coast in all their years of participation. From left to right: Lianie Lombard, Angela Kriel, Pauline Stafford and Ella Mouton

Shalom Expo 2015 sportdag sukses
Met 16 sokkerspanne en sowat 14 netbalspanne wat deelgeneem het, was die Shalom Expo 2015 'n trekpleister vir sukses. Die Bet-el Parish Tamariskia het hul tuisgebakte produkte aangebied vir die dag en daar was ook 'n stalletjie wat heel karkasse te koop aangebied het direk vanaf Uis. Die Topnaars het ook !naras verkoop. Met die sport aksie se wegspring het Shalom Jeug teen Namib Eagles gelykop gespeel en het Shalom uiteindelik gewen met sokker strafdoele (4 – 3). Die Shalom ouer garde het ook 'n span saamgestel wat gelykop gespeel het en 4-3 met strafdoele gewen het teen die //Khoa-!haob

Die ouer garde het ook hul netbal spiere losgemaak en Namib Woestyn het met 17 punte gewen teenoor die Topnaars se 6. “Ons het met 'n geestelike musiekaand die dag afgesluit wat ook 'n reuse sukses was. Hierdie vertoning het sowat 600 toeskouers gelok. Ons wil alle kunstenaars wat kom optree het vanaf Windhoek en Gobabis bedank vir hul onbaatsugtige bydraes wat hulle gemaak. Ons maak weer so in 2016,” het Bernard Kamatoto, een van die organiseerders van die Shalom Expo 2015, gesê.

Kickboxers off to the USA! Leandrea Louw
The Kickboxing Club of Walvis Bay hosted a dinner and a dance on Saturday night as a means to raise funds for the students who will be travelling to Orlando, Florida, USA for the World Championships. The US OPEN, World Championships will take place on 3 and 4 July, where the students will depart form Walvis Bay on 27 June and return on 9 July. The members who are going to attend the World Championship are Sensei Dorothy Bachmann, Lesley Hoaeb and Delano Müller from the Protea Team, Julian Müller from the President's Team, Nathan Oppermann, Jacobus Potgieter, Macquillen Brussel, Vicky Stiemert, Rachel van der Westhuizen, Ewa Pretorius and Rainier Pretorius all from the Development Team. Co- Owner of the Walvis Bay Kickboxing Club Mr Stephen Chambers gave a brief background about the club and where it all started for Sensei Dorothy Bachmann. “Sensei Dorothy Bachmann started her Kickboxing career in 2005 and she received her black belt in 2007. In July 2007 she attended the World Championship in Florida USA for the first time and achieved a gold Medal g i v i n g h e r Wo r l d Champion status and one silver Medal. She was also four times South African National Champion. In 2008 she received her first Dan Black Belt and in 2011 her second Dan Black Belt. She is currently
busy with her third Dan Black Belt. She started the Walvis Bay Kickboxing Club in 2011. Under her leadership, in 2012, the club attended the Destiny Tournament in South Africa for the first time, which is the biggest Mixed Martial Arts Tournament in Southern Africa. The club sent 13 athletes and won 7 medals. Julian and Delano Muller also qualified to attend the World Championship in Florida USA where Julian Muller became the World Champion in the age group 16 - 17 years under blue belt. Delano Muller received second and third places. In 2013 the club sent 11 Athletes to the Destiny Tournament in South Africa and won 14 medals. Three athletes, Julian and Delano Muller and Lesley Hoaseb qualified for the World Championship in Florida USA. This time around Julian Muller achieved three Gold Medals which made him three times Wo r l d C h a m p i o n . Delano Muller achieved three Third Places and Lesley Hoase b two Silver and two third places. In 2014 the Walvis Bay Kickboxing Club was able to send 23 Athletes to attend the Destiny Tournament in South Africa because off the very generous sponsorship from Mr Wessie van der Westhuizen of the Namibian Breweries
for the amount of N$120 000 under the Vigo Brand. The athletes obtained 38 medals and 15 athletes qualified to a t t e n d t h e Wo r l d Championship in Florida USA but unfortunately only 11 athletes will be attending because of such high costs involved. We really are working very hard to make kickboxing a national sport in Namibia and we are already registered by the Namibian Kickboxing Federation. This year Sensei Dorothy Bachmann will be trying to get Namibia registered in the USA so that we can attend all tournaments as a Namibia National Team.” A short demonstration about the different areas of kick boxing were also given by Sensei Dorothy Bachmann and her students. The different areas include sports fighting, continued fighting, tag- team fighting, self-defense and creative dance, just to name a few. Mr Wessie van der Westhuizen, Managing Director of Namibia Breweries, said that 2014 was their first year sponsoring the Walvis Bay Kickboxing Team. “If the team performs as well as they are doing now, I am positive that our relationship will just grow stronger. As a corporate citizen it is my duty to raise awareness of sport areas
SQUASH NOTES
Namib Diesel Social League
Brrrr … Hands clasped around a hot cup of coffee is one of the few nice things on a cold winter's night. Thank goodness squash is an indoor sport. The start of the Namib Diesel Social League last week, was as usual, amazing. It was so great to see all the courts being utilised and so many people on the pavilion. Good support is always magic… To the newcomers it's a completely new ballgame. Enjoy. The results for Wedrd nesday the 3 were as follows: Woermann Brock Hardware & Building Supplies [4] vs Gateway Logistics [2] 1. Trevor Grane vs Jaco de Witt 3 - 0. Trev was smoking and cleared the gateway to a possible good league for the team. 2. Danie Jansen vs Richard van der Meer 3-2. With sheer perseverance, Danie slogged it through to
the end of a long match to stake his claim. 3. Trevor Heath vs Jörn Wormsbacher 30. For Jörn to serve out on a match point for Trev is a no-no. You made it easy for him, Dude. 4. Oscar Fernandez vs Gerhard Hough 3-0. Oscar nailed it with his rapidness around the court. 5. Mauricio Rangel vs Craig Hearn 0-3. Craig's power play was a bit too much for Maricio to handle.
6. Zeenid Martins vs Jenny Lombard 1-3. With Jen's experience it was 'logistically' always going to be an uphill battle for Zeenid. Fuel Pump Repairs Africa [3] vs Supatronix [3] 1. Clifford de Witt vs Michael Stauder 3-0. At full throttle Cliffy's always going to be hard to beat. 2. Matthys Robberts vs Ze de Britto 0-3. Supa play by Ze. Sheesh, these guys had some long rallies,

must have been some aches and pains the next day. 3. Dirk Bosman vs Severiano Campos 30. With Severiano still coming to grips with squash, Dirk pretty much cruised to a good win. 4. Arlene Visser vs Doyle de Haas 3-2. A good match. Arlene managed to flick on the reserve and get the better of Doyle. 5. Michail Pretorius vs Toya Louw 1-3. Toya faltered slightly, but no worry, turned on the power that packed the final punch. 6. Dina van der Meer vs Conny Becker 0-3. She's got the power. Yep, Conny still has those blasting shots she's renowned for. Seawork [4] vs Coastal Car Hire [2] 1. Jan de Smit vs
Wynand Breytenbach 3-2. A tight match. Jan just managed to pip Wynand at the post. 2. Peter Pahl vs Sharde Fisher 3-0. Peter pushed himself and got a good catch. 3. Blackie Zwart vs Martin Krause 0-3. No extra mileage, Martin made it as economical as possible. 4. Anneke Grobler vs Desire Tuit 1-3. A great comeback result for Desire. 5. Sam Webster vs Bruce Stewart 3-2. A good, long fight just the way Sam enjoys it. 6. Bernette Louw vs Zola Nel 3-0. Bernette's hard and fast game a bit too much for Zola to handle. Rent-A-Drum [0] vs FCS [6]…. Wow! Immediately noticeable when a team has to use a reserve and
the other members have to move up. 1. Stefan van Tonder vs Imanuel Amorongo 1-3. Imanuel's calculated strategy paid off big time. 2. Bertus Fokkens vs Jenny Pahl 0-3. Jen took it in her stride, it seems. 3. Bykes Muashekele vs Pieter Beukes 2-3. It seems Pieter did not have it all his own way. 4. Jakkie Nel vs Christo van Wyk 0-3. 5. Jacques Serfontein vs Ettienne Beukes 03. The lighties have too much energy, eh Jacques? 6. Christina Beukes vs Connie Olivier 0-3. Connie produced the magic to notch up a good win. Magic Discounters [1] vs Namibia Fishmeal Processors [5] 1. Leslie Bosman vs
Borja Romero 3-2. This must have been a fast and exciting match to watch. Les just managed to outlast Borja. 2. Cabous Olivier vs Brandon Grane 2-3. Another close match. Brandon came out tops. 3. Carla Cummings vs Zaan de Witt 0-3. W/O 4. Poena Olivier vs Lindsay Lottering 03. W/O. 5. Hein Bam vs Luther Mostert 0-3. W/O. 6. Joyce Steenkamp vs Anna Maria Venter 0-3. Anna Maria's craftiness still paying off big time. Yep, with an extra two teams participating this year, me thinks the socials is gonna be a good one.

Kudus Teach the Students a Tough Rugby Lesson Leandrea Louw The Kudus Rugby Club sent the Unam Rugby Team back home with their tails between their legs, after a defeat of 29 – 10 on Saturday. The game between the two Premier League teams kicked off on a fast pace. Unam was in the Kudus’ territory within the first minutes of the game and everyone could clearly see that they were determined not to go home as the losing team. Unam’s fly-half, Heinrich Olivier scored first when they were awarded a penalty, but Kudus struck back when Immo Dresselhaus, flanker, scored the first try for his team. Unfortunately full-back, Aurelio Plato, missed the conversion, score 3-5. Unam tried very hard to score but the Kudus defence line meant business, it was a tough game and everyone were kept on
their toes as no one really knew what will be the outcome of the game. At half-time the score stood at 5-3. The second half kicked off on a high note for Unam, when their prop, Veii Hauta scored their first try and Heinrich Olivier, a successful conversion, which set the score for his team at 10 – 5. The tension and frustration was clearly felt throughout the game. Rayton Paulse, scrumhalf, scored the second try for the Kudus, and Aurelio Plato, another successful conversion. Unam received another penalty but Heinrcih Olivier unfortunately missed the chance to score. Kudus’ Mark Nangoro, prop, put his
strength to the test, when he scored another try for his team, followed by a conversion by Aurelio Plato (19-10). Referee Stefan Van Wyk, issued a yellow card to Kudus’ substitute, lock Grant Nash and later on for Unam’s Mbapewa Kauuva for a high tackle.

Sharks, Walvisbaai speel gelykop Marshallino Beukes Saterdag se wedstryd tussen die West Coast Sharks van Swakopmund en Walvisbaai Rugbyklub was soos verwag ‘n riller, met beide spanne wat nie ‘n duit teruggestaan het nie. Dit was ‘n klipharde, fisiese wedstryd en veral tussen die voorspelers het dit soms rof gegaan. Die tuisspan, West Coast Sharks, se ondersteuners het binne die eerste vyftien minute van hierdie titaniese stryd gejubel en juig, nadat senter, Jaco-Martin Venter die telbord met ‘n drie geopen het. Heelagter, Derick Moolman, maak geen fout met die verdoeling nie en bring die telling op 7-0 te staan. Hierdie was dan ook die halftyd-telling. Walvisbaai het met die aanvang van die tweede helfte verwoed begin aanval, maar die Sharks se verdediging het rots-
vas voorgekom. Ongeveer tien minute voor die eindfluitjie sou blaas, het die Baainaars egter deur die verdedigingslinie van die Swakopmunders gebars en agter hul doellyn gaan kuier. Buitesenter, Jason McCalpine was die drie-drukker en Jaco Loots se skopskoen het sake gelykop gemaak. Die West Coast Sharks het die laaste 5 minute van die wedstryd behoorlik geboer in Walvisbaai se kwartgebied, maar kon net nie die punte kry nie om die transaksie te beklink nie, en die wedstryd het gelykop (7-7) geëindig. Die Sharks se flank, Johan Cornelissen, is
as hul speler van die wedstryd aangewys. Na die wedstryd is daar lekker gebraai tussen die twee spanne en almal het dit geniet. West Coast Sharks wil van die geleentheid gebruik maak om dankie te sê vir Desert Creek Spur in Swakopmund vir die ontbyt wat hulle Sater-
dagoggend daar geëet het. Volgens hulle is dit daardie heerlike ontbyt wat die manne die nodige energie gegee het om ‘n lekker, harde wedstryd te speel. Die Sharks se volgende wedstryd is Saterdag, 13 Junie, om 15:00 teen Polytech by die SFC sports gronde.
