WELCOME ON BOARD
Padel for a Purpose
Last month, FlyNamibia joined forces with Namibia Padel, Future Media, and SPES Charity for a day filled with competitive fun and heartwarming camaraderie at the “Padel for a Purpose” charity event. With tutus, fairy wings, pilots caps, a myriad of other costumes and plenty of smiles, participants gathered to play some semi-competitive padel and raise money to make a difference in the lives of Namibian children.
The event, hosted in support of SPES Charity, drew attention to an important cause: helping children step out of poverty and into a brighter future. SPES Charity's mission aligns with FlyNamibia’s broader purpose of positively impacting Namibian communities. Through initiatives like this, FlyNamibia is committed to creating opportunities that uplift and empower vulnerable groups in the country.
Teams from various corporate partners took to the courts, with paddle rackets in hand and high spirits. As the games heated up, the sense of sportsmanship was undeniable. Friendly banter and laughter echoed across the venue, creating a truly joyous atmosphere. Padel, a fast-paced and exciting sport, proved to be the perfect vehicle for raising awareness and funds for SPES Charity. This sport seems to be fast overtaking the traditional ‘golf day’.
In the end, it was Debmarine Namibia who claimed victory, taking home the title of overall champions. But beyond the scorelines, every participant walked away a winner, having contributed to a cause that will benefit many Namibian children.
A special thanks goes out to all the teams who participated and to everyone who came out to support. Together, we paddled for a purpose, and together, we made a difference.
