DUBBELE MOORD: MA SE HART AAN FLARDE GERUK

Broers in Uitsig afgemaai BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind

K

ersfees gaan vanjaar ’n baie hartseer tyd wees vir ’n ma van Uitsig, nadat albei haar seuns verlede week op ’n straathoek doodgeskiet is.

Sedert die begin van 2020 is minstens vyftien mense reeds in Uitsig en Ravensmead vermoor.

Charlton Witbooi (16) en Peter de Villiers (23) het op ’n straathoek gestaan toe twee mans glo op hulle begin skiet het. Albei het op die toneel aan onder meer kopwonde be-

swyk.

Sharon Witbooi, die ma van die oorledenes, sê sy is gebroke oor die dood van haar kinders. “Ek wil net vir die lafaards sê hulle het my alles van my af weggeneem toe hulle my seuns doodgeskiet het. Dit gaan die moeilikste Kersfees ooit wees en ek weet nie hoe ek dit sonder hulle gaan maak nie. Ek weet hulle sou nie wou hê ek moet bly lê nie. Ter wille van hulle gaan ek op my bene bly en veg vir geregtigheid,” sê Witbooi.

Pastoor Adam Alexander, ’n gemeenskapsleier, sê hy vermoed dat die moorde in Uitsig lankal nie meer oor bendebedrywig-

hede gaan nie. “Ek dink al hoe meer die moord en geweld het daarmee te doen om vrees by die gemeenskap in te boesem. Hierdie mense wil ons so bang maak dat ons nie eens meer by ons deure wil uitgaan nie. Op dié manier kan hulle onverpoos voortgaan om hul bose dade te pleeg,” sê Alexander.

Volgens Alexander was die twee oorledenes nie bendelede nie. “Dit is twee seuns wat voor my grootgeword het en ek kan beslis sê hulle was nie bendelede nie. Hul dood is sinneloos en niemand kan dit regverdig nie.

Hul ma is ’n gemeenskapswerker wat veral goeie werk doen met vermiste mense,” sê

Alexander.

Hy sê elke keer as iemand in Uitsig vermoor word, kom die politici met beloftes.

“Uitsig se mense het nou genoeg gehad van beloftes, want niks gebeur nie. Ek weet nie hoeveel mense moet nog sterf voor daadwerklike planne gemaak word nie,” sê hy.

Kapt. Odwa Makupula, polisiewoordvoerder, het die moorde bevestig en gesê die polisie doen alles in hul vermoë om die moordenaars vas te trek. “Soos ons verstaan was daar ooggetuies, dus doen ons ’n beroep op daardie mense om na vore te kom om ons van inligting te voorsien,” sê Makupula.

Paartjie gestraf oor Saru-geld ’n Krediteure-klerk wat vir die Suid-Afrikaanse Rugbyunie gewerk het en haar man is verlede week tronkstraf opgelê nadat hulle meer as R3 miljoen van die unie gesteel het.

Berenice Knockpaal (44) en haar man, Carlo Wayne, is verlede Donderdag in die Bellville-handelshof gevonnis. Die twee is skuldig bevind aan geldwassery en bedrog.

Volgens Eric Ntabazalila, woordvoerder van die Nasionale Vervolgingsgesag (NVG), het die oortredings tussen 2014 en 2018 plaasgevind toe Berenice as krediteure-klerk gewerk het.

Sy het verskaffers se fakture verwerk en hulle betaal. Sy het egter Saru se bankbesonderhede vervang met haar man s’n en R3.4 miljoen daar inbetaal.

Die egpaar het toe die geld gebruik om inkopies te doen en het dit ook onttrek en oorgeplaas na ander rekeninge in ’n poging om die bron te verdoesel.

Die egpaar het twee kinders.

Volgens Ntabazalila is daar aan die hof gesê dit was moeilik om bewyse vir hierdie misdade te kry en dat dit tydrowende ondersoekwerk geverg het. Die NVG het die vonnis verwelkom.

Berenice is weens bedrog 14 jaar tronkstraf opgelê, waarvan sewe jaar opgeskort is. Sy is ook vyf jaar tronkstraf opgelê weens geldwassery. Die vonnisse sal samelopend uitgedien word, wat beteken sy sal effektiewelik sewe jaar tronkstraf uitdien. Carlo is ’n buitevonnis opgelê. Hy is onder meer drie jaar korrektiewe toesig opgelê en is in huisarres. – Nielen de Klerk

Dune Dusters will be in CT soon Red Bull Dune Dusters is coming to the Mother City on 16 December at the Atlantis Dunes to see who can conquer the sand in a brutal 8 km course.

The fittest runners in Cape Town will compete to see who can outlast and overcome the Atlantis Dunes while internally debating whether to tackle the world’s toughest race in shoes or simply barefoot.

Red Bull Dune Dusters is a perfect fit for Cape Town as it’s home to one of the largest fitness communities in South Africa.

Racers will kick off the race at 08:00 and wrap up at 12:00 with the 2020 champion being crowned at one of the world’s most perfect sandy locations that carries an everchanging landscape of pure white sand dunes reaching up to 50 metres high.

With its soft sand and steep dunes, the race challenges muscles athletes didn’t even know they had and running in deep sand also means that one step forward is usually accompanied by half a step back.

But it’s not all gloom and hardship, Red Bull Dune Dus­ters is considered one of the most entertaining races in the world – reaching the finish line makes tackling those dunes all the more worthwhile.

Covid regulations flouted at hospital DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

A

s the second wave of Covid-19 crushes over Cape Town, the trauma unit at Tygerberg Hospital seems to be buckling under the burden.

A reliable and authoritative source divulged to TygerBurger that the trauma unit was flooded with patients last weekend while Covid-19 health regulations were flouted. The identity of the source, known to TygerBurger are being protected.

“There was simply not enough space for all the patients. Patients, lying in trollies and others propped up in chairs very close to each other, were lining up in the waiting area. Little to no Covid-19 screenings were done and patients that should have been in the patient investigation area for Covid-19, were not.

“All systems failed, and patients could not even be properly triaged,” the source said.

Triage systems are methods that system-

atically prioritise patients’ treatment according to how urgent they need care.

It thus influences the order and priority of emergency treatment.

According to the source, panicked trauma staff were told by hospital management that there was not much they could do to salvage the situation.

“With cases increasing this situation is untenable and has to be salvaged to protect patients, healthcare workers and stop the spread of the virus,” the source said.

According to the source, trauma unit staff were desperate and didn’t know who to turn to.

TygerBurger approached the provincial health department, the hospital and the minister of health, Nomafrench Mbombo, with an urgent media inquiry on Friday.

Questions posed centre around how fast and how effectively the situation at the trauma unit can be turned around.

At the time of going to print the department had not responded to these questions.

‘No power in numbers this festive season’ The Northern Tygerberg subdistricts in the metro have been identified as a great concern, with an increase in Covid-19 infections recorded this week in Bothasig, Bonteheuwel, Delft, Durbanville and Kraaifontein.

Contact tracing lead Delaray Fourie continues to monitor cases with her team closely, and has urged residents to keep safe. “There is no power in numbers this festive season,” he says, “for this means we need to avoid crowded spaces or large gatherings. If you do enter a crowded space, like a shop or beach, remember to wear your mask and keep a distance. We cannot let our guards down.

The virus is still here. Power in numbers during Covid-19 means we band together and keep each other safe by following the rules.”

Fourie encourages residents to know their Covid-19 status and take the necessary precautions to prevent the spread.

“If you went for a test you need to isolate until you receive your results,” he said.

“If you have tested positive you need to isolate. Avoid attending any gatherings or allowing close contact with anyone

until you have recovered or have certainty on your status. While this is not an easy journey, we can do our bit by isolating to contain the spread. Together we can overcome this virus.”

Northern and Tygerberg subdistricts recorded six and 15 new deaths, respectively. “Every single resident should assume Covid-19 is everywhere they go and take all the necessary precautions at every point along their journey,” says Fourie. “To protect our loved ones we need to take this virus seriously and change how we take part in everyday activities, from visiting our local malls to doing holiday shopping or attending end-of-year or ‘breaking-up’ festivities.

“It cannot be business as usual amid this pandemic. Wear a mask properly and change it regularly. Remember to wash your cloth mask. Aim to change your mask every day. Continue to practise physical distancing of 1.5 m from others, particularly in crowded spaces, such as queues when shopping. Regularly wash your hands with water and soap, or use sanitiser, whether you’re at home, work or outdoors.”

Crafty creations with Disney In a first of its kind, some of the world’s most endearing brands have come together with Canal Walk Shopping Centre to present a fun series of creativity over the upcoming Summer holidays.

Inspired by Disney’s “From Our Family To Yours” campaign which features a brand new festive advert, as well as the latest and greatest gifting solutions from Disney, Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars, Canal Walk will be offering a variety of locally sourced craft activity kits. Aimed at kids from four to 12 years old, the kits will be on offer in timed sessions every 30 minutes, each day from 16 December to 3 January 2021.

Making for great gifts, Disney, Marvel, Pixar & Star Wars-inspired pencil holders, key rings, jewellery, Christmas decorations and more can be made by willing hands and imaginative minds.

With competitions and prizes galore up for grabs, youngsters are encouraged to dress up for the occasion as their favourite Disney and Pixar characters, Marvel super heroes or Star Wars Jedi’s and Sith’s, with Style Spotters and Fashion Police squads on the look-out for the best dressed.

Alternatively there are a number of

character-led photo stations on site for all to take their selfies and stand a chance to win awesome prizes.

To honour the season of giving, customers can donate to Reach for a Dream and stand a chance to win a Dream Shopping Spree valued at R5 000.

Due to social distancing, and joining the world of digital, Santa will be available for video chats at Canal Walk.

Little ones can chat to Santa face-to-face and tell him all their Christmas wishes.

“Christmas may be a little different this year, but we wanted to continue the tradition of meeting Santa at Canal Walk Shopping Centre,” says Vanessa Herbst, marketing manager at Canal Walk.

“Using modern technology and our strong relationship with the North Pole we managed to book out some one-on-one time with Santa,” says Herbst.

Santa will be online from 11:00 to 16:00 from 16 to 24 December. Appropriate Covid-19 safety precautions and protocols will be in place and will be enforced, for all activities.

Tickets for children are available for R55 per craft activity and free for adults.

Safe haven for vulnerable women and children F

or many non-profit organisations (NPOs) that support victims of genderbased violence (GBV) a constant food supply is of utmost importance.

One NPO that assists such survivors is the Tehillah Community Collaborative, which has been operating a temporary safe haven, House of Magda, for more than 20 years with­out any government funding.

The house is run by Sr Magda Kleyn.

Thankfully organisations such as FoodForward SA do offer some relief.

“Supporting organisations that care diligently for vulnerable children and women are a priority for FoodForward SA,” says Andy du Plessis, FoodForward SA Managing Director.

“They receive nutritious surplus food that significantly reduces their monthly grocery bill. More importantly, they are able to give survivors of gender-based violence the means to leave their abusers.”

For the past decade House of Magda has been offering life changing support from the facilities of the old Avonwood Primary School building in Elsies River. It can accommodate 110 adults and 15 children.

Sister Magda Kleyn runs House of Magda, a safe haven in Elsies River.

Muriel Thebus is one of the many women who are thankful for their support. After falling ill and surviving physical abuse while living on the streets, Thebus was referred to House of Magda by staff at the Elsies River Day Hospital.

She said: “I often went without food and I am very grateful to the people at Elsies River Day Hospital for getting me into the shelter. I­have a roof over my head and a warm bed to sleep in. Most importantly, I get three meals a day and I do not have to be afraid of getting hurt. I am grateful to FoodForward SA for their food donations, as they allows me to have a full tummy and live a healthy life.”

Du Plessis says his organisation’s beneficiary organisations offer life saving support. “Vulnerable groups such as abused children and women are severely impacted by a weak economy, food insecurity and pandemics. Lack of access to food can exacerbate the vicious cycle of abuse,” he says.

“The frustration of not being able to eat or provide for their families can result in gender-based violence, which can lead to a variety of psychological, health and economic consequences for the survivor and her children.”

Limit on people at braai, picnic spots As from last weekend a limited number of visitors will be allowed at picnic spots and braai areas within the City of Cape Town’s nature reserves.

The City manages 21 nature reserves that are popular destinations, particularly over weekends and on public holidays.

Apart from hiking and water activities, some reserves have picnic and braai areas where visitors can relax and socialise with friends and family.

Being open-air spaces, reserves are a relatively safe option amid the Covid-19 pandemic, but the picnic spots and braai areas have become very crowded lately.

The City’s Mayco member for spatial planning and environment, Marian Nieuwoudt, said due to the steep increase in Covid-19 positive cases locally, “the City

has no alternative but to restrict the number of visitors to picnic spots and braai areas as and when needed. This is to ensure we comply with the health and safety protocols required to limit the spread of the pandemic, and to protect our visitors and staff as far as possible.”

Visitors and residents are still welcome, but must wear masks and adhere to social distancing. ‘‘Those wanting to have a picnic in a reserve are advised please to adhere to the restrictions, should they arrive at their destination and the picnic or braai area cannot hold any more people at a safe social distance,’’ said Nieuwoudt.

The restriction on the number of visitors at picnic and braai areas will apply as follows:

. currently until further notice; . as and when needed, depending on the number of visitors; . in accordance with the Covid-19 health and safety protocols; . no alcohol is allowed in the City’s nature reserves, with the exception of preapproved events; . visitor numbers per event, film shoot or hall booking will have to comply with Covid-19 lockdown regulations.

Blaauwberg, Table Bay, Durbanville, Bracken, Helderberg, and False Bay nature reserves have picnic and braai areas.

Other areas in the nature reserves, including the hiking trails and open waterbodies, will be accessible as per normal on condition that visitors comply with the Covid-19 health protocols.

Applications to music centre have opened The Hugo Lambrechts Music Centre in Parow is accepting new applica­tions for 2021. Auditions will take place in January. The ventre offers specialised one-onone practical music tuition in all symphonic instruments as well as piano, voice, harp, and guitar.

class settings. Participation in an orchestra and ensembles, relative to a learner’s ability, is an integral component of the Hugo Lambrechts music education and training programme.

Slangseisoen het vanjaar vroeër begin BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind

A

s jy dit nog nie geweet het nie, slangseisoen is amptelik met ons.

Johnny “Snakes” Fisher, bekende slangvanger van die Wes-Kaap, sê dit wil voorkom asof slangseisoen vanjaar vroeër gekom het. “Ek het reeds 53 slange by mense se huise gaan haal. Die meeste hiervan is die giftige Kaapse kobra. Dit is baie meer as in die oorstemmende tyd in die ander jare. Ek weet nie waaraan dit toegeskryf kan word nie, maar dit is kommerwekkend.

Brandpunte is Brackenfell, Durbanville en Kuilsrivier,” sê Fisher.

Volgens Fisher het die teenwoordigheid van slange by woonhuise met baie faktore te make. “Eerstens soek slange kos en water. Hulle gaan na swembaddens of plekke waar daar baie water is. Slakke is byvoorbeeld een van die goed wat hulle eet, so as daar baie slakke in jou tuin is, moet jy weet jy is ’n teiken. Troeteldiere soos hoenders is ook ’n groot aandagtrekker. In baie gevalle word die slange se habitat versteur deur ontbossing vir ontwikkeling en hulle kies dan koers na mense se huise. Ek raai mense aan om hul tuine en agterplase skoon te hou, want dit is waar slange skuil. Maak ook seker jou huis se deur is laag teen die vloer sodat slange nie onderdeur kan seil nie,” sê Fisher.

Hy moes onlangs vinnig spring toe kinders naby ’n slangnes in hul agterplaas gespeel het. “As die ouers nie die slang gesien het nie, was daar moeilikheid. Ek sidder om te dink wat sou gebeur het as daai slang een van die kinders gepik het,” sê hy.

In ’n ander voorval moes hy ’n Mosambiekse spoegkobra by ’n man se huis gaan haal. “Daai tipe slange kom nie in die WesKaap voor nie en ek vra toe bietjie die man

Johnny “Snakes” Fisher met een van die slange wat hy onlangs gevang het. uit. Hy sê hy het onlangs in die Kruger-wildtuin vakansie gehou, so die vermoede is dat die slang van daar ’n rygeleentheid gekry het,” sê hy.

Fisher waarsku dat mense wat slange sien nie moet probeer om dit self te vang nie, maar hom eerder by 072 275 4790 of Charl du Toit by 082 959 5142 moet bel. Mense kan ook SCJ-sekerheidsmaatskappy, vir wie Fisher werk, se beheerkamer by 086 175 2911 bel.

Veral kinders ly honger, sê weldoener BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind

’n

Weldoener van Kuilsrivier sê alles wat hy en sy span vanjaar vermag het sal niks beteken as kinders in die Kerstyd honger is nie.

Phillip van Reenen deel reeds sedert Maart, toe die inperking begin het, kos en kospakkies in verarmde gemeenskappe soos onder meer Wesbank, Delft en Kalkfontein uit. Aanvanklik het hy eers uit sy eie sak kos gemaak, maar toe hy besef hoe groot die nood is, het hy borge begin kry. “Die inperking het regtig my oë oopgemaak vir die lot van die armstes onder die armes. Dit is veral die kinders wat swaarkry. In die hartjie van die winter het hier kinders met kaal voete

opgedaag en dit het ons aangespoor om ook klere in te samel en uit te deel. Ons het reeds duisende mae gevul, maar dit sal nooit genoeg wees nie,” sê Van Reenen.

Hy wou vroeër sy pogings stop, maar het besef dit gaan nie werk nie. “As jy niks het nie kan die feestyd baie lank word. Terwyl die res van die land feesvier is daar honger magies wat gevul moet word. Ons het dus besluit om vir 500 gesinne kospakkies te gee wat darem die ergste las gaan verlig. Vir elke kind wil ons ook klere en ’n klein geskenkie gee net sodat hulle ook kan voel dit is Kersfees,” sê Van Reenen.

Hy het gister die pakkies uitgedeel en hy was vol lof vir die skenkers wat hom deur die loop van die jaar bygestaan het. “Ons hoop dat die mense en organisasies wat ons

Tygerberg Hospital welcomes new CEO A

new chief executive officer (CEO) has been appointed at the Western Cape’s largest hospital recently.

Tygerberg Hospital, which boasts a bed capacity of 1 384 and 4 700 staff members, recently welcomed dr Matodsi Mukosi (51), newly-appoin­ted at the helm of this important institution. Mukosi was previously the CEO of the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital.

Dr Nomafrench Mbombo, Western Cape minister of health, commented that she is thrilled to welcome him as the new CEO. Dr Keith Cloete, head of the health department, also wished Mukosi all the best in his

new role adding that they are confident he will lead the hospital through the next exciting chapter of its journey as an iconic health institution.

Besides delivering specialised services to the people of the province, Tygerberg Hospital is an integral part of the teaching and training platform of health professionals in the province.

“Dr Mukosi has demonstrated many excellent leadership qualities that will enable him to unleash the tremendous inherent potential amongst the staff members to continue growing Tygerberg Hospital as an academic centre of excellence,” says Cloete.

Apart from his extensive management experience, Mukosi’s qualifications include a medical degree from Medunsa, Postgraduate Diploma in Health Management and Master’s degree in Business Management and Administration from Stellenbosch University.

According to Mukosi, his first goal is to build long-lasting relation­ships with staff members.

“I will strive to ensure that every staff member feels valued, cared for and supported at Tygerberg Hospital. It may seem trivial to some, but I am confident that it is imperative and will generate positive outcomes,” he says.

Dr Matodsi Mukosi has been appointed the new chief executive at Tygerberg Hospital.

The building of the University of the Western Cape’s Unibell student residence is well under way.

Student residence on track Construction on the University of the Western Cape’s (UWC) 2 700-bed Unibell student residence is well on track, and the first “pocket” that will house the administration area is expected to be operational in early 2022.

The site is situated in Belhar, within walking distance of UWC’s main campus and the train station. Three pockets of land are currently being developed, and brickwork is already clearly evident on the section that will accommodate the student housing department’s administration area, which needs to be ready to welcome the first intake of students in two years’ time.

Shamil Slamdien, Unibell’s project manager, says work on the R640 million residence is in full swing, with about 20% of the construction completed. “Work started in September this year,” he said, “and despite having to observe strict Cov-

id-19 protocols, in addition to the usual health and safety measures necessary on a construction site, the project has maintained momentum. Earthwork machinery can be seen moving around the precinct and construction work is reaching floor level in two of the pockets.”

Unibell will offer a combination of unitstyle and hotel-style residences, with a communal area for relaxation, shared kitchen spaces and laundry rooms, as well as a gym, TV rooms, Wi-Fi and study facilities. According to the Department of Higher Education South Africa is short of at least 300 000 beds for tertiary students.

This development, which will ensure accessible and convenient accommodation for almost 3 000 UWC students, is much-needed to help address this burgeoning crisis. The development has also created employment for 1 000 people, predominantly from the local community.

Onderwys-ervaring in boek gedeel CARINA ROUX

D

ie wedervaringe van twaalf vroue wat almal unieke stories het, maar ’n passie vir onderrig deel, is saamgevat deur Eleanor Damon in die boek: Onderwys: ’n edele roeping – Teaching a noble calling wat op Donderdag 10 Desember by Suzie’s Coffeeshop in Kuilsrivier bekend gestel is.

Damon, gebore en getoë in Pniël, het meer as 40 jaar onderwyservaring en woon deesdae in Sandbaai. Die vroue wat by die projek betrek is kom uit verskillende agtergronde met die oudste, Miemie Hendricks (95), wat reeds in 1945 begin skoolgee het.

Plaaslik het Hazel Goliath van Highbury, wat onder meer in Kraaifontein, Bishop Lavis en Bonteheuwel skoolgehou het en as kurrikulum-adviseur by die Wes-Kaapse onderwysdepartement afgetree het, haar ondervinding gedeel.

Goliath was in die jare sewentig ’n kollegemaat van Damon en het op ’n plaas in die

Oos-Kaap grootgeword. As kind het sy eers gedink sy sou verpleegster word, maar die non in die kloosterskool het vir haar gesê sy is “ ’n onderwyser deur geboorte”.

Goliath het by die bekendstelling herinneringe, van inkpenne in haar skooldae tot Commodore-rekenaars, as onderwyser opgediep. Ná ’n aanvanklike standerd 8 het sy al begin skoolgee, later haar matriek privaat voltooi, aan Bellville-kollege verder studeer en later jare met ’n beurs by Stanford Universiteit in Amerika haar meestersgraad voltooi.

Sy sê sy hoop hulle kan met die boek, veral ná die moeilike jaar, vir onderwysers inspirasie bring.

Vir Damon is ’n nalatenskap belangrik. Sy sê as sy dink aan hoe swaar dinge soms in haar eie loopbaan was, dan hoop sy dat die boek aan voornemende onderwysers ook leiding en insig kan verskaf. Haar suster, Gameeda Henry, het gehelp om van die onderwysers betrokke te kry om hul ervarings te

deel.

Prof. Michael le Cordeur van die Universiteit Stellenbosch (en oud-onderwyser), sê in ’n onderskrywing van die boek hy het dit baie leersaam gevind. “Dit is vroue vir wie die onderwys nog ’n roeping was,” sê hy, “met verhale van opoffering, maar ook ge-

noegdoening, van pyn en hartseer, maar ook liefde en trots. “Dis die verhaal van hoogsgekwalifiseerde vroue, wat almal ’n skamele begin gehad het, wat hard moes werk om te kom waar hulle is, maar nooit geskroom het om hul hande vuil te maak (letterlik) in belang van die kind nie.”

Mary-Anne en Kobus Oliphant van Kraaifontein was gaste by die bekendstelling by Suzie’s Coffeeshop.

Baxter performances suspended

GATVOL

The Baxter Theatre has taken the decision to suspend all performances over the festive season until end of January next year in light of the rapid rise in Covid-19 cases lately. Final performances will be on Saturday 19 December.

Productions which are impacted and which would have made up the summer programme are Living Coloured, Lottering in Lockdown and From Koe’siestes to Kneidlach - With Kids!

Yusuf Daniels’ Living Coloured, and Marc Lottering’s Lottering in Lockdown will end on Saturday 19 December. Chantal Stanfield’s From Koe’siestes to Kneidlach - With Kids!, which was due to start on 22 December, has been cancelled and is planned to return some time in 2021.

“I would like nothing more than to stand on The Baxter stage and entertain my fans,” says Lottering.

“But right now, it’s more important for all of us to do the right thing and keep each other alive.”

Lara Foot, Baxter CEO and artistic director, says it was not an easy decision to make.

“As it is, we were closed for seven months of 2020, with a massive loss of in-

COVID-19: HOOPVOL VIR WEDSTRYDE VOLGENDE MAAND

Geen verdere krieket nie SAREL BURGER

A Battle on at netball championship Jodee Johannes of Cape Town (right) and Elmere van der Burg of Dr Kenneth Kaunda battle for possession of the ball in their semi-final clash on the fifth day of the National Netball Championships at the Zwartkloof Private Game Reserve, Bela Bela in Limpopo on Friday 11 December. Cape Town suffered a 54-16 loss.

lle vriendskaplike krieketwedstryde en verwante aktiwiteite in die Westelike Provinsie is vir die res van hierdie jaar opgeskort nadat Covid-19-virusgevalle blykbaar by onlangse wedstryde in die suidelike voorstede opgeduik het.

In ’n mediaverklaring wat die WP Krieketunie (WPKU) die afgelope naweek uitgereik het, word beklemtoon dat dit nie ’n besluit was wat ligtelik geneem is nie. Dit was inderdaad eers ná deeglike oorwegings en beraadslaging met verskillende regerings- sowel as provinsiale instansies dat gevoel is geen krieketbyeenkomste van enige aard sal tot minstens 31 Desember toelaatbaar wees nie.

Die WPKU spreek nietemin terselfdertyd sy dank uit dat die meeste klubs die inperkingmaatreëls getrou nagekom het, terwyl die klubs geleidelik besig was met hul voorbereidings vir hierdie somer se krieketpro-

gram. Die WPKU-bestuur bly egter steeds hoopvol dat die wedstrydprogram teen die middel van aanstaande maand onderweg sal kan kom.

Skolekrieket Veertien skole se eerste krieketspanne sal met die heropening van die skole volgende jaar sake uitspook in die Tygerbergstreek se jaarlikse Sammy Bloch/Medicare Aptekeuitklopkompetisie.

Die loting vir die wedstryde in die eerste ronde (tuisspanne eerste) is: HTS Bellville t Fairmont, De Kuilen t D.F. Malan, Edgemead t HS Tygerberg, Fairbairn t HS Bellville, HS Durbanville t Parow, The Settlers t Brackenfell. Twee spanne – Curro Durbanville, die verdedigende kampioen, en Stellenberg – het loslootjies vir die eerste sarsie kragmetings en sluit hulle in die kwarteindronde aan by die wenners van die wedstryde in die eerste ronde.

Annual endurance race delivers nail-biting action Despite the issues caused by Covid-19 restrictions, the Livingstone Baths eight-hour endurance race for lightweight motorcycles at Killarney International Raceway’s Karting Circuit on Saturday 12 December was one of the most successful in the 38-year history of this iconic annual event.

Conditions were perfect, with bright sunshine and a light south-easterly wind, and the circuit itself was clean and stayed that way throughout the event. Despite the usual crashes – dozens of them! – just one rider required hospital treatment (and he was back before the end of the race) and only three short safety-bike periods interrupted eight hours of dynamic racing, filled with epic comebacks, dramatic changes of fortune and heart-warming camaraderie.

International SuperStock star David “McFlash” McFadden put the Honda CBR150 of pre-race favourites Team RST, led

by British rider Jonny Towers and including Kewyn Snyman and short-circuit hots-

hot Jason Linaker, on pole with a 48.780 second qualifying lap.

Van der Walt got the best of the traditional Le Mans start and grabbed the early lead with McFadden all over him like a cheap suit, followed by the Team HSC CBR150 shared by Nicholas Hutchings, Franco Flach, Max Mandix and Abigail Bosson (one of only two ladies in the race) and White on the Team 60 machine.

White, however, set off like a man on a mission. He passed Hutchings for third on the third lap, took second from Mc Fadden on lap eight and was reeling in the leader when he threw it away big time in the Pits Esses on lap 14, changing the entire shape of the race after only 11 minutes. In addition to the usual handlebar and footpeg damage, for which the team were well prepared, the Team 60 CBR150 bent its front suspension in the crash, forcing crew chief Allan Westman to rush home and fetch a spare set of forks from another bike. All in all, White’s mishap

The eight-hour is one of the few events that still features the spectacular but risky Le Mans-style start. Here David McFadden on the No.17 Team RST CBR150 leads the field off the start.

PHOTO: COLIN BROWN cost them almost an hour and a half and they rejoined stone last, 100 laps behind the leaders. Meanwhile, McFadden took over the lead on lap 19 and held it until the crew was forced to pit to replace a flat battery near the

end of the first hour. At that point they were just 1.5 seconds behind IMI after 71 laps.

Team 60, however, were out to prove a point. They were the fastest team on the circuit, having posted a best lap of 48.22 seconds during the fifth hour and made up four laps on the RST machine.

Twenty-two minutes into the second half of the race the Powerflow machine stopped on the circuit, victim of a broken coil wire.

Crew chief Dick Bate had the bike up and running in a matter of minutes but the team had dropped five places, moving HSC up to third. At the end of the fifth hour Powerflow were down in eighth on 316 laps, behind Jack Hammer’s (323 laps), the No. 49 CBR150 of Andre Calvert, Michael Wahl and Derek Davids (324), Team 111 (324), Team No Rush (325), HSC (328), IMI (334) and RST on 341 laps. The honours of the day went to RST as team principal Jonny Towers took the flag after a near-record 551 laps in eight dramatic hours.
