The first phase of a R20 million project is underway at the Milnerton Beach, aiming at improving its infrastructure and safety for beachgoers. The first phase of the project is set to take approximately five to 10 years to complete.
R10 MILLION PROJECT: FIVE TO 10 YEARS TO COMPLETE
Beach to be upgraded KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels
A
R20 million facelift for the decaying Milnerton coastline is currently underway - a decision welcomed by the community. This, as the infrastructure at the Milnerton Beach has deteriorated over the years due to coastal hazards and poor maintenance. The City of Cape Town released a feasibility report, stating that the key goal is to retain and improve the recreational and amenity facilities at the Milnerton Beach. “The original planned intervention at Milnerton Beach was the full retreat of the infrastructure. However, as a result of the required Covid cuts to our capital budget, a new programme has been prepared for Milnerton beach front,” the report reads. “This section of coastline is considered to be one of the most vulnerable stretches of coast in the city, as it relates to exposure to
coastal erosion and storm surge events. It is this exposure to these coastal hazards that presents a significant and real threat to not only City and private infrastructure, but to the recreational and amenity potential that such a node currently offers. Following significant engineering assessments and design, it was planned to undertake a retreat and rebuild of the public infrastructure at the beach front,” the City says in its report. However, in September last year the available budget was cut from R20 million to R10 million due to the impacts of Covid-19. Phase 1 of the project (the short and medium term intervention) will take up to five to 10 years to complete. This phase will see the following changes: . To demolish damaged concrete revetment (the stairs and the lifesavers ramp). This is not functional due to the damage and a risk to public health and safety. Part of the long term solution is to demolish in any event, therefore no wasteful expenditure. . Replacing the damaged concrete revet-
ment with a geo-container revetment. This is to protect the adjacent infrastructure and buildings. The geo-container revetment was considered the preferred option since the bags can be re-used as a sleeping revetment for the long term solution. A gabion wall is less robust to withstand the coastal processes at the site, compared with a geo-container revetment. . Repair the damaged beach access ramp adjacent the club house. The beach access ramp is a critical structure necessary for the provision of safe access for City vehicles to access the beach in the event of an emergency, as well as access for the lifesavers boat and trailer in the event of rescues and other emergencies. Phase 2 of the project (the long-term intervension) will take approximately 10 years to complete. This will include the landwards retreat of the lifesaving building, ablutions and promenade. Phase 2 will also include the implementation of the frontal dune as a soft coastal protection.
The Milnerton Lifesaving Club is located in close proximity to the existing and new revetment structure and deep excavation adjacent to the building could lead to undermining of the foundation. This is due to slope failure and temporary support will most likely be required. Ward 55 councillor, Fabian Ah-Sing, says he is excited that despite all the pressure on the City’s budget, the department went back to the drawing board and came up with a new plan. “Phase one of the project has already started, with the feasibility report finalised. We are now in the design and procurement phase. It does take a bit longer, but we have legislation and procedures that need to be followed to ensure good financial management,” Ah-Sing says. However, with procurement and design, there are things that might change and various factors will influence whether or not the City will need to increase the budget for the project, Ah-Sing explains.

Living with muscle dystrophy TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS @tarryns07 crawling, walking, running and jumping about . . . These are considered “normal” milestones for many children, but not those suffering from muscular dystrophy. In the light of Rare Disease Day, which was first celebrated on 29 February 2008 – a “rare” date – the objective is to raise awareness about this rare disease. Through interaction with Dianne de Graaf of the Muscular Dystrophy Foundation in Goodwood, TygerBurger learned the stories of two little boys, aged one and five respectively. “Muscular dystrophy is a group of diseases that cause progressive weakness and loss of muscle mass. In muscular dystrophy, ‘abnormal’ genes (mutations) interfere with the production of proteins needed to form healthy muscle. There are many kinds of muscular dystrophy. Symptoms of the most common variety begin in childhood. Other types don’t surface until adulthood. These disorders affect children and adults. The disease is usually inherited with the defective gene being passed on from one generation to the next. To date there is no cure available for muscular dystrophy,” explained Dianne, who is the manager for the foundation’s Cape region. Lukas van der Walt from Melkbosstrand and Lian van Eyk from Springs in Gauteng have both been diagnosed with a rare form of muscular dystrophy called LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy. According to Dianne, Laming A/C congenital muscular dystrophy (LMNACMD) is predominantly congenital and on the severe end of the spectrum. “Affected individuals have a weak neck and axial muscles, can develop ‘dropped head’ syndrome and may not achieve sitting. Contracture of the achilles tendons, hips, knees and spine are involved. Scoliosis and spine rigidity can develop. Some affected individuals can achieve walking but will lose that ability later. Respiratory insufficiencies develop requiring intervention. Cardiac conduction abnormalities can occur,” she explained. Lukas van der Walt’s father, Tjaart, chatted to TygerBurger on Monday afternoon when he shared that his wife, Lize, had a smooth pregnancy with no complications. “Lukas was born on 10 June 2019. He was a week overdue. We had planned for normal birth, but Lize was taken in for an emergency c-section. At birth, he had breathing issues and doctors saw that he had hypoplastic lungs which means his lungs weren’t developed properly. Lukas was then taken to the neonatal intensive care unit (Nicu). At two-months-old, more testing was done as he made very little movement. When Lukas was three-monthsold he was diagnosed with LMNA-CMD.” At four months Lukas was given a tracheostomy that involves creating an ope-

Tjaart said he can breathe on his own, but he is kept on the ventilator because his diaphragm is a muscle. Despite the challenges, Tjaart described Lukas as a very strong-willed toddler. “He says a few words like ‘mamma’. While we don’t know his life expectancy, we have peace that his life is one of quality. My wife and I have grown a lot as individuals during this time and we’ve made the choice to give him a quality life.” Lian van Eyk’s mother, Hanti, spoke to the newspaper to share in their family’s journey. “Lian is our ‘laat lammetjie’ as his sister is 18 and brother 12-years-old. He was our surprise baby. My pregnancy was quite normal and I delivered via c-section. He was very tiny, weighing in at 2.2kg. “Everything seemed to be going well until my husband and I noticed that he can’t lift his head. At the age of crawling, no crawling took place. We took him to the paediatrician who then referred us to a neurologist,” said Hanti. She said necessary blood tests were done and Lian was also taken for a muscle biopsy where he tested positive for limbgirdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) type 2B. Fifteen days before his second birthday the family got the final diagnosis which indicated that he suffers from LMNA-CMD.
“Raising Lian opened our eyes to a world we never would have experienced otherwise. It teaches you more about patience, unconditional love, hope and grace. You get a different perspective on what matters in life. You suddenly realise that time is a precious gift and you never know when things might change. You recognise the significance of small things in life. You live in the moment. You find joy in that ‘wheelchair chase’ around the house or in the excitement of reaching another milestone – not to mention the witty comments only special needs parents would understand,” said Hanti. Lian is unable to eat on his own so he’s fed through a mic-key feeding tube, Hanti said. “Small things that come with no effort for us are a huge challenge to him, like simply lifting his arms. However, none of these challenges can dampen the brave and joyful spirit of this young boy. No matter what challenges Lian faces he always has a smile on his face. He is a little “chatterbox” who amuses everyone with his humour and cute personality. “He absolutely loves driving around in his power wheelchair, chasing his brother and sister around the house. He gets excited about everything and is always ready for whatever life throws at him.” For more information about muscular dystrophy visit the Muscular Dystrophy Foundation of South Africa website at www.mdsa.org.za.

Eight arrested for drugs The Table View police arrested eight suspects who were in possession of illegal substances last week. Table View police spokesperson, Capt Adriana Chandler, said some of the arrests were affected during foot patrols in hot spot areas, others were due to tip offs by the community and some during routine patrols. “Seven men and one woman between the ages of 24 and 37 years appeared in the Cape Town Magistrates’ Court. Two of the eight
suspects are facing charges of dealing in illegal substances. Cannabis (dagga), crystal methamphetamine (tik), cocaine and Mandrax were confiscated, as well as large sums of cash,” Chandler said. Station commander Col Lindiwe Dyantyi expressed appreciation towards the community who have provided police with information, as well as to all other external role players who contributed towards these successes.

Guides honour founders on Thinking Day RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj
E
ach year on Thinking Day, Guides across the world pay tribute to the founders of the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides organisations, Lord Robert BadenPowell and his wife Lady Olave. Thinking Day is also the joint birthday of the founders. In honour of the day this year, De Grendel Girl Guides held a special event, says Tanya Prinsloo, district commissioner for the De Grendel District and also communications and marketing chair for the Cape (West). The De Grendel district includes the Bothasig, Table View, Monte Vista and Edgemead areas. Prinsloo says on Sunday 21 February the girl guides celebrated the day with a “Peacekeeper Puzzle in the Park”. Teddies, Brownies, guides, rangers, adult leaders, Trefoil

guilders and parents all came together for a scavenger hunt in the park solving five different puzzles, says Prinsloo. The puzzles and theme of the hunt was based around how the girl guides helped win the war, World War II, that is, says Prinsloo. “Because of Covid-19, and not being able to do a big regional event as in past years, districts did the same scavenger hunt, but in their own districts. Our girls came out to Camoens Park in Monte Vista in their branch groups to minimise the numbers and to maintain social distancing.” Prinsloo says the day was a huge success. “Girls were quickly briefed on where to find the clues and off they went to solve the puzzles with their parents. Once they had deciphered all five clues they had their answers checked and received their camp blanket badge. They then had to find a ranger to record them renewing their promise, as is done every year on Thinking Day.” Prinsloo says usually girls meet once a week and follow a vibrant and challenging programme covering a wide variety of subjects referred to as adventures. These are first-aid and safety, outdoors and water, ecogreen and leadership among others. “We have a very diverse and thought-provoking programme specifically designed for girls to help them become independent and considering young women. “Girls do crafts, build gadgets, learn about their environment, do community service projects and go camping and canoeing and become leaders,” she says. Girl Guides is a movement that is found worldwide – in over 150 countries. The organisation was founded in 1910, because girls demanded to take part in the then grassroots Boy Scout movement, says Prinsloo who also runs the Bothasig crew. There are over 10 million members today worldwide. In South Africa alone there are over 18 000 members in about 500 units across the country.
Siena Jearney (7), a former Edgemead Teddy, has promoted to a Brownie.
Courtney Schelhase (15), a Bothasig Ranger, holds the flag high.
Tyler Petersen, Trinity Lopes and Rebecca Larkan also took part solving puzzles on Thinking Day. All three are members of the Bothasig Guide Company.

Safety tips as crime spikes KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels
A
s reported cases of house break-ins in the Table View precinct have seen an increase in recent weeks, residents are urged to take the necessary safety precautions. Table View police spokesperson Capt Adriana Chandler says a high fence around the house with lockable gates is much safer than a high wall due to the advantage of the improved visibility it provides. “The primary aim of the fence is to make access/intrusion difficult and to allow dogs to move freely around the house. Ensure that your gates are locked at all times and that the keys cannot be reached easily or are not lying around uncontrolled. Security gates with sturdy locks in front of each outer door as well as burglar proofing covering all windows are recommended,” Chandler says. The following devices prevent easy access: . window bars; . security doors; . security gates; . razor wire; . additional locking devices on doors; . strengthening of doors; . peepholes in the doors; . safety chains to doors and . an intercom system between the home and gate, front door or garage. Chandler is urging the community to ensure that doors are locked at all times and that windows are closed when you are not at home. “Large dogs serve as a deterrent. At least one dog should be trained to sleep inside the
M
FOA
house. If you leave your residence, inform your family or neighbours of your intended destination, time you expect to return and the route you will be driving, especially if you reside in a rural area. Ensure that tools such as axes, spades, picks and ladders that can be used in an attack, are locked away when you do not use them,” she says. Chandler has pointed out the following safety tips: . Vary your daily routine. Get into the habit of not immediately falling asleep after switching off the lights. . Remain awake for a while. You should not be visible in the bedroom from the outside when you are asleep. . If you are unsure about the security status of your home after returning from work or a visit,or your dogs do not come to the gate, do not enter your home. Contact your neighbour to assist you in securing your home. . Report suspicious behaviour and information to the South African Police Service. . Clear the areas around the gates of bushes and other hiding places. Do not allow strangers onto your premises or in your house without having properly identified the person, especially at night. . Identify keys by means of codes instead of indicating in writing on labels to which gate/door access can be gained. . Keys to the safe must be kept on the person. Never hide any keys in traditional places, such as in pot plants or under doormats. . Keys in the keyhole on the inside of the front or back door should be turned to avoid easy removal. Never allow strangers to handle keys or look at key numbers.

Changes to MyCiTi operating hours T
he City of Cape Town urges commuters to take note that some of the MyCiTi routes will no longer operate into the late evening. The changes were implemented on Monday 1 March. The busiest and most popular routes such as those serving Atlantis, Table View, Melkbos and Dunoon are not affected, and will keep operating late into the evening. The City’s Mayco member for transport, Felicity Purchase, says the Covid-19 pandemic is having a severe impact on commuters and the demand for the MyCiTi service. “We find that most people now prefer travelling home earlier than was the case before the pandemic hit us in March last year. The City has to reprioritise spending in response
to the pandemic, and as a responsible government, we are cutting costs wherever we can. “Transport officials conducted an analysis of commuters’ travel patterns over the past few months and this confirmed that few people are now travelling after 20:00 on most of our MyCiTi routes. We have, therefore, decided to temporarily curtail late-night trips on some of the MyCiTi routes as from 1 March 2021,” Purchase says. This is in an effort to cut operational costs and operating times will be adjusted once the City has recovered from the pandemic and passenger demand is up again. The following routes will continue to operate late into the evening as the demand for the service is still high at night:
School applications open The provincial Education Department is appealing to all parents and caregivers, particularly those who have learners that will be entering either Grade R, 1 or 8 next year, to please apply before 26 March. Applications can be made either online or through a paper-based application process should a parent not have access to technology. According to a statement, the department has already recorded 52 884 applications on the system by 16 606 parents since Friday 26 February. Parents are required to apply at three schools, including the ones closest to your home, and order of their preference. The following support documents are needed: . the last official school report card;

The majority of the other MyCiTi routes will stop operating between 19:00 and 21:00 on weekdays, and some – like those serving Hout Bay – will terminate at around 21:35. Commuters are advised to visit the MyCiTi website on www.myciti.org.za; or to use the MyCiTi app for the latest time schedules. Passengers can also phone the Transport Information Centre on 0800 656 463 for updates. The City says some of the timetables at the
bus stops are outdated, given that the Alert Levels related to Covid-19 are continuously amended by the national government with either stricter curfew times, or the easing thereof. “I know thousands of commuters rely on the MyCiTi service to travel to work and school. We regret these changes and the inconvenience. Passengers must please verify the time of their last bus home as we do not want anybody to be left stranded. Covid-19 is challenging us on all levels. “We have to be resilient and adapt to the situation, and keep on doing what we need to do to curb the spread of the virus by wearing our masks when in public, washing or sanitising our hands often, and to practise social distancing,” Purchase says.
Competition held for fallen hero The Milnerton Lifesaving club, together with the Big Bay Surf Lifesaving Club, held a Fun Flags and Rescue competition in honour of the late Farouk May, a technical official, who passed away recently. The clubs said the competition
was enjoyed by all with great support by all whose lives were touched by the legend. “Rest in peace, we will miss you,” they said. The clubs have started with lifeguard training as well for the next summer season.

Rallim students supporting Choc by celebrating Flip-Flop Day.
Flip-Flop Day for childhood cancer T
he sound of flip-flops could be heard echoing throughout Rallim Preparatory School recently as they celebrated Flip-Flop Day in honour of Choc (Childhood Cancer Foundation South Africa). Choc is a foundation providing care and support to children with cancer and Rallim has already collected more than R17 000 and more seems to be coming in. “This will make a world of difference in the lives of so many children. The kindness and generosity of our Rallim families con-
tinued with the endless number of care packages received in appreciation, love and support for our essential workers at Red Cross Children’s Hospital together with the beautiful and heartfelt thank you cards. Thank you so much for all your generous donations. The students also wrote special letters to make the children in the hospital wards feel loved. A very special thank you to all the students, parents and edu-mentors for spreading the kindness,” the school says.

Snert vs feite: Dink logies daaroor Soms gebeur dinge wat ’n mens maar kan sê by bisar verby is. En as jy dit nie met jou eie oë gesien het nie, sou jy dit dalk nie geglo het nie. So is die volgende storie my eenkeer vir die waarheid vertel. ’n Omie lê luilekker in die son op ’n Kaapse strand, half aan die slaap. Seevoëls krys om hom heen en die branders raas. Toe kom ’n seuntjie met sy draairoomys verby, maar hy struikel en die roomys val van die horinkie af, net mooi op die oom se bors. Hy skrik wakker van die ysigkoue ding op sy bors en al wat hy half verdwaas kan uitkry, is “magtag, kom hierdie seevoëls van die Suidpool af?” Net verlede week sien ek in die media die berig oor die man van wie se tong ’n vrou ’n stuk afgebyt en uitgespoeg het. Die volgende oomblik kom ’n reusemeeu, pik dit op en weg is hy. Die twee mense het glo gestry en toe handgemeen geraak. Dit kom toe so dat die vrou eers die man stamp en hom toe probeer soen om terug te veg. En net daar gee sy sy tong ’n yslike hap van so 3 cm. Die man is hospitaal toe, maar dokters kon nie veel vir hom doen nie, want daar was niks om aan te heg nie. En die vrou is hegtenis geneem en het in die hof skuld beken. Die vonnis is nog nie bekend nie. Nóg vreemder as fiksie was toe ’n jong man nou die dag beweer het Helen Zille, voorsitter van die DA se Federale Raad, het ’n mikroskyfie in sy kop geplant. Sy is op sosiale media omtrent hieroor gekasty en moes bontstaan om te verduidelik dis nie waar nie. Die man het selfs ’n gevolg op Facebook opgebou van mense wat glo sy bewering is waar. Zille het ruiterlik erken sy weet nie so mooi hoe om die situasie te hanteer nie. En sy ken die man nie eens nie. Maar, sy sou hom wel vir mediese hulp verwys as sy kon. As ek Zille was, sou ek waarskynlik nie in die openbaar op so ’n waansinnige bewering reageer nie, bloot omdat dit my sou kon blootstel aan nog mense wat nie al hul varkies op hok het nie. Dis jammer, maar dis die werklikheid – daar is mense wat nie tussen fantasie en werklikheid kan onderskei nie. Dis ’n vreesaanjaende siekte van die brein en sulke mense beweeg tussen ons rond. Kom ons wees nou net vir ’n oomblik realisties en neem die wette van die wetenskap in ag. Sou dit fisiologies en fisiek moontlik wees vir iemand om enigiets in my of jou kop te plant sonder ’n operasie onder narkose? En sonder dat ons weet die operasie word uitgevoer? Reg geraai. Dis snert. En daarom sou ek ook nie daarop reageer as iemand so ’n bewering sou maak nie. Maar as iemand hom wil verbeel hy is Alice in Wonderland, laat hulle maar begaan. Los net MY kop en MY tong uit, dankie. Ek het hulle nog nodig. – Werner van Tonder

Probleem word nie ordentlik opgelos nie In antwoord op die brief “Komiteelid gee antwoord” (TygerBurger, 24 Februarie). Dit is nie dat ’n mens nie begrip het vir die Stad Kaapstad se uitdagings betreffende hawelose mense en die pandemie wat dit vererger het nie, maar haweloosheid was reeds daar lank voor die pandemie. Die N1 begin nou al ook soos ’n plakkerskamp lyk met al die strukture aan weerskante van die pad asook op van die middelmannetjies. Op sekere plekke begin dit soos ’n dump site lyk soos wat die rommel by oornagplekke agtergelaat word en die wind dit die hele wêreld vol waai. Een van die redes waarom daar geen vordering is nie, is omdat die Stad ’n beleid volg om “probleme op ’n klagtebasis aan te pak”. As jy drie konyne in ’n park los, het jy binnekort 100 en het jy ’n probleem om hulle dan te verwyder. Oor die jare is daar al honderde en dalk duisende operasies uitgevoer waarin haweloses “verwyder” is, strukture afgebreek en rommel weggery is. Die vraag is, wat was die doel van die operasie? Was dit om die “klaer” tydelik tevrede te stel of was dit om die probleem op te los? Met geen opvolgoperasie nie was dit eintlik ’n “vrugtelose oefening”, want sodra die wetstoepassers onttrek keer die haweloses terug. Wanneer die volgende klagte miskien oor ses maande ontvang word, dan word die hele oefening net weer herhaal. In dieselfde TygerBurger is berig oor ’n hawelose, sy vrou en sy ma wat al nege
jaar langs die heining van die munisipale kantore in Kraaifontein woon. Sou u reken dit is normaal, aanvaarbaar en in belang van alle mense? Ná nege jaar sal dit definitief ’n uitdaging wees om hulle te verwyder! LEON BRYNARD Brackenfell
Kos uitsit maak die probleem erger Na aanleiding van die skrywe “Vullisdae lok misdadigers”. Die punt is, die mense hoort nie hier in ons buurte nie. Baie mense sit kos uit, waarom? Só lok jy nog meer in die buurte in. Daar is al geskryf deur mense dat die wat soos ek dink nie ’n hart het nie. Ja, ek kry die mense jammer, maar daar het julle nou weer ’n les geleer – misdadigers gebruik dit as ’n dekmantel. As dit moontlik is, en ek is by die huis, wys ek hulle weg. Ek is nie bereid om ’n kans te waag nie – een van die dae bly hulle in parkies of op ’n erf langs jou huis. Hou op kos uitsit, julle wat dit doen, veroorsaak probleme vir ander! JOHAN GREEFF E-pos
Sies man! Die muur is nie ’n toilet nie! Dit was onooglik en het my met afsku vervul! Verlede Vrydag moes ek ’n posstuk by die Parow-poskantoor gaan afhaal. My motor was in die dwarsstraat daaragter parkeer. Ek was gou geholpe en met die uitstap, sien ek drie mans wat net om die hoek van Voortrekkerweg teen die muur staan en urineer – so helder oordag en sonder om skaam te wees! Dis darem
baie swak en onaanvaarbaar vir enige dorp. Dis ’n plek waar baie vroue en kinders beweeg. Dit is uiters swak advertensie vir enige dorp en ook onhigiënies. Ek weet daar is wel openbare toiletgeriewe in die omgewing van Shoprite in Parow, maar dit is beslis nie voldoende vir almal nie. Ook is dit te ver van die middedorp. Ek dink werklik dis ’n saak wat ernstig aangepak moet word. Ek sal dit baie opreg waardeer indien daar iets aan gedoen kan word. Dit is in die belang van die publiek en kan nie net onder die mat gevee word nie. MEV. JOSSIE JOOSTE Parow-Noord
Red die natuur, los plastiek Plastieksakke is so gerieflik, dat ons as Suid-Afrikaners jaarliks ongeveer 8 miljard daarvan gebruik. Soos van julle weet, is plastiek ’n sintetiese stof wat beteken dit is nie natuurlik nie. Dit neem dus 15 tot 100 jaar om af te breek! Sommige plastiek is lig-afbreekbaar en besoedel die grond en waterweë. Die gevolg is definitief nie net ’n vasteafvalprobleem nie; seediere verstik aan die plastiek of word daarin vasgevang. Dink bietjie daaroor; net 1,2% van alle plastiek wat jy (ja, jy) weggooi, word herwin! En die res? Die meeste beland op ’n stortingsterrein. Die afgelope 20 jaar gee ons nie meer om wat ons aan die aarde doen nie. Ons kan mos net ons rommel by die venster uitgooi. Nee! Ons kan nie. Dink bietjie daaroor, as jy wil hê jou kind moet weet hoe lyk ’n seeskilpad, dan moet jy ’n verskil begin maak. Volg die volgende wenke:
. Neem jou eie sakke winkel toe. . Begin minder plastiek gebruik. . Dink weer voor jy ja sê vir ’n plastieksak. ERIK GROBLER E-pos
Kom ons hernoem ook die Kaap Miskien moet ons nie naamsveranderings sonder meer verwerp nie. Dat die bruinmense ook die erkenning kry wat hulle toekom, moet verwelkom word. Dawid Stuurman vir die lughawe in Port Elizabeth en Franklin Sonn in Athlone is in die kol. Sekere ander name laat egter die tong knoop. Of die land die naamsveranderinge kan bekostig, is egter ’n ander saak. Wie betaal daarvoor? Deesdae tel geldmors deur die owerheid mos nie meer nie. Dalk moet gemeenskappe begin om die gebruik om naamsveranderings in onuitspreeklike name te verander, voorspring en weer die inheemse name begin teruggee. So kan Durbanville dalk sy aanvanklike naam van Pampoenkraal terugkry. Dit is onafhanklik en het geen rasse of koloniale konnotasie nie. Selfs die oorspronklike bewoners van die gebied, die Khoi, het nie ’n naam vir Durbanville gehad nie. Niemand word dus te na gekom nie. Begin sommer kyk na ander name hier in die Wes-Kaap. Wat sal ’n mens byvoorbeeld Bellville, Parow, Malmesbury, Milnerton, Moorreesburg, Hopefield, Darling en Ashton noem? Inwoners kan interessante voorstelle maak. ADAMUS P. STEMMET Durbanville

Bertish Bertish to to take take on on the the Pacific
Capetonian Chris Bertish plans to embark on the Transpacific Wing Project, the world’s first solo, wing foil, transpacific crossing in June. The two-month long record-setting Transpacific Wing Project follows Bertish’s world first, solo, unsupported, Trans-Atlantic stand-up paddleboard crossing that garnered global attention and raised money for multiple global charities in 2017. For this next adventure, Bertish will solo wing foil 4 586km across the Pacific Ocean from Half Moon Bay in California to Oahu in Hawaii. The journey will require Bertish to complete the equivalent of more than two full marathons per day, winging a minimum of eight to 12 hours per day, for over fifty days, unsupported and completely unassisted. The Transpacific Wing Project craft was custom-built for Bertish’s 2017 solo, stand up paddle journey across the Atlantic Ocean.. PHOTO: BOB STAWICKI
SKOLEKRIEKET: GEEN WEDSTRYDE RES VAN SOMER
Beamptes nie gelukkig SAREL BURGER
S
kolekrieket-beamptes in die Tygerbergstreek kan slange vang. Dít nadat die plaaslike skolekrieketspanne, saam met dié in die Boland, slaggereed was om die afgelope naweek wedstryde te speel. In ’n uiters debatteerbare besluit van Krieket Suid-Afrika (KSA) einde verlede week is die skole die harnas in gejaag deur ’n besluit dat geen wedstryde die res van hierdie somer mag plaasvind nie. Nadat die WP se krieketunie reeds vroeër in Februarie aangekondig het dat alle vorme van krieketwedstryde weens die viruspan-
demie vir die huidige seisoen afgelas is, is die Bolandse skole intussen mondeling deur KSA meegedeel dat wedstryde die afgelope naweek moontlik in daardie streek hervat sou kon word. Gevolglik het verskeie Tygerbergse skole hul toevlug tot hul Bolandse eweknieë geneem om van die afgelope naweek wedstryde in die Wynland en omstreke te laat plaasvind. Maar toe kom die gewraakte aankondiging kort voor die afgelope naweek. In die lig van Sondagaand se aankondiging deur die regering dat die hele land se Covid-19-inperking van vlak 3 na vlak 1 sou skuif, het dit werklik sin gemaak dat die erg
gefrustreerde jongelinge die geleentheid gegun moes word om, te midde van voorgeskrewe virus-protokolle, terug te keer na mededingende sport. Maar KSA se regsomkeer en (voortydige) besluit aan die einde van verlede week dat geen wedstryde tot en met 31 Maart mag plaasvind nie, het ’n stokkie voor verwikkelinge van enige aard gesteek. Wat hierdie aankondiging soveel te meer dispuutbaar maak, is dat skole in die omsendskrywe feitlik aangemoedig word om voort te gaan met huishoudelike oefeninge en selfs oefenwedstryde tussen spanne van dieselfde skool – maar wedstryde teen enige ander skool sou taboe wees!
Nou kan die jongelinge – en ook senior somersport-klublede – maar net hoop dat toestande later vanjaar met die aanbreek van die volgende somer sodanig sal wees dat normale sportaktiwiteite dan wel moontlik is. Die WP Noordelike Stadsgebiede-krieketstreekunie het in der waarheid reeds ’n besluit geneem dat verreweg die meeste skolekompetisies, wat hierdie kwartaal afgelas moes word, nou na die vierde kwartaal gaan verskuif. Daarmee sal matrikulante, wat al byna ’n jaar lank alle mededingende sport ontsê word, darem die geleentheid gegun word om “vir oulaas”, voordat hulle die skoolbanke verlaat, wedstryde vir hul skool te kan speel.
Virtual coaching roll-out for schools rugby SA Rugby announced on Monday 1 March that coaches, parents and players from schools across the country will be invited to a series of webinars as preparations step up a gear for a return to action later in the year. An announcement was made recently on the return to non-contact training for all amateur rugby, including schools, clubs and associations and within specific safety conditions required by the current Covid19 pandemic. This comes in light of the recent easing of adjusted lockdown regulations. To further assist and educate players from the various u.18 age groups, SA Rugby’s rugby department will share their expertise online and in real time with players, coaches and parents at school level.
The programme – which will run from Thursday 4 March until Thursday 1 April 2021 – was compiled by Hilton Adonis (manager: training and education, Louis Koen manager: high performance programmes), as well as Herman Masimla and Nico Serfontein, who spearhead the elite player development (EPD) programmes. “Our online coaching webinar series last year was a massive success and we decided to do something similar, specifically to assist players at school with the best way to get back into action again after a very long time away from the game,” said SA Rugby’s director of rugby Rassie Erasmus. “Hilton, Louis, Herman and Nico have put in a lot of effort and done great work in this regard, and the series of webinars will be of great value for any player, coach
or parent from u.15 level upwards,” says Erasmus. “While the focus will be on the better players, who have been identified as part of our EPD programmes, any players who are keen to lace up their boots again will find benefit from the information we’re planning to share.” Four webinars are planned, as well as a final interactive session where parents, players and coaches will have the opportunity to interact with staff from the rugby department. The first of the four session, which will be conducted by Springbok head coach Jacques Nienaber and his junior Springbok counterpart Bafana Nhleko, will discuss the national coaching blueprint on Wednesday 4 March. This will be followed by a session on
strength and conditioning on Thursday 11 March, hosted by SA Rugby’s head strength and conditioning coach, Tim Qumbu. SA Rugby nutritionists Zeenat Simjee and Robyn Moore will talk about diet and the use of supplements on Thursday 18 March, and the last session, on training management during Covid-19, will be hosted by Springbok women’s head coach Stanley Raubenheimer on Thursday 25 March. The series will conclude with a live feedback and information session on Thursday 1 April. Schools will be informed via their provinces on the details of the webinars, and those looking for more information are urged to get in touch with their provincial unions.
