Depressie is ‘n wrede werklikheid Deur Andries van Zyl

Vir ‘n tweede keer dié maand moes inwoners van Louis Trichardt die skoknuus ontvang van ‘n selfmoord, nadat die 26-jarige Iyon de Necker Saterdagaand sy eie lewe geneem het. Iyon se vriende sal hom almal onthou as ‘n opgewekte, glimlaggende en joviale jong man – die lewe van die partytjie, alhoewel hyself geensins gedrink het nie. Maar agter die glimlag het Iyon ‘n geweldige stryd teen depressie gevoer, ‘n siekte waarvoor hy ook behandeling ontvang het. “Ek is nie skaam om te sê my kind het selfmoord gepleeg nie, en ek is nie skaam om te sê my kind was ‘n depressieleier nie,” het pa Anton Woensdag aan die Zoutpansberger gesê. Vir hom en ma Melanie was dit belangriker om die hoop uit te spreek dat inwoners sal ag slaan op die werklike probleem van depressie en selfmoord in die gemeenskap. “Ons jongmense vandag is onder geweldig druk om te presteer in ‘n gejaagde lewe. Het hulle altyd iemand aan hul sy wat hulle kan bystaan?” het Anton gesê. Hy het spesifiek verwys na mense wat nie meer ‘n aanvoeling het vir ander se nood nie. “Hoeveel van ons kan vandag ons vinger opsteek en sê ek ken my buurman en ek ken sy omstandighede?” het Anton gevra. Anton en Melanie het dit duidelik gestel dat hulle niemand kwalik neem vir hul seun se besluit nie. In meeste gevalle van depressie is daar gewoonlik ‘n lang aanloop van omstandighede wat lei tot die besluit om selfmoord te pleeg. “As ouer kom jy gou agter as daar fout is, en dit is jou plig as ouer om vir jou kind te laat verstaan dat sy lewe betekenis het. In Iyon se geval het hy ‘n diepgewortelde probleem van depressie gehad,” het Anton gesê. Tog het Anton-hulle vrede gemaak met hul seun se besluit. “Jy moet aanvaar Iyon was 26 jaar oud. Jy moet aanvaar jy het jou beste gedoen om hom groot te maak en op die pad van die lewe te sit. Jy

het reeds verifikasie gekry van die hoeveelheid mense wat hy aangeraak het en die hoeveelheid positiwiteit wat hy uitgestraal het buitekant toe. Dit moet vir jou sê jy het ‘n goeie kind grootgemaak,” het Anton gesê. Volgens Anton en Melanie hoop hulle dat hul seun se dood inwoners sal aanspoor om hulle verskille opsy te skuif en om oor alle kleur-, geloofsen geslagsgrense heen om ‘n tafel te gaan sit en die probleem aan te spreek. Hiervoor, het Anton gesê, is hy bereid om as klankbord op te tree. “Mense het nie nodig om agter maskers te lewe nie,” het Melanie gesê. “Depressie kom oor ‘n tyd. Dit word nie aangespreek en dan gekeer nie. Dit word nie ingeënt en dit is verby nie. Dit is ‘n probleem wat deurlopend aangespreek moet word,” het Anton bygevoeg. Wat laasgenoemde betref, het Anton gesê mense het almal ‘n verpligting teenoor mekaar. “Dit hoef nie ‘n professionele persoon te wees nie. Enige persoon, en dit mag ‘n ander ouer wees, met ‘n fyn aanvoeling vir ander se nood - dit is die persoon wat moet opstaan en help,” het Anton gesê. Iyon is ‘n oud-leerling van Laerskool Louis Trichardt en het sy hoërskoolloopbaan by Hoërskool John Vorster voltooi. Ná skool het hy homself bekwaam as klankingenieur en in 2017 het hy na Louis Trichardt teruggekeer. ‘n Diens om sy lewe te vier vind Vrydag, 30 Augustus, om 11:00 vanuit die Volle Evangelie Kerk in Louis Trichardt plaas. Hy word oorleef deur sy ouers en broer Bourdeaux, asook skoonsuster Mandy en baba Lincoln. Die familie het gesê hulle is oorweldig deur die boodskappe, oproepe en gebede van al Iyon se vriende, sommige wat hulle nie eers geken het nie. “Mense moenie vir my sê dit is die Here se wil dat Iyon selfmoord gepleeg het nie. As sy dood en die aksies wat daarop gevolg het dalk iemand anders se lewe kan red - dit is die wil van die Here,” het Anton gesê.

Officials from the Makhado Municipality visited the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality (Port Elizabeth) for a fact-finding and knowledge-sharing engagement on 21 and 22 of August. Makhado municipal spokesman Mr Louis Bobodi (front right) said they had gained a lot of insight and knowledge on how to integrate public participation and communication activities effectively and efficiently regarding, among others, the integrated development plan (IDP). He further indicated that their counterparts from Port Elizabeth will reciprocate and attend one of the main service-delivery-related activities in Makhado next year. Photo supplied.

Eben verloor stryd teen kanker na kort siekbed In Memoriam

Inwoners van Louis Trichardt het met groot hartseer verneem van die skielik dood van mnr. Eben van den Heever op 20

Augustus, slegs twee dae na sy 49ste verjaarsdag. Wyle Eben is op 15 Julie met kolonkanker gediagnoseer. Dit het egter na sy lewer en niere versprei en daar was niks wat medici

Wyle mnr. Eben van den Heever (49). Foto verskaf.

meer vir hom kon doen nie. Hy is in die Steve Biko Hospitaal in Pretoria oorlede. “Sy diagnose en skielik dood bietjie meer as ‘n maand later het vir ons almal as groot skok gekom,” het Eben se vrou Elsie gesê. Eben-hulle is sedert 1991 inwoners van Louis Trichardt. Hy is gebore in Sasolburg, waar hy ook skoolgegaan het, maar hy het sy hoërskoolloopbaan aan Hoër Landbouskool Kuschke buite Polokwane voltooi. Wyle Eben se begrafnisdiens het Woensdag, 28 Augustus, vanuit die Lede in Christus Kerk in Louis Trichardt plaasgevind. Hy word oorleef deur sy vrou Elsie, seun KC, dogter Almarie, skoonouers Lettie en Kallie Oosthuizen en skoonsuster Marietjie. “Baie dankie vir almal wat ons bygestaan het met gebede en onderskraging. Dankie ook van al die SMS’e en oproepe,” het die familie gesê.

Hierdie bakkie het Dinsdagmiddag ‘n wil van sy eie gehad. Nadat die bestuurder dit parkeer het by Build It, op die hoek van Kruger- en Joubertstraat in Louis Trichardt, het die bakkie, met niemand agter die stuur nie, aan die loop geraak. Dit het buite beheer in Joubertstraat afgehardloop en by die kruising met Presidentstraat ‘n kragpaal getref en omgeslaan. Eers ‘n hele paar minute later het die bestuurder van die bakkie op die toneel aangehardloop gekom. Die bakkie is weer op sy wiele gelig en aan die gang gekry. Gelukkig is niemand in die ongeluk beseer nie. Regs: As daar gekyk word na die toestand van die bakkie se onderstel, met die enjin wat blykbaar met houtplankies daaraan vasgemaak is, kan mens maar net jou kop skud oor hoe die verkeersafdeling voort kan gaan om sulke motors op die pad toe te laat.

I am ... the Way, the Truth and the Life Matthew 22:11-12

t was a wedding and the guests had to dress accordingly. This man refused to put on the wedding garment. He was proud and would not wear the gift of grace, he was self-willed and had to show his independence of mind. This man would have his own way in defiance of the Lord of the feast. One of the requirements of the feast is that you believe in the lord Jesus with your heart and take his righteousness to be your righteousness. If you will not accept the Lord Jesus as your substitute, bearing your sins in his own body on the cross, you do not have the proper wedding garment. Another requirement is that you should repent of sin and forsake it and that you should seek holiness and endeavour to copy the example of our Lord Jesus. You are to possess, as the work of divine grace, a godly and upright character. Do you have such a character? Even though you are not perfect, yet inasmuch as you follow after righteousness, you have the wedding garment. You say you are a Christian, but do you live like a Christian? Are you in a position and condition that agree with the gospel feast? If so, you have put on the wedding garment. Those who came to the feast were both bad and good, so the wedding garment relates not to their past character but to something with which they were invested when they came to the banquet. It involved reverence for the King, homage to the Prince and sympathy with the whole matter. Look well and see whether you truly yield yourselves to the Lord. “The Spirit wrought my faith and love, and hope, and every grace. But Jesus spent his life to work the robe of righteousness.” (Hymn by Isaac Watts). - Rev Johan Marais (Baptist Church)

Ons Tuiste Ouetehuis is nou reeds besig om items bymekaar te maak vir hul basaar van volgende jaar. As deel van die projek het lede van Lugmagbasis (LMB) Makhado se Hobby & Craft Centre Dinsdag die eerste van talle gehekelde kombersies aan die tehuis kom oorhandig. Een van hulle was Cathrine Coetzee. Sy het sowat vyf jaar gelede drie vingers aan elke hand en nege tone verloor na vermoedelik ‘n insekbyt. Dit het haar egter nie van stryk gebring nie en sy het sedertdien begin hekel (wat haar drie weke gevat het om te leer) en ook begin skilder. “Sy is vir ons almal ‘n voorbeeld en inspirasie,” het die tehuis se Sonia Scheepers gesê. Cathrine-hulle tree eersdaags af en verhuis na die Kaap en dit was vir haar belangrik om haar kombers betyds klaar te kry. Nog ‘n lid van die basis se klub, Joyce Jansen, tree ook af die einde van die jaar en verhuis na Hoedspruit. Afgeneem tydens die oorhandiging is (van links na regs) Kittie de Bruin (bestuurder van Ons Tuiste), Leana Harmse (LMB), past. Rita Gathercole (LMB), Sonia, Joyce, Catherine en Cecile Fryer. Persone wat ‘n bydrae wil lewer ten opsigte van die tehuis se basaar se handwerktafel kan vir Sonia skakel by tel. 083 258 7513.

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede in die

Zoutpansberger Die laaste week van Augustus sorg klaarblyklik vir baie drama en 1994 was geen uitsondering nie. ‘n Taxi, bestuur deur ‘n vrou sonder ‘n lisensie, jaag in ‘n petrolpomp vas by Zoutpansberg Motors. Die spulletjie slaan aan die brand en een van die passasiers spring in dieselfde taxi en jaag polisiestasie toe om dit aan te meld. Daar gekom, loop die taxi agteruit en veroorsaak ‘n botsing met ‘n ander lid van die publiek wat ook die brand wou aanmeld. Gelukkig is die brand vinnig geblus en die omstanders kon die skade begin bepaal. Dieselfde week is ‘n vlieënier genoodsaak om ‘n noodlanding in die veld sowat 30km vanaf Musina te doen. Die vlieënier van die Kaap kon gelukkig uitklim sonder enige beserings. ‘n Kwarteeu gelede het die probleem van onwettige grondbesettings reeds sy kop begin uitsteek. ‘n Plakkersopstal het feitlik oornag verrys in Kleinstraat, Louis Trichardt. Die stadsraad moes ingryp en die strukture haastig verwyder. Die “plakkerskamp” het toe reeds bestaan uit ‘n aantal tente, ‘n sinkgebou, sinkstrukture en ‘n afgeleefde karavaan.

Moontlik die interessantste deel van die koerant was die brieweblad. Jan de Bruyn, bekende digter van die dorp, het die stadsraad aangevat oor die “stink water”. Die stadsklerk, mnr. Hein Basson, het dadelik teruggekap met die gewone retoriek, wat ingesluit het ‘n vraag oor hoekom De Bruyn dan in die “pragtige” dorp bly as die water stink. Basson het die slegte reuk toegeskryf aan die lae vlak van die Albasinidam (12,33%), wat lae vlakke van suurstof in die water teweegbring en verbindings tussen minerale en organiese materiaal veroorsaak.

Problem of stray dogs a municipal problem SPCA News

The Louis Trichardt SPCA has once again reminded members of the public that attending to reports of stray animals is not the SPCA’s job. Stray animals are the responsibility of the Makhado Municipality. “However, we will always still try and assist where possible, but we just don’t have the resources or manpower to get around to all these cases,” said the local SPCA’s Alicia Thomas. She added that they had become burdened with this task because of the ineffectiveness of the municipality. “We act as the small-animal pound on behalf of the municipality and still do not receive any assistance or grants from them!” said Alicia. Another job not done by the municipality is the removal of animal carcasses. For months now, the local SPCA has tried to get the municipality to fulfil their legal obligation to dispose of animal carcasses. This used Because the Makhado Municipality is not doing its job regarding the removal of animal carcasses, to be done at the old dumping ground along the these two dogs were left to rot in the park next the Forestry road for three days last week. Although Vondeling Road. Since the dumping site moved to it is not their job, the local SPCA removed the carcasses when informed of the problem. Sadly, its new location behind Tshikota, the municipality has stopped disposing of animal carcasses as they the owner of the dogs knew they were lying dead in the park. Photos supplied. apparently forgot to have this service included in their new waste-management license. Back to the problem of stray animals. Despite the fact that their job does not entail attending to stray animals, Alicia said, some residents become very angry when the SPCA is unable to assist. “Just last week, three of our committee members and the State Vet were notified of dogs fighting in town. While we were attending to these hurt animals, we were notified of more stray dogs by a member of the public. When we said that we would not be able to attend to the problem right away, this member of the public became rude and quite offensive towards us,” said Alicia. According to Alicia, stray dogs specifically are becoming a huge problem in town. “Owners simply do not take the responsibility to make sure their animals are safe in their yards,” said Alicia. Regarding the above, Alicia said that the public could assist them with stray animals in various ways. “These stray animals are not always easily caught; believe us, we have tried,” said Alicia. She urged people, if possible, to bring the stray or injured animal to the SPCA themselves. “We definitely do appreciate it when people take the time to inform us of a stray animal, but so often when we reach the area in which the animal was last seen, it is no longer there,” said Alicia. In cases where an animal needs saving, Alicia

urged the public to phone inspector Lawrence Khodobo at Tel 082 965 5151 or one of their committee members as soon as possible. “We cannot turn a blind eye to any animal in danger and will always try to help as soon as possible. We appreciate all notifications we receive from the public,” said Alicia. As for stray animals, Alicia said, the public must start to put more pressure on the municipality by reporting all stray animal cases and carcasses in the street to Mr Bernard Mokiri (stray animals) at 078 802 9412 and Mr Phineas Ndwakhulu (carcass removal) at 078 802 9414. “Hopefully, they will start doing their jobs when inundated with calls and not just rely on the SPCA to do their jobs for them!” said Alicia. In conclusion, Alicia reiterated the fact that their inspectors’ duty still lies first and foremost with animal-cruelty cases, but that they are always willing to assist if he is not out on a call. “If we had to attend to each call regarding a stray animal, it would be impossible to get to all the cruelty cases we need to attend to as well,” said Alicia.

Ridgeway College boasts all new ECD centre By Bernard Chiguvare

“The quality of a child’s earliest environment and the availability of appropriate experiences at the right stages of development are crucial determinants of the way each child’s brain architecture develops,” said Richard Taggart, head of academics at the opening of an early childhood development (ECD) centre at Ridgeway College on Saturday. The new block can accomMiss Priscilla Shikuhele recently walked away with a brand new Bernette Sew & Go 1 sewing modate 100 children, twice the machine in the Bernina Makhado lucky draw competition.

OPT OUT NOTICE You may be eligible to claim compensation if you are currently or have been a GOLD MINEWORKER in South Africa, at any time after 12 March 1965, and have been exposed to silica dust or you have contracted silicosis or tuberculosis (“TB”) OR you are A DEPENDANT (for example, the wife, child or life partner) of such a gold mineworker who has since passed away, PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT MAY AFFECT YOUR RIGHTS. THE SETTLEMENT On 3 May 2018, six mining companies - African Rainbow Minerals, Anglo American SA, AngloGold Ashanti, Gold Fields, Harmony and Sibanye-Stillwater and some of their affiliates (“the participating gold mining companies”) reached a conditional settlement to pay compensation to eligible gold mineworkers and the dependants of such mineworkers who have passed away. The proposed settlement will settle the claims against the participating gold mining companies arising from the class action that was initiated before the High Court for: • the harm and loss suffered by mineworkers who contracted silicosis and/or TB during their work on certain gold mines in South Africa, and • the harm and loss suffered by the dependants of mineworkers who died of these diseases. The settlement was approved by the High Court in Johannesburg on 26 July 2019.

WHO IS INCLUDED IN THE SETTLEMENT? You are a class member, and will be included in the settlement, if you meet all the requirements of any of the four classes: Class 1:

Class 2:

All people: 1. who as at the date when the settlement agreement comes into force, have undertaken risk work. In terms of the settlement agreement, risk work means “risk work” as defined in the Occupational Diseases in Mines and Works Act, 1973 or any of the following work: (i) work in the underground workings of a gold mine; (ii) work in a laundry where clothing of underground mineworkers is washed; (iii) work on a slimes dam of a gold mine; (iv) work in an assay laboratory of a gold mine where the composition of gold bearing ore is analysed, and where the mass of respirable dust from personal sampling is determined; (v) work in a metallurgical plant of a gold mine, including crushing, milling, transporting and smelting of ore; and (vi) work at conveyor belt operations which are undertaken to convey broken rock from the underground operations of a gold mine to surface; 2. who on or before the date when the settlement agreement comes into force, have contracted silicosis or have been exposed to silica dust; 3. who undertake or have undertaken risk work on one or more of the mines listed in Annexure A of this notice after 12 March 1965; and 4. who did not settle their claims in previously finalised settlements with Anglo American South Africa Limited and AngloGold Ashanti Limited on 14 March 2016 and Anglo American South Africa Limited on 19 September 2013, respectively. The dependants of any of the persons in Class 1 above who are deceased as at the date when the settlement agreement comes into force.

Class 3:

All people: 1. who as at the date when the settlement agreement comes into force have undertaken risk work; 2. who on, before or after the date when the settlement agreement will come into force have contracted Tuberculosis; and 3. who undertake or have undertaken risk work, after 12 March 1965, on one or more of the gold mines listed in Annexure A of this notice.

Class 4:

The dependants of any of the persons in Class 3 above who are deceased as at the date when the settlement agreement comes into force.

WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF THE SETTLEMENT? The settlement is not yet in force because some of its conditions have not yet been met. If the conditions are met, the participating gold mining companies will establish a fund, called the TSHIAMISO TRUST. If the settlement agreement comes into force: • The participating gold mining companies will pay agreed contributions to the Tshiamiso Trust and the process of paying compensation can start. • All class members can submit a claim to the Tshiamiso Trust for monetary compensation, except for those class members who opt out of the settlement. • Details of how to submit a claim to the Tshiamiso Trust will be published in the media and on the website www.silicosissettlement.co.za. • The Tshiamiso Trust will pay compensation to eligible claimants. An eligible claimant is a person who is a member of any of the classes and who meets the requirements of the Tshiamiso Trust to receive monetary compensation. • Class members must submit a completed claim form to the Tshiamiso Trust and may have to undergo a medical examination to determine if they are eligible claimants. Once the settlement agreement is in force, eligible claimants will be entitled to receive a once-off payment of between R10 000 and R250 000, depending on the nature and seriousness of the disease. In certain exceptional circumstances, this amount may be increased to up to R500 000. The full terms of the final settlement as well as the Court’s decision approving the settlement are available at www.silicosissettlement.co.za or can be obtained from the Class Lawyers (contact details below). YOU DO NOT NEED TO PAY ANYONE TO ASSIST YOU TO MAKE YOUR CLAIM

of Education and the Makhado mayor’s office, attended the opening ceremony. During his address to the parents, Taggart outlined the importance of an ECD. He said that children were taught discipline and responsibility and could receive instruction and interpret requests more easily. Another advantage of such a centre is that children are exposed to their peers and they learn how to interact with other children. They also learn how to deal with conflicts that may arise. Taggart assured parents that if teachers and parents did things right in the early years, then they

should expect to see children thrive throughout school and their adult lives. During the opening ceremony, parents were entertained by children reading poems as well as performing dance items. The ECD was officially opened by the Department of Education’s Soutpansberg East circuit manager, Mr Falaza Baloyi. Parents and learners then had the opportunity to inspect the new ECD block. Some ECD learners rushed to play games, using some apparatus in the new classrooms, while others enjoyed themselves on the new playground next to the new block.

In 1978 het hy matrikuleer aan Tom Naudé in Pietersburg, waarna hy as ‘n vakleerling elektrisiën aangesluit het by Yskor, Pretoria. Vanaf 1979 tot 1983 het hy by Yskor sy vakleerling- en lugmagdienspligopleiding ontvang,

waarna hy aan die einde van 1983 gekwalifiseer het as ‘n volwaardige elektrisiën. Dit was gedurende hierdie tyd dat Paul sy trouvrou, Rosetta, ontmoet het en hulle in November van 1982 die knoop deurgehaak het. In 1983 is Paul en Rosetta se eerste dogter, Riana, gebore, waarna Christa in 1984 gevolg het en Alta in 1988. (Vervolg op p. 13)

Drie generasies van Otto’s in familiebesigheid (Vervolg vanaf p. 12) In 2007 moes die gesin egter op ‘n tragiese wyse van Alta afskeid neem, nadat sy in ‘n motorongeluk oorlede is. Nadat Paul as elektrisiën gekwalifiseer het, was hy vir die volgende vyf jaar werksaam by die Pietersburg Silikoon Myn, waarna die gesin na Louis Trichardt verhuis het en Paul by die munisipaliteit begin werk het vanaf 1988 tot 1993. In 1993 gaan Paul en Rosetta ‘n waagstuk

aan en bedank albei uit hul werk en begin saam hul eie onderneming, PD Otto Elektries, wat in Januarie 1994 amptelik sy deure oopmaak. Sedertdien gaan die besigheid van krag tot krag, ook as familiebesigheid. In 2000 sluit eers Riana aan by haar ouers en in 2005 ook Christa. Riana het intussen (November 2016) gekwalifiseer as elektrisiën, met haar seun Jareth wat vanjaar met sy vakleerlingskap by die besigheid begin het. (Vervolg op p.14)

In 2000 sluit Riana by die besigheid aan en in November 2017 kwalifiseer sy as elektrisiën. Haar seun Jareth het vanjaar met sy vakleerlingskap by die besigheid begin. “As hy kwalifiseer, sal hy die derde generasie Otto wees wat as elektrisiën by die besigheid aansluit,” het Paul gesê. Van links na regs is Riana, Paul en Jareth. Foto verskaf.

Hierdie lojale personeel van PD Otto Elektries spog met meer as 20 jaar diens. Van links na regs is Ezekiel Mokwebo (24 jaar), Vasco Munyai (23 jaar), Phineas Mukoki (20 jaar), Thomas Ranurebiwa (20 jaar), Paul Otto (25 jaar), Rosetta Otto (25 jaar) en Riana Otto (20 jaar). Afwesig tydens die neem van die foto was Queen Rambau (23 jaar) en Ellias Khomola (afgetree op 65 jaar met 23 jaar diens).

(Vervolg van p.13) “As hy kwalifiseer, sal hy die derde generasie Otto wees wat as elektrisiën by die besigheid aansluit,” het Paul gesê. Buiten vir Riana (wat ook die besigheid se tenders hanteer) en Paul, wat nie net eienaar is nie maar ook hoof installasie-elektrisiën, het die besigheid nog twee gekwalifiseerde elektrisiëns, Adrian Steyn en Dries Hills. Kobus Otto (Christa se man) is in beheer van die daaglikse instandhoudingskontrakte van kliënte. Dries se seun Anton tree op sy beurt op as die besigheid se beroepsgesondheid en-veiligheidsbeampte wat die besigheid en werkers se veiligheid moet verseker. In die kantoor staan Rosetta in beheer van die administrasie en debiteure, met Christa wat die krediteure behartig. Hulle word bygestaan deur Annique van den Berg en Paul se suster, Vemsbey, as stoor- en voorraadbestuurder. “Mens is dankbaar vir wat jy vir jou familie kan doen,” sê Paul. Van die velde waarin PD Otto Elektries die laaste paar jare uitgebrei het, het ingesluit die hoogspanningsveld. “Dit sluit in oorhoofse hoogspanningskabels,” sê Paul. Hulle het ook hul werksmag aangevul met twee ekstra bakkiespanne. Onlangs het Paul-hulle ook ‘n 23-ton hyskraan aangekoop. “Die doel is om ook die hyskraan uit te verhuur,” sê Paul. Die kraan kan ook gemodifiseer word om as kersieplukker te werk. Deel van Paul-hulle se besigheidsfilosofie is om terug te ploeg in die gemeenskap. “As jy in ‘n klein gemeenskap funksioneer, moet jy teruggee aan die gemeenskap wat jou ondersteun. My pa - hy was ‘n plaasboer en padkontrakteur - het altyd vir my gesê, ‘Eet uit die gemeenskap, gee terug aan die gemeenskap’ en ons probeer,” sê Paul.

en Herfsakker), die skole, kerke en ook jaarliks by die Cansa Relay for Life. Laasgenoemde is ‘n teer puntjie vir Paul, wat self in Februarie 2017 met kolonkanker gediagnoseer is. “Jy kom nie agter wat is kanker tot jy self kanker gehad het nie,” sê Paul. Die kanker kon gelukkig suksesvol verwyder word en na twaalf sessies chemoterapie oor ses maande versprei is hy steeds in remissie. “Dit is net genade en ek dank die Vader daarvoor,” sê Paul. Wat Paul-hulle se toekomsvisie betref, het hulle hulself verbind tot volgehoue goeie diens aan die publiek. “Die geheim van goeie diens is as jy ‘n ‘comeback’ kry, gaan maak dit dadelik reg. Jy is net so goed soos jou werkers. As jou werkers nie hul werk reg doen nie, word jy nie weer gevra nie,” sê Paul. Hy het weereens gesê dat geen projek vir hulle te klein of te groot is om te hanteer nie.

Club honours achievers and plan for busy year Cricket News

About 160 athletes with disabilities, ranging from total blindness, partial sightedness, and deafness to various forms of physical disability, as well as a number of able-bodied scholars, came together at Louis Trichardt High School’s Leeupark for a morning of fun athletics, courtesy of the Isability Sports Club on Saturday. Internationally known South African blade runners Tebogo Mofokeng (left) and Daniel du Plessis, and world record holder Ntando Mahlangu (right), made the day truly special for the disabled youngsters by mingling with them, motivating them and giving ‘running’ commentary for much of the time. In an exhibition race by Ntando and Tebogo, some of our local strong, able-bodied lads challenged the amputees to a 400 m race – but Ntando came out tops, with Tebogo a close second.

The Louis Trichardt Cricket Club held its annual general meeting last Wednesday and reflected on a busy year with numerous achievements. The club’s chairperson, Joubert Fourie, gave feedback on the past year’s activities during the meeting. Special mention was made of the team that managed to win the Vhembe T20 league as well as the Limpopo promotional league. The club also produced the best bowler in the provincial T20 league and the promotional league (Dirk van den Berg) and the best batsmen in the T20 league and the promotional league respectively, namely Leon Olwage and Dewald Joubert. One of the club’s junior players, Gerhardus Fourie, was named as the best U/17 player in the province. Gerhardus is also a serious campaigner for a place in the SA Under 19 team. The cricket club’s new committee members were elected during the meeting. Joubert Fourie was re-elected as chairperson of the club, with Grant Phillipson also staying on as vice-chairperson. Dirk van den Berg is the club’s secretary, while Naomi Phillipson is the treasurer. The three additional members are Paulo Piorek, Dewald Joubert and Jandré Hancke.

As far as the local leagues are concerned, some fierce competition between the teams was the order of the day the past few weeks. Currently, a T20 league is in the process of being finalised. Five teams entered for this competition and the past weekend saw the semi-final rounds. Limpopo, the reigning champions, beat Strikers by 31 runs in the one semi-final. In the other semi-final, Vikings came up against Ridgeway. Vikings scored a 54-run victory to proceed to the final. The final of the local T20 league will be played on Sunday, and Limpopo will try and retain their unblemished record of the past few years. The match starts at 13:45. The club is also preparing for the Vhembe T20 league that starts in a few weeks’ time. The matches will be played on 15, 22 and 29 September. Matches will be played in the mornings as well as the afternoons. On a more social level, the club is organising a six-a-side tournament. Eight teams can be accommodated, and the entry fee is R600 per team. Entries close on 18 September and the first eight teams that have entered and paid will be accepted. For more information about the six-a-side tournament, Naomi Phillipson can be contacted at naomi@phillipson.co.za.

Wie kan help met raaisel oor klub se regte ouderdom? We are asking our readers for some assistance in dating photos and supplying a bit of history. A few weeks ago, we focussed on the Louis Trichardt Bowls Club in our weekly column on the region’s sport clubs. The members of the club estimated that the bowls club broke away from the then Louis Trichardt Country Club in around 1988 and established new courts on the corner of Anderson and Ruh Street. The founding date of the club was set as “just before 1964”. The past week we received a few historic photos from the Transnet Heritage Library. These photos are dated 1951. At first we thought that the photos might be incorrectly dated, but on closer inspection it looks as if the bowling courts were established at that location prior to 1950. The backgrounds in the photos give interesting clues. In the one photo, the tennis courts are visible. The tennis club moved to its current location around 1948. In the other photo, the empty area next to the reservoir on the hill is clearly visible. The photo could not have been taken in the 1980s, as the area had been developed with numerous houses and streets by then. If you can shed more light on the photos, please contact Anton van Zyl at 015-5164996/7 or send him an email at anton@zoutnet.co.za.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt se fietsryspan het Saterdag aan ‘n vriendskaplike kompetisie op Levubu deelgeneem teen die span van Laerskool Levubu. Dit is die eerste jaar wat Levubu se fietsryspan aan die skoleliga deelneem en die skool se spannetjie verbeter met elke byeenkoms. Tydens Saterdag se byeenkoms het Louis Trichardt vyf wedrenne gewen en Levubu een. Louis Trichardt het 23 kinders ingeskryf, maar nie almal kon klaarmaak nie. Die dik sand het ‘n klompie fietsryers onkant gevang en hulle het onttrek na hulle geval het. Hier is Louis Trichardt se spanlede afgeneem tydens die byeenkoms. Louis Trichardt se span het Lizelle Venter en die Levubu-span bedank vir Saterdag se reëlings. Foto: Mark Archer.

The idyllic golf course at the foot of Hanglip

Louis Trichardt

History

The Soutpansberg Golf Club is one of the oldest sports clubs in town, with its roots stretching back to the period after World War I. During that period, the Soutpansberg region saw an influx of British settlers and many people came from Britain to live in the Bushveld as part of a settler scheme introduced by the 1820 Settlers Foundation. “Bandelierkop, a small settlement to the south of Louis Trichardt, had a significant English population. They were ostensibly into cattle ranching. There was a golf course, and the local people liked playing polo. There was a hotel, and the local shopkeeper shops and the colonial folks liked visiting Louis Trichardt on occasion,” writes Johann Tempelhoff in his book, Townspeople of the Soutpansberg. According to Tempelhoff’s research, the English-speaking community in Louis Trichardt expanded quickly and so did the sports and other activities that they enjoyed. “In May 1927 the Council had to consider the rules of the Louis Trichardt Golf Club. At one stage the golf course, which today only has nine holes, boasted a fine 18. The club house came only after World War II,” writes Tempelhoff. Tempelhoff also quotes a former club captain, the late Mr Sydney Schultz, when he talks about the early years. “…there used to be a little thatch hut from which the golfers operated. It was there where they used to have tea and change their clothes. If they wanted to have drinks the golfers had to go to the Hotel Louis downtown.”

To top off the layout at Soutpansberg Golf Club, facilities are available to cater for the golfer’s every need: A well-stocked bar, delicious meals on the menu, a Pro-Shop and restrooms with showers. The golf club lures a large number of tourists to the region every year. The highlight on the club’s calendar is the Hanglip 54 tournament. In July every year, this three-day tournament takes place. It celebrated its 26th birthday in 2019.

In the early 1990s, a young member of the club, Vic Grobler, started making a name for himself in golfing circles. He participated in the pro-circuit from 1990 to 1992, during which time he competed against players such as Ernie Els. A former junior member of the club, Hendrikus Stoop, currently competes on the professional circuit and is doing reasonably well.

Die Zoutpansberger is besig om ‘n gids saam te stel wat die sportklubs in die dorp en onmiddellike omgewing insluit. Die idee is om die inligting op ons webtuiste te stoor waar ons ‘n blad vir elke klub genereer. Vir die volgende klompie maande wil ons probeer om elke week rofweg ‘n halfblad in die koerant af te staan aan ‘n spesifieke sportklub. Hierdie inligting word dan oorgedra na die webtuiste. In elke week se koerant is daar dan ook ‘n lys met al die sportklubs wat weekliks verskyn. Die plan is om langs elke sportklub se naam ‘n QR-skakel te hê wat dan wys na die webblad. Daar is geen koste verbonde aan die projek nie. Dit is nie ‘n kommersiële projek nie en ons idee is slegs om inwoners meer bewus te maak van die geaffilieerde sportklubs en hulle in staat te stel om vinnig en maklik uit te vind watter sportklubs is aktief in die streek en hoe om hulle te kontak. Stuur asb. inligting oor sportklubs na anton@ zoutnet.co.za of news@zoutnet.co.za. • Soutpansberg Squash Club Oranje str 1
