piritual Crime Prevention volunteers stepped in last week after two young learners at Strandfontein High School committed suicide in two separate incidents. The Western Cape Education

Department confirmed that two learners died under “tragic” circumstances but said it could not confirm the causes of death. Police spokesperson Sgt Wesley Twigg confirmed that an inquest docket had been opened into one of the deaths. “Strandfontein police registered an

inquest for investigation following the death of a young boy on Wednesday 2 September, at about 16:38,” he said, confirming that the death did not take place at the school but in a street in Bayview.

Pensioner wins R12 000 in Pulse competition LAUREN O’CONNOR-MAY

LAUREN.OCONNOR-MAY@NOVUSMEDIA.CO.ZA

London Village pensioner’s late night code scanning won him R12 000. Pierre Fransman of Mitchells Plain scanned the PULSE code in this paper, answered a three-question survey, and walked away with R12 000 in the monthly lucky draw. Fransman is a regular TygerBurger reader who says he eagerly awaits the paper every Wednesday. The 56-yearold said he scanned the QR code “more than 50 times” and was delighted to win because he enjoys the paper’s “content and variety”. “Sometimes, I’d wake up in the middle of the night and then I would just enter a few times. This is the first time I won something so big. I’m really grateful. It really comes in handy.”

MONTHLY DRAW “The draw is running again this month, and entering is straightforward,” said a Novus Media spokesperson. “Find the PULSE ad in the paper, scan the code and answer the survey. It’s two or three questions and takes about two minutes. Every survey you complete puts your name in the draw, so if you do it all four weeks, that’s four entries instead of one.”

. .

The questions are simple and are aimed at helping TygerBurger get to know its readers better. “The questions are about where you live, the shops you use, the services you get, what you think about things happening in the area. Answering costs a small amount of data, not much more than opening a photo,” the spokesperson said. When you scan, you’ll also be asked if you want to join the PULSE loyalty programme. Members get sent extra competitions during the week. “PULSE will give away R2 000 in grocery vouchers every week to a lucky loyalty member, on top of the monthly R10 000,” the spokesperson said. AUGUST WINNERS Fransman was among five winners in August: Bulelwa Ngcana, Allan Coltman, Carmelita Larney, and a PULSE loyalty member who chose to remain anonymous. They each won R2 000 in vouchers. You could be a winner too. Look for the PULSE ad in the paper and scan the code.

Flying Squad recovers six vehicles

T

VEHICLES HAD BEEN HIJACKED ALL OVER THE CITY

he Flying Squad, working with crime intelligence, recovered six stolen vehicles and arrested a 24-year-old man in Mandalay on Friday 11 September. Acting on information, the team went to a house in Dickens Drive, Mandalay, where they found a Toyota Starlet that had been hijacked in Harare recently. They then went to a second address in Melderson Road, where they found four VW Polos and a Toyota Hilux.

been tampered with, and some had been removed entirely. Further investigation showed that some of the vehicles were connected to hijacking cases reported at Cape Town Central, Woodstock, and Muizenberg Police Stations between July and September. The 24-year-old suspect was due to appear in the Mitchells Plain Magistrates’ Court on Monday 14 September.

then hosted the second prayer event on 6 September.

CALL TO PRAYER Strandfontein Community Police Forum chair, Sandy Schuter-Flowers, said the two incidents happened weeks apart. She confirmed that the Spiritual Crime Prevention unit had gone to the school on 6 September and held a prayer hour there which had been opened to the community. The education department’s Bronagh Hammond said condolences and counselling had been offered to the school. “Our sincere condolences go out to the families, friends and the broader school community during this extremely difficult time.” She added that ongoing interventions by the South African Depression and Anxiety Group (Sadag) and the police are planned. Schuter-Flowers said Sadag had joined Strandfontein’s Victim Support team during a traumaresponse outreach the day after the boy died. “It was such a powerful morning, on the back of sadness,” she said, explaining that the response from Spiritual Crime Prevention, Sadag and the ward councillor Elton Jansen, who attended in his capacity as a pastor, was swift. “We opened it up to the different faiths and everyone was praying around the school and in the community.” Spiritual Crime Prevention

SUPPORT She said a team was put together after that and focused on on-going emotional support at the school. Taswill Welcome of Sadag said he facilitates a support group at the school. “The Strandfontein community has been left shaken and heartbroken following the tragic loss of a second student to suicide in just a matter of weeks, a devastating blow that has underscored the urgent need for mental health intervention,” Welcome said. Welcome also runs The Taswill Welcome Foundation which supports communities with suicide and mental health awareness. “This includes research on societal issues, conducted in collaboration with postgraduate and honours students from various Western Cape universities, as well as delivering mental health education across all age groups, from childhood through adulthood,” Welcome explained. He said calls for suicide intervention have become a neardaily occurrence. “I receive calls at all hours — day or night — to help deescalate crises and offer immediate referral support.” Welcome said that as an immediate response Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises were done at the school, in collaboration with the Metro South Educational Psychologist and Sadag Suicide Helpline

posters will be put up. “Suicide prevention flyers and accompanying educational discussions will be integrated into school reports, official statements, and parent-teacher interactions moving forward,” Welcome said. Additionally, The Taswill Welcome Foundation will launch a pilot support group at the school, he said. “This initiative aims to provide a safe, confidential space where teachers can share their challenges, learn coping mechanisms, and practise stressrelief exercises, strengthening their own well-being so they can continue to support their students,” he said. REAL-TIME HELP A dedicated WhatsApp group was also started, in partnership with the CPF and Jansen, "enabling real-time assistance”, Welcome said. “We believe this is the beginning of a mentally healthier community,” Welcome said. WHO TO CONTACT You can contact the Suicide Crisis Helpline at 0800 567 567, the Cipla Mental Health Helpline at 0800 456 789 or the Substance Abuse Helpline at 0800 12 13 14. The numbers for the WhatsApp helplines are: Cipla Chat Line: 076 882 2775 Maybelline BraveTogether: 087 163 2030. The WhatsApp lines are only available during office hours. Alternatively, you can send an SMS at any time, day or night, to 31393. For more information, visit the Sadag website at www.sadag.org.

Ready D throws hat in mayoral ring BRENDEN RUITER k sê kykie my broe, al daai dinge moet djy los, want die geld kon geganit vir die wiek se kos...” If you were a youngster in the nineties, you would be rapping along with the lyrics to the Prophets of da City songs and dancing to the beats created by legendary DJ Ready D. Ready D, is a Grandmaster at spinning decks and moving thousands of people with his sounds, but with the local government election around the corner he has thrown his trademark cap into the ring as the mayoral candidate for the People’s Movement for Change. Last week, the well-known hip hop artist and DJ, who grew up in Mitchells Plain, also received a Ministerial Commendation for his contribution to South African hip-hop and its role in advancing cultural identity and artistic expression at the Western Cape Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport (DCAS’s) annual Cultural Awards.

“E

BURNING QUESTIONS But first things first, what should the electorate call him? “You are welcome to call me by my birth name, Deon Daniels. Grandmaster Ready D represents a significant part of my journey, my contribution to the South African music landscape, and the work I have done with communities and young people. But ultimately, whether you call me Deon or Ready D, I remain the same person with the same values,” says Daniels in response to TygerBurger’s questions. Why politics, his fans might ask? “For me, this decision is not about wanting a political title. It is about reaching a point where I believe my experience, relationships, and understanding of communities can contribute to meaningful change. I have spent decades working with people,

particularly young people, and creating opportunities through music, education, community development, and mentorship. I have seen both the challenges people face and the incredible potential that exists within our communities. I also believe that if good people continue to stand outside the system because they are disillusioned by politics, we leave the space open for the very things we complain about. I am stepping forward because I believe we can do politics differently with humility, transparency, accountability, and a genuine focus on solving problems.” Daniels does not fear that politics may taint his legacy. “Politics has unfortunately been portrayed as a dirty game, and over time individuals have certainly contributed to that perception. But I don’t believe politics itself has to be dirty. People determine the character of politics. I come into this with a clean slate, clean intentions, and nothing to prove other than what I can contribute. “My legacy wasn’t built overnight. It was built over decades of consistency, hard work, community involvement, and remaining true to who I am. I am not prepared to compromise that. If anything, I believe my legacy gives me a responsibility to use the platform I have built to do more. I am not entering politics to protect my legacy. I am entering because I believe the next chapter of my life should be about creating a legacy of opportunity for others.” MAN FOR THE COMMUNITY Besides being one of the best DJs South Africa has ever produced, Daniels has always been a man for the community. “My community work has been running alongside my career for many years. Through the Great Cape Ambassadors Program (GCAP) and its various

HIP-HOP ARTIST AND DJ TAKES A STEP ‘FORWARD’ INTO POLITICAL ARENA TO DO IT ‘DIFFERENTLY’

initiatives, we have worked with young people around education, mentorship, music, creativity, road safety, skills development, and creating platforms where young people can discover their potential. Through the Beatbangaz DJ Academy, we use DJing as a vehicle for skills development, mentorship, and personal growth. We have worked with young people from communities that don’t always have access to opportunities, equipment, networks, or spaces. “Our road safety initiatives have also allowed us to connect with young people through something they understand and enjoy such as music, cars, motorsport, and culture, while having serious conversations about responsible behaviour and safer communities. I have also worked extensively with young people internationally, and that has reinforced something

I strongly believe: talent is everywhere, but opportunity isn’t. That is one of the things I want to change.” MISSION TO LISTEN Daniels says if elected, his first mission would be to listen. “Before making promises, I want to understand what residents, communities, businesses, workers, and young people experience every day. I would want a clear picture of where the City is succeeding, where it is failing, and where we can make immediate improvements. My five main priorities would be creating opportunities and growing the local economy, safer communities, youth development, better basic services and accountable governance, and building a more connected and inclusive Cape Town.” He says Cape Town has enormous potential, but

opportunity must not be concentrated in certain areas or communities. “We need to connect people to opportunities, infrastructure, markets, education, and investment. Ultimately, my approach is simple: people before politics, solutions over division, and opportunity over empty promises. I think what sets me apart is that I am not entering this journey as a career politician. I come from the community. I have experienced displacement, hardship, and the challenges that many ordinary Capetonians understand. I know what it means to start with very little and having to create opportunities for yourself. “I have spent decades building relationships across music, broadcasting, business, government, community organisations, and youth development. I have worked with people from various backgrounds and learned that you don’t have to agree with someone to respect them or work with them. I also don’t believe I have all the answers, and I think that is important. Leadership is not about knowing everything. It is about knowing how to listen, bringing the right people into the room, making informed decisions, and being accountable for the outcome. I am not entering politics as a saviour. I am entering as someone who believes Cape Town has enormous potential and that its people deserve leadership that listens, creates opportunities, gets things done, and puts people before politics.” Whether you call him Grandmaster Ready D or Deon Daniels, he is focusing on changing lives. “My past explains why I am here. It does not define where I am going. I am looking forward, and I want to help build a future where our young people have more opportunities than the generations before them.”

Public input needed on electricity market plan Eskom may lose its energy monopoly if a new paper by the Department of Electricity and Energy paper is approved. The position paper, which the department opened for comment last week, sets out government’s plan to transform the electricity sector and one of the strategies it proposes is a competitive wholesale electricity market where customers can choose who they buy from. Minister of Electricity and Energy Dr Kgosientsho Ramokgopa published the document for public comment on August 21. SOME POINTS OF NOTE The document acknowledges that over the past two decades the sector has faced “a lack of adequate and reliable generating capacity”. It says government interventions have helped to “successfully resolve the most recent load shedding crisis”, but adds that “further structural transformations are essential”. For households that have solar panels or are considering going off the grid, the document says they

“will not have to pay any system charges”. However, “those that rely on the grid for some power or want to sell their excess energy will be required to pay network charges”. The document also recognises small-scale power generators connected to local distribution networks as part of the future market, though a minimum size threshold for participation will be set at a later stage. The document places strong emphasis on reducing the carbon emissions from electricity generation. HOW TO COMMENT Comments must be submitted by September 20. Comments can be sent by post to Private Bag X 96, Pretoria 0001 or emailed to EMTPP.Queries@ dee.gov.za. Comments must be addressed to the Director-General of the Department of Electricity and Energy, marked for the attention of Ms Vusani Ramuntshi. Submissions should include the name, address, contact telephone number, fax number and email address of the person or organisation commenting.

Nomination window closing RESIDENTS ENCOURAGED TO NOMINATE LOCAL UNSUNG HEROES

LAUREN O’CONNOR-MAY

LAUREN.OCONNOR-MAY@NOVUSMEDIA.CO.ZA

he previous winners of the Mitchells Plain United Residents Association (Mura) Community Service Awards show the range of service recognised by the ceremony. Mura is planning another awards ceremony and has invited residents to nominate their local unsung heroes. Mura chair Norman Jantjes said: “One of Mura’s key objectives is to develop community cohesion and restore community pride and we are therefore planning our second Community Service Awards Ceremony for Friday 30 October.” Jantjes said the event aims to promote positive role models. “We aim to recognise and acknowledge individuals that go the extra mile in serving the community. The event furthermore hopes to promote positive role models and service excellence,” he said. PREVIOUS WINNERS Jantjes said winners from the first event show the calibre of nominations Mura are looking for. Like Safety and Security winner, Cassiem Gamiet. Gamiet of Lentegeur received an award for more than 30 years of service as a neighbourhood watch and community police forum (CPF) member. Janjes said he was a founding member of the Mitchells Plain Neighbourhood Watch Association and the Mitchells Plain Community Police Forum. Another winner, Clive Arries, won an award for his contribution to education. Arries is the chair of the Mitchells Plain Principals Association. He has received numerous awards as a principal of West End Primary School in Lentegeur, which has also won several awards under his mentorship, including being named among

the top 10 schools in the world. Lentegeur Pharmacy owner Iqbal Salwary won an award for running the oldest independent pharmacy in Mitchells Plain. The establishment is known as the “people’s pharmacy” and Salwary is wellknown in the area for his philanthropy. The late Beatrice Leng, who was known widely as Auntie Beatie, was recognised in the Mura Awards Civic category before she passed away. Leng founded the Leadwood crèche and led the Leadwood seniors group. The unofficial “mayor of Tafelsig” was a prolific volunteer at several organisations, including at the Department of Social Development. Leng ran several seniors’ clubs, started nonprofit organisations, organised soup kitchens and founded neighbourhood watches. ABOUT MURA Mura is an umbrella residents’ organisation established in 2016. Jantjes said it is an apolitical organisation which works to unite Mitchells Plain residents and improve their quality of life. NOMINATIONS Nominations close on Friday 25 September and no late entries will be considered. Successful nominees will be invited to a black-tie gala dinner on Friday 30 October at Westend Primary School.

The MyCiTi red lane is constructed along AZ Berman Drive.

Residents advised of night-time roadworks on AZ Berman Drive Night-time construction work is set to begin along AZ Berman Drive in Mitchells Plain as the City of Cape Town continues its MyCiTi Phase 2A project. The work, which will take place between Nduli Street and Wespoort Drive, is due to start on Monday 14 September and continue until 14 December, if all goes according to plan. The City's Urban Mobility Directorate is carrying out the road and transport improvements to prepare the route for expanded MyCiTi bus services. Rob Quintas, the City's Mayco member for urban mobility, said: "These improvements are aimed at enhancing our road network and preparing this corridor for expanded MyCiTi services, which allows us to provide better public transport and travel conditions for the residents of Mitchells Plain to keep Cape Town moving day after day." He added: "I would like to thank residents, businesses and commuters

for their continued patience as some construction-related noise may occur over the next few months." WHAT TO EXPECT The work will be carried out from Monday to Saturday, between 19:00 and 05:00, and some construction-related noise may occur during these hours. Residential properties, businesses and public facilities with approved access will remain open throughout the construction period. Road users can expect temporary traffic flow changes along sections of AZ Berman Drive, with traffic signage and traffic officials on hand to guide them safely through the construction area.

Cape Chamber launches free online learning hub for businesses The Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry has launched a new Enterprise Development Hub, a growing collection of free, practical short courses to help people and organisations develop their skills. The online courses cover a range of topics, from finding your first clients to using artificial intelligence in business. They are aimed at people running their own businesses, employees of large companies, and organisations that are not businesses. “It’s a growing library of free, practical micro-courses designed to help people and organisations build their capabilities,”

said Robyn Border from the Chamber. TWO WAYS TO BENEFIT Border said there are two ways to benefit from the hub. The first is to use the courses to improve your own skills and those of your team, so your organisation can grow. People are encouraged to share the hub with others, as the more people who benefit, the better. “When people and organisations build their capabilities, our regional economy grows stronger,” said Border. The second way is available to chamber members only. Members who have useful

knowledge or experience can create a short course for the hub. While the hub is not a place to advertise, sharing expertise is a form of exposure, Border said. When people find the knowledge useful, they will know where to turn if they need further help. “When employees, entrepreneurs or those in public service grow their capabilities and as a result grow and improve their organisations, our regional economy strengthens,” she said. LIVE TRAINING CONTINUES The Chamber also continues to offer live

online seminars and in-person training to both members and non-members. Border said live training offers something the online courses cannot. “While knowledge is freely available, wisdom is not. The ability of trained experts to tailor that knowledge to your organisation’s needs in an interactive way, is what sets our live training sessions apart.” People can browse the chamber’s events calendar to see upcoming training opportunities. You can access the hub at https://www. worldclasscities.org/pages/capechamber

THINKING OUT LOUD

Municipalities adding 16% profit to your electricity bill Recently at the office, I received a message on my phone from my Fungi application — it’s time to load money for electricity again. From the conversation that followed with colleagues, it appears everyone has suddenly become several hundred rands worse off within a year. Some as much as R1 000 on their electricity bills. Then there are those who still receive a traditional electricity bill, on which astronomical amounts are simply loaded out of the blue. And to sort it out is nearly impossible. Meanwhile, you just have to pay, or the municipality will simply cut you off. The annual tug-of-war between Eskom and the price regulator, Nersa, leaves consumers increasingly cold. This, usually accompanied by talk that our electricity is actually still cheap. That’s why it remains sensible for those who can afford it to increasingly replace electricity consumption with self-sufficiency, for example through solar panels. The big snake in the grass, however, is profit-taking by metro councils and municipalities. On average, they load about 16% profit onto the consumer’s electricity bill. Some of the councils, which are notorious for poor management, wasteful spending and corruption, make up to a third of their income from electricity. It is time that serious questions are asked about this. The campaign for the local election is the ideal opportunity for voters to place this

..

LOCAL GOVERNMENT SHOULD ... BE ABOUT SERVICE DELIVERY

..

on the agenda. Local government should in any case not be about party politics, but rather about service delivery. Ask your local candidates what their policy is on the cost of your electricity bill. Tell them that, rather than blue, yellow or green pamphlets with photos and old promises, this will determine your vote. Electricity bills should in principle be for electricity consumption. Other services must be handled according to a clear and accountable cost scale. Transparent and separate. Too large salary bills, too expensive vehicles, excessive entertainment and catering bills, and then the notorious tenders become too tasty a gravy train from our electricity bills. On top of that, we get no value for money — the overall state of service delivery speaks for itself. Most voters don’t get meals at work. They must pack their own sandwich or buy something at the work canteen, or elsewhere. Tshwane and Cape Town have already scrapped meals for general council meetings. They can easily go further and make sure this applies to all committee sittings as well. This is just one example of how a general and undefined profit levy on electricity bills can be abused. The number of councillors and duplicated functions with other government levels are further issues that need attention. The number of officials versus value in outputs is another issue. Candidate who make themselves available to become councillors should be informed about these matters. So, armed with a plan on how to reduce profit-taking on our electricity bills, wait for them with your electricity bill and get their position on record. Candidates who have voters’ interests at heart will show this through meaningful solutions. The time for everyone to get their backs up about this is now. — BARNARD BEUKMAN (editor of the Afrikaans weekly newspaper, DIE PAPIER.)

Animal bylaw flawed and not applied fairly The Draft Animal Bylaw has already sparked widespread and valid public criticism. The reality is that the majority of animal and pet owners maintain their animals to a high standard of care and are not dependent on welfare organisations. In fact, many owners actively support and donate to welfare initiatives. When compared to the broader pet–keeping community, welfare statistics represent only a small fraction of the overall picture. Yet, the

motivations presented by the CoCT suggest that animal welfare organisations have proportionately influenced the drafting of this bylaw. Breed associations, clubs, and other key stakeholders were not consulted, while welfare groups appear to have been the primary voices engaged. It is also publicly acknowledged that enforcement of existing laws is inconsistent. For example, livestock roaming freely in Kuils River and along the N2 pose a

Sal dit nie beter wees om ander diere-instellings te finansier nie? My vraag oor die nuwe diere-verordening wat die Stad Kaapstad wil instel – sou dit nie beter wees om die DBV en Cape Wildlife beter te finansier nie? Ek het gister ’n grysduiker hier by Bracken Gate 2 in Cecil Morganstraat gevang. Ons het die duikertjie vasgebind en die DBV se afdeling vir wilde diere gekontak. Ongelukkig is hulle so besig en onderfinansier dat hulle nie dadelik kon uitkom nie. Ek het besluit om hom – vir die dier se welstand – uit die gebied te neem na my woning oorkant die pad in Sonkring, waar daar minder verkeer is en ek hom kon losmaak sodat hy in my agtertuin kon rustig word.

Die DBV het my later laat weet ek kan hom na TAH Bellville neem vir verdowing en stabilisering. Ek het toe maar deur die loop van die aand met TAH in kontak gebly en die DBV kon toe die duikertjie omstreeks 21:00 neem. Neem ook in ag ek het die Stad Kaapstad ook gebel, ’n verwysingsnommer gekry en tot nou toe niks verder [gehoor] nie. Wat regtig aan my vreet, is dat hierdie nuwe verordeninge net geleentheid vir korrupsie gaan skep. Ek verstaan dis om dinge soos hondegevegte te voorkom, maar om gewone mense soos ek met twee angstige hondjies te straf, is onaanvaarbaar. BRENDON VILJOEN, Brackenfell

Now is the time to think differently about how you use water resources Premier Alan Winde recently issued what he called a “call to action”, urging Western Cape residents to prepare for a hotter, drier summer driven by a particularly strong El Niño cycle. We would do well to listen. The province has allocated R12 million for the upcoming fire season, which has already started earlier than expected, with a wildfire reported in the Cape Winelands in late August. While dam levels may look acceptable on paper, the Premier rightly cautioned that the severe flooding in May does not mean we received enough rain to secure our water resources through summer. El Niño brings warmer-than-normal temperatures and below-average rainfall. If it lingers for six to nine months, as

experts warn it could, we could find ourselves in a precarious position. This is not a time for complacency. We have been here before. We know what nearing day zero felt like, and we know what it took to pull back from the brink. The Premier's warning should not be filed away as another government press release. It is a heads-up from a man who has seen the modelling and does not like what it shows. Now is the time to start thinking differently about water use, to clear vegetation around properties in fire-risk areas, and to take seriously the simple measures that could make a real difference when the heat arrives. MINDFUL RESIDENT, Durbanville

serious danger to motorists, yet these animals are not impounded. This selective enforcement undermines confidence in the fairness of regulation. Stakeholders are now permitted only to “comment” rather than to meaningfully participate in shaping the bylaw. That is not democracy. True democratic process requires consultation, equal treatment, and the inclusion of all affected parties in decision making. WEHAHN GELDENHUYS, Brackenfell

CoCT’s animal bylaw not designed to aid animals I am shocked to see a heavily redacted and slanted version of the proposed animal keeping bylaw published in the media. This is clearly a version of the proposed bylaw put out by the City of Cape Town’s PR department. This proposed bylaw is impossible to implement in the townships as we have seen during the last 20 years where animal welfare is left completely in the hands of public donations and volunteers. The article makes no mention of the proposed bylaw giving the City the right to raid our homes without a warrant, to confiscate pets, to charge a permit fee for every pet, to make regular rabies vaccination mandatory. And to impose jail time for not complying. This proposed by law is not designed to aid animals. CONCERNED ANIMAL WELFARE VOLUNTEER, Durbanville

Walk down Dolphin Beach and see the poo I am reading that the Table View beach project is near completion. Well, the newly paved area near Dolphin Beach needs urgent attention. There are half a dozen areas where the bricks have dropped. I showed this to one of the workmen there, while we walked the path. Nothing has been done, a month later! To the City of Cape Town project management, get Eddie Andrews to walk along that path. The vast amounts of dog poo is another problem, most people seem not to bother. So the sunken bricks and dog excrement is a serious matter. P MARAIS, Email

WALKING COMMUNITY FUN DAY

Legends unite for friend

S

occer legends from across the Western Cape showed they can still teach the young ones how it is done at the Walking Community Fun Day on Sunday 13 September in Belgravia. The event, a fundraiser to assist soccer legend Farouk Abraham with his cancer treatment, was organised in collaboration with Farouk Abrahams Goalkeeper Academy, Football Kings and Walking Football Cape Town, amongst others. A total of 16 soccer teams participated in the five-aside event and represented families, businesses, ex-clubs and community organisations. The teams were Santos, Hellenic, Battswood, Cape Town Spurs, Glendene, Wynberg St. Johns, Walking for health, Gladiators, Simply the Best, Davids Family, Adams Family, Walking Football Cape Town Elders, Hammertime, Kuils River, Play sport 4 Life, Astro Paints, Schaapkraal Warriors, Federation Legends, Duncan Crowie Legends and All Star Legends. FUN FAMILY DAY Food stalls sold koesisters, lamb akhni and boerewors rolls among others. For the children a tuckshop catered to all their needs as well as fun and games, under supervision, to keep them occupied. The Fun Day was really a family day in the true sense of the word as families came out to spend the day with soccer legends. The legends who were well-known in their playing days included Duncan Crowie, Nazeem Isaacs, Michael Smith, Cassiem Mohamed and Nooroedien September. In the main match Duncan Crowie Legends took on the Walking Football Cape Town Legends in a five-a-
