The building, found at 107 Bree Street, was once used as parking fa- cility with a petrol station on the ground floor. The owner, Brian Green from Group 44, confirms that after a few obstacles, developers finally got the nod to start erecting the “upmarket building”, which is earmarked to be launched in April. “This is quite an exciting ven- ture and we feel that this building will tie in beautifully with Bree Street,” he says. According to Green, developers are aiming to build a nightclub, res- taurant, food market, office spaces and health spa. “We put lots of passion into our buildings and we are very strict on the tenants. We will rather deal with fewer tenants, than sit with a whole lot of problems,” Green ex- plains. Group 44 first laid eyes on the derelict garage in 2010, but formal permission from the City of Cape Town to renovate was only granted two years later. Developers got the go ahead to start building last month, which upset the owners, as they intended to launch the building in October last year. Green explains that after submit- ting applications with the City of Cape Town and Heritage Western Cape, the process was held up, as approvals needed to be gathered from various departments. Due to the building carrying some heritage value, this also con- tributed towards the delays. “We discovered it’s really not that easy and the process is really long and dragging. We were compliant in every sense and we did not expect to be delayed in this manner,” Green says about the the applica- tion process. He adds that developers will be keeping the art deco facade, but will be aiming to create a very different look and feel by adding a mansard – or French – roof. “We are hoping to create this glassy and airy feel to the building and we hope this will set the build- ing apart from the rest,” he says. Neighbouring business owners were relieved to hear the sounds of machinery at the site and the new development definitely brings a sense of excitement to Bree Street. Cafe owner, Faried Japhta, was especially happy to see the work commencing on the building. “It was a real eyesore. It was real- ly sad that nobody was maintaining it. You can see it is going to look smart, especially with that new roof on it,” he says. Restaurant owner Freddy Thompson is delighted to hear about the owners finally starting work on the building. He explains that for a number of years, the building was allowed to fall into a state of disrepair. “Nobody was doing anything about it and its located in such a nice spot, with restaurants oppo- site, parking nearby and most im- portantly, its neighbouring a hospi- tal. What more can you ask for?” Director for Planning and Build- ing Development Management, Cheryl Walters, confirms that an application was received in April last year and approved in August. A subsequent building plan was submitted in October and approved in December. “The application was for Council’s consent to permit ex- ternal building work in an Urban Conservation Area. It is noted that the building was to be used for shops and offices,” she says. Walters adds that in terms of the Scheme Regulations, the mainte- nance of the architectural, aesthet- ic and historical significance of the building is important. “The application in terms of the Scheme Regulations required con- sultation with the ward councillor and local ratepayers association as well as internal circulation to the relevant City departments,” she says.

ONE MAN is taking to the skies whileholding onto 200 helium balloons and atthe mercy of the wind in a daring flightacross shark-infestedwater –all for chari-ty.

Matt Silver-Valance, South African bornbut now living in the UK, will be doing theRobben Island Balloon Run to raise funds forthe Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital.

His innovative – and very dangerous – fun-draising initiative will see him reachingheights of 600m above sea level (the equiva-lent of a 50-storey building) while strapped tothe helium balloons as he drifts over the At-lantic Ocean from the island to the mainland– all at the mercy of Cape Town’s wind.Silver-Valance’s daredevil stunt, which is

planned for April, will aim to raise R10m forthe building of a Nelson Mandela Children’sHospital at the Wits University campus.“It’s really the public all over the world

who are integral to this project – it’s the pub-licwhowill be donating funds to thehospital.The Balloon Run is just the vehicle to facili-tate those funds going directly to this deserv-ing cause,” he says.This is a cause close to his heart and a pas-

sion born out of his experience as a volunteerparamedic in the Western Cape AmbulanceService in 1999/2000.Robben Island Museum CEO Sibongiseni

Mkhize says he is optimistic about the suc-cess of the initiative. “I think it’s a very am-bitious project, but I think it is achievable.The history of Robben Island has shown usthat nothing is too difficult – as long as peoplework together, have a common goal and de-termination to succeed.”Mkhize says the Balloon Run “represents

that kind of spirit. A paediatric hospitalwould be the realisation of the dreams of alot of people”.Silver-Valance will be one of just 13 people

in the world who have attempted the feat ofcluster-ballooning, as it is known amongadrenaline junkies.“Not all those attempts have been success-

ful – two of those people have perished in theprocess, so the stakes could not be higher onthis daring stunt.”During the flight, he will be strapped to a

paragliding harness, which will be attachedto about 200 four-foot diameter helium-inflat-

ed balloons. His ascent and descent will becontrolled by jettisoning ballast or deflatinga balloon.Extensive and careful technical planning

has gone into ensuring a smooth flight. To en-sure his safety, Silver-Valance has an inter-nationally experienced team assisting himevery step of the way.Mike Howard, the flight operationsmanag-

er for the Balloon Run, is a commercial pilotand Guinness World Record holder for per-forming the highest cluster-ballooning flightat an astounding 19 000 feet.Support crew on the daywill include a boat

crew, medics, as well as 10 open water swim-mers who will start swimming from RobbenIsland three hours before the flight to catchhim when he lands on the mainland.International rugby players have joined in

their support of the initiative. Jean de Vil-liers, captain of the South African rugbyteam,has donated his rugby jersey to thecause, as did theNewZealand andAustralianrugby captions. These jerseys, which includethe Springbok captain’s inaugural jerseyfromtheRugbyChampionship,will be raffledoff to raise funds. Donations can be made byvisiting www.balloonrun.com.

PROMENADE users in Sea Pointwill be diverted onto the neigh-bouring grass banks for a shortperiod of time due to constructionhaving finally kicked off on thesea wall.

TheR30mproject is expected toun-fold over the next five years in vari-ous phases, with Phase 1 currentlyunderway and running from ThreeAnchor Bay through to MouillePoint.Ward councillor Beverley Schafer

is excited about the project, sayingthat the “work ismuchneeded on thewall”.“That wall has taken some weath-

ering over the years and the Cityneeded to step in to get this projectunderway. We have to rehabilitatethe sea wall because of the safety as-pects,” she says.The project includes strengthen-

ing the sea wall, repaving the walk-way on the promenade and also con-

structing a low splash wall to pre-ventwater from landing on the edgesof the grass bank.When People’s Post arrived at the

site on Friday, around 60 metreswere already excavated and largepieces of granitewerebeing removedfrom the sea wall.It is understood that the granite

will be used in the construction ofthe splash wall.“All pedestrians using the prome-

nade have been diverted onto thegrass bank, as the sections of thepromenade will be closed off for con-struction purposes,” Schafer says.Promenade users did not mind be-

ing diverted, butwere rather excitedto the see work unfolding.Regular jogger Nancy Rijkaard ex-

plains the importance of maintain-ing sea wall, which she believes is a“beautiful attraction”.“Sea Point attracts large crowds

every single day of the year and weas the residents understand the im-portance of this rehabilitation proc-ess. I don’t think anybody will mind

being diverted off the paved prome-nade, because in the endwhen all thework is complete, everything thatwas done becomes beneficial to thewhole community,” Rijkaard says.Another Sea Point resident and

building contractor, Allistair Abra-hams, has been living in the area fornearly 40 years and cannot recall see-ing the wall being attended to like itis now.He explains thatwhen the tides get

rough, the waves come crashing upover onto the promenade pave wayand understands why the wall need-ed to be rehabilitated.“Imagine having a scenario where

that wall caves in while somebody isrunning there. That could happen ifthe City neglects the wall, becausethe water can weaken it,” he says.“This should have happened a

year ago already, but as long as theupgrade is being done, we don’t haveto be concerned about the wall anylonger.”

WHATwas supposed to be a lovely familypicnic on Sea Point Promenade turned in-to a nightmare for a Green Point mother.

Ball games are forbidden on Sea PointPromenade, with adequate signage in placewarning all users.But earlier this month, a two-year-old girl

was struck in the head with a soccer ball,causing “mild concussion” and leaving herbed-ridden for a week.Tiffany vanHalstead fromGreen Point, the

angry mother of two-year-old Jessica, ex-plains that the signage clearly states that ballgames are banned.

However, a few “chance takers” are be-lieved to be ignoring the rules, causing theinjury to her daughter.“I had a few alarm bells ringing when I saw

these boys playing on the grass. It was not asoccer match as they were kicking the ball toeach other over a distance. I knew there wasa chance that ball could be misdirected butwe carried on, hoping they would respect thefact that there are others using the prome-nade,” Van Halstead says.After the incident, she attempted to track

down Law Enforcement or Metro Police offi-cials, but was unsuccessful and focused ongetting her daughter to the closest hospital.“The boys apologised, but were more fo-

cused on retrieving their soccer ball, which

I eventually threw inmy car and into the rub-bish binwhenwearrived at thehospital,” shesays.The upset mother asks: “Where the these

officials when you need them?”SeaPoint residentAndre Small (64) is a reg-

ular visitor to the promenade and indicatesthat “ball games have not stopped”.“I sit on my balcony every day and, espe-

cially during the evenings, these guys arriveand play soccer or touch rugby on the lawn.There is one slight difference though: they donot wear the studded boots any longer, sothey respect the grass more than the peoplearound them,” he says.Small witnessed the incident and “always

knew it was coming”.

“Seeing that little girl in such pain in anarea that is supposed to provide relaxationand happiness was just sad. These peoplemust really pull up their socks and find betterplaces to play these ball games,” he says.Ward councillor Beverley Schafer says on-

ly formalised games are prohibited on thepromenade.She adds that Law Enforcement officers

regularly patrol the promenade but urges thepublic to adhere to the signage.“There is ample place on the shared fields

for informal kick-about ball games as well asnext door to the Virgin Active gym in theGreen Point Park,” she says.According to the City, informal games are

allowed on the grass, which includes parentsplaying with their children with soft balls.However, these games should not pose athreat to other promenade users. People play-ing these informal games are prohibited fromwearing shoes with spikes that could damagethe grass.Acting Executive Director for Safety and

Security, Chief Wayne le Roux, explains thatball games on the promenade has “not comeup as a serious issue”, but action is takenwhere necessary.He adds that if promenade users are found

to be contravening the law, they could befined R300.“Ball games along the promenade have not

come up as a serious problem and the LawEnforcement officers in thearea seldom, if ev-er, receive complaints in this regard,” hesays.The public can report incidents to the safe-

ty kiosk on the promenade, visit the securitycaravan opposite the SABCbuilding onweek-ends or contact the Sea Point Law Enforce-ment Office on 0 (021) 439 4475 or 0 (021) 5961999.

A BLIND woman was rescued from aburning house in Bo-Kaap.

Two rooms were destroyed at the house onthe corner of Van der Meulen and Walestreets on Wednesday at about 14:00.

Tasneem Samuels (23) says her blind sis-ter, Rushaan Ockards (34), was asleep in herroom when the fire started.

Samuels says Osama du Toit, a familyfriend, saved her sister’s life.

He carried her out of the burning room.She was treated for smoke inhalation and

minor burns at the New Somerset Hospital

but has since been released.She is currently staying with family

friends in the area.Thanks to the assistance of helpful neigh-

bours, the fire didn’t spread as they dousedthe flames with hosepipes and buckets of wa-ter.

Meanwhile, Fatima Burns, her four chil-dren, mother and brother were also lefthomeless after their home in Yusuf Drivecaught alight on Thursday morning.

Theo Layne, the spokesperson for theCity’s Fire Services, says the cause of the fireis still unknown.

Fynbos under the spotlight

VIOLENT protests over service deliveryhave in recent months marred the politi-cal landscape.

People’s Post interns Tarren-Lee Habel-gaarn and Luzuko Zini took to the streets andasked readers if the violence is justified or itis a sign of desperation.

PeacePeace vsvsprotestsprotests

ONON POINT:POINT: Steve Fraser says while he doesn’tcondone violence, when people are hopelessthey get desperate. “If they can’t get their pointacross what other option do they have? Some­thing needs to be done, but it all boils down toeducation of what is right and wrong.”

UNAUNACCEPTCCEPTABLE:ABLE: Stirling Damain­Harris saysviolence is never justified. He feels people pro­test when they’ve lost patience. At that point,he says, there is no other way but violence. “Ifeel particularly sorry for the farmworkerswhowork in rain and sun, but get R50.”

NO VIOLENCE:NO VIOLENCE: Thelma Harris says violence isparticularly frustrating when protesters don’tthink of the inconvenience caused to others.“If you take the farm workers: when they goback to work the property is broken. It’s unfairtowards themselves and the farmers.”

ELECTELECT LEADERS:LEADERS: Taariq Samuels says: “That’stheir way of getting what they want, but it doesnot always go their way. Protesters shouldelect someone to speak on their behalf to thepeople, company or government they have is­sues with so that things can be resolved.”

NOTNOT IDEAL:IDEAL: Kay­Leigh Meistre believes pro­testing is a way for protesters to get attention,but believes violence is not the way. “Protest­ers need to speak up and voice their concernsinstead of being violent. Violence has neversolved anything but only makes things worse.”

UNJUST:UNJUST: Andiswa Sam says violence is not theway as it only makes things worse. “Violenceis not a sign of desperation, but an opportunity(for some people) to ruin what has alreadybeen done for them. The only way to go forwardis to address their issues in a civilised way.”

OTHEROTHER MEANS:MEANS: Zach Simpson believes thereare other ways of dealing with the protesters’concerns. “The violence may be a sign of des­peration, but there is no need for it. They shoulduse peaceful methods of protest that haveserved this and other countries well.”

ANYONEwishing to learn sign language canfind out more from June Bothma.

She will be offering a 15-week fun-filledcourse in sign language.

TAURIQ HASSEN

THEAfricanBrothers Football Acade-my (ABFA) faces a grim future as af-fected residents continue to stomptheir feet and object against the activi-ties at the Gardens five-a-side soccerfacility.

People’s Post focused on the academyand their plight to save the facility fromclosing down after the City of Cape Townannounced that ABFA was in contraven-tion of the City’s Zoning Scheme Regula-tions and accused ABFA from using theproperty unlawfully (“Soccer academy fo-cuses on goal”, People’s Post, 22 January).

Andre Rabie from the Green Oaks BodyCorporate, which is located behind the fa-cility, claims that the concept sold to theCity and neighbours, where street chil-dren would be trained or developed, hasnot materialised.

“I don’t think that anybody had a prob-lem with that concept. I know I didn’t, butI have not seen any training or develop-ment of ‘street children’ in over twoyears,” he says.

Rabie continues that at “no time” hashewitnessedmore than 20 children on theplaying fields at once, other than when amatch is scheduled between two clubs orschools.

“The only facilities that are currentlyfully utilised are the five-a-side soccercourts, which are being rented out toteams, clubs and corporates at an hourlyfee, which constitutes running a businesson the school’s property,” Rabie says.

He claims he has documentation in hispossession which proves that ABFA is op-erating illegally and are intentionally ig-noring requests by a lawyer to remove thecatch nets erected around the soccer facil-ity.

Although Rabie agrees that ABFA hascontributed towards upgrading the facili-ty and also confirms that before ABFA setup camp the area was plagued with crimeand vagrants, the owners of ABFA stilldid not have the required permission torun the facility from the property.

“We will not stop until justice has beenserved and we have asked the ownerssince the beginning to supply us withwritten permission granted to them bythe City. We were told it was a verbal ap-proval,” Rabie explains.

SeaPoint residentBeverleyMayplayed

a crucial role in closing down the five-a-side facility operating from Sea PointHigh School.

She says: “I fully understand what theresident must be going through, becausewe had the exact same problems here inSea Point, but we acted on it.”

May confirms that owners of the facili-ty in Sea Point were taken to the CapeHigh Court and the Supreme Court of Ap-peal in Bloemfontein, where residentswalked away as winners of the case.

Sea Point residents also faced problemswith noise, which included balls hittingthe sideboards continuously, whistles,players screaming at each other and carsrevving in the parking late at night.

“We understand their vision, but youstill have to maintain the law,” May says.People’s Post met with the co-founder,

coach, manager and director of ABFA,Craig Hepburn, where copies of the leaseagreement were on show.

“Wewere totally oblivious to the zoningrights at the time, but when we found out,we immediately applied to the City,” Hep-burn says.

He could not understand why residentswere trying so hard to close down ABFA,especially when he claims that no resi-dents had taken the time out to visit thefacility.

“Nobody has contributed a cent to-wards this facility andnobody ever comesto check out what we do, yet, we are facedwith these complaints. I am left to thinkabout the children if this facility doesclose down,” he says.

Hepburn confirms that his attorneys,Matthew Walton and Associates, will beopposing the City’s decision next month.

“We want to offer a facility that willhelp football to grow in this country andall we’ve ever wanted to do was work withthe City.

“ABFA was built for the upliftment ofthe city, but only we can see that and eve-rybody else is just working hard at want-ing to close us down,” he says.

MaycoCommitteemember forEconom-ic, Environmental and Spatial Planning,Belinda Walker, says that concernsraised by the community regarding thecontravention of zoning regulations can-not be ignored. “The City is not againstschools being used for activities otherthan education, provided the requiredpermissions are obtained from the land-lord and they comply with the required

legislation, including the bylaws ofthe City,” she says.

Walker confirms that the Citywould like to resolve the matter withABFA, but it should be done “legallyand fairly for all role players”.

Catch-22CIVIL society places certain expectations up-on a country’s legal system.So it is expected, for instance, that people

whom the courts find guilty end up in prison.There, it is hoped, offenders will serve the

required time for having been found guilty ofwhichever crime.Perhaps it is also hoped that they would

make amends and perhaps become reconcili-atory towards those whom they’ve offended.Many prisoners say they’ve found religionwhile in prison. If prison is hoped to be a cor-rective facility, what then can be said forcrimes taking place in prison?Fightswhichbrokeout inPollsmoorPrison

last week are reportedly as a result of at-tempts to control illegal itemswhichwere be-ing smuggled into the facility.A daily newspaper report indicates 10 in-

mateswere injured in two separate battles be-tween rival gangs. Five inmates were takento hospitals. The items in question are drugsand cellphones.While people on the “outside”may take cellphones for granted, drugs in aprison is understandably a dangerous combi-nation. Correctional Services regional com-missioner Delekile Klaas has reportedly toldthe media they were investigating whetherofficials could be working with inmates.Two rival gangs have are said to have been

separated,while gang leaders have been iden-tified and placed in another area.Many questions can be asked as to whether

prisons really serve a purpose. But in the ab-sence of any other recourse, correctional fa-cilities remain the only answer as to what todo with offenders and those who break thelaw. Research indicates many offenders, un-fortunately, return to prison. Some, becausethey see little way out than to survive by com-mitting crime. Others because their attemptsat reintegration into society are foiled as a re-sult of the mark against their name.Until we’ve walked a mile in a prisoner’s

shoes, who is to know? Perhaps crime neversleeps. Not even in prison.

StrStrikiking sing shouldhouldbe last resortbe last resortTHE wish has come true for whom-ever said: “Make the Western Capeungovernable”.I agree with and support the soli-

darity of the farm workers strikingfor a better wage, but I disagreewith burning farms, looting shopsand stoning cars on the N1.I served as a loyal shop steward

for the National Union of TextileWorkers.If we had to strike and down tools

for everywage negotiation the com-pany would have been forced toclose down and let over 2 000 work-ers go. What did we do differently?We had good union leaders who al-ways thought of the workers first.(There were) good and successfulnegotiations that never tarnishedthe relationship (between) shopstewards and the union, employersand employees.This strike action could turn out

to be successful, but the damagedone to the economy is irreversible.I blame the union who, togetherwith the farmworker leaders, ill ad-vised their members.Union leaders should have made

their intentions known before en-gaging in illegal industrial action.Theworkers could be out of pock-

et for a long timeuntil – and if – theydo come to an agreement on a wagesettlement backdated to the firstday of absence.The saddest part is that union

leaders never suffer loss of pay inany strike. I am not saying not tostrike, but that should be the last re-sort if negotiations fail and amica-ble solutions cannot remedy theproblem.ARTHUR PILLAY

Call for help is quietenedI’MSHOCKEDbecause today I sawone of theFNB adverts under the heading “You canhelp”.In it, KellyBaloyi, a 17-year-old fromSowe-

to, eloquently pinpoints not only the issuesfacing ournation, but also her idea for a solu-tion.She is not calling for student boycotts, pro-

test marches or strikes.She’s not calling for burning of municipal

buildings, looting of shops or destruction ofschools. She’s not calling for barricadingroads, burning tyres or the stoning of the po-lice.She’s not singing songs that call for a ma-chine gun or the destruction of white farm-ers. She is simply asking for people to helpeach other.She says: “When you help someone, you

lift them up.When you lift them up, they can

help other people, too.”So why am I shocked? I am shocked be-

cause FNB has bowed to pressure from theANC and the SACP and has now withdrawnthe advert. These two political parties be-lieve that this advert amounts to treason andundermines the government. This approachis reminiscent of the past apartheid govern-ment’s approach to those who opposed theirviews.No doubt FNB has realised that it needs to

heed (president) Jacob Zuma’s call, where hestated: “Business that support the ANC willprosper.”Perhaps they should rather look at some

of the statementsmade by (former president)NelsonMandela,who said: “Youwill achievemore in this world through acts of mercythan you will through acts of retribution.”ROGER WOOD

ARE YOU a talented musician and look-ing for a chance tohit the stage?ThenMa-rika’s Restaurant is looking for you.

The eatery, situated on the corner of Vre-dehoek and Buitenkant streets, will be hav-ing open mic jam sessions from Saturday 2February.Frank Resnik, a co-owner of the restau-

rant, says anyone is welcome to take part inthe sessions.“We have six acts who have made reserva-

tions. People should contact us for perform-ing or booking a table before 31 January,” hesays.Resnik is the man behind the Forever

YoungAmateurMusicCompetition and saysthe sessions are aimed unearthing local tal-ent.“Unlike the competition which is strictly

for over 40s only, these sessions are open toall age groups. This is a great opportunity foramateur musicians to try things out and tolearn to be comfortable giving live perform-ances as opposed to only playing at home forfriends and family,” he says.“It would be great to see people who have

started playing live atMarika’s becoming fu-ture Forever Young Amateur Music Compe-

tition contestants.”The restaurant can accommodate 40 to 50

people and Resnik says booking early is es-sential.“If the weather is kind to us we are able

to accommodate almost double this numberby opening our folding doors andmakinguseof our balcony,” he says.“Anyone wishing to participate must

phone and tell us what their act consists of.”Resnik says the sessions are part of a se-

Water wonder swims his way to the topLIAM MOSES

A RONDEBOSCHmatriculant hasproved himself asone of the bestyoung swimmers inthe country after re-turning from an in-ternational compe-tition with threemedals around hisneck.

Craig Emslieclaimed silver inthe 50m and 100mbreaststroke eventsand won gold andhelped break an Af-rican record in the4x50m relay at theZone VI YouthGames in Zambia.

Emslie sayswhilehe enjoyed winningthemedals, the hon-our of representing South Africa was thehighlight of the games.

“It’s amazing. All the international meetsare very cool. The TV cameras are there andyou get support from the crowd,” the Ronde-bosch Boys’ High School pupil says.

“At the opening ceremony you feel soproud to be a South African. The flag raisingceremonywas the best part; it wasmuch bet-ter than getting the medals.”

The tournament was hosted in Lusaka inDecember and featured athletes from all thecountries in southern Africa, including Bot-swana,Angola,Mozambique andZimbabwe.

It featured swimming, athletics, football,basketball, judo and tennis competitions andsaw SA finish at the top of the medal stand-ings with 67 gold, 46 silver and 19 bronzemedals. Emslie also won gold in the 50mbreaststroke at the last five consecutive Jun-ior National Championships and is current-ly training for the Senior Nationals, whichtake place in April.

The 18-year-old has been swimming fromthe age of eight, but says he only started tak-ing the sport seriously recently. He aims tomake swimming his career and has set his

sights on the 2016 Olympic Games.“The team I swim for is the High Perform-

ance Team at UWC Swimming Club, ear-marked for the 2016 Olympics,” says Emslie.

“Our long-term goal is working towardsthat, while my short-term goal is the Com-monwealth Games, coming up in two years.There is also the Junior World Champion-ships at the end of the year,which I amwork-ing towards. We also have Nationals inApril. Ultimately it’s just building up andclimbing the ladder.”

His current regimen in the High Perform-ance Squad sees him train at least 10 timesa week – twice on some days – and swimaround 12km a day, six times a week.

Emslie says although the training istough, he is prepared to put his “head down”and work for his goals.

“There is a saying that ‘hard work beatstalent if talent doesn’t work hard’. You canhave all the talent, but if you don’tworkhardyou won’t get there,” he says.

“Some people don’t understand the train-ing you go through. It takes toll on your bodyand you just need to push through. Themen-tal ability is what gets you on top.”

Dramatic conditionsin Seaforth contestA TOTAL of 75 paddlers were tested tocapacity as they set off from SeaforthBeach, Simon’s Town, in theBest4 Surf-ski race on Sunday.

They had to negotiate tricky rocks, reefsand kelp, and into the wind and swell forthe first lap of the 12km race.

Constant concentration was required tonavigate the upwind section to the firstturnmark as a wrong routing could quick-ly result in a swim over a shallow reef, asa few paddlers found out.

The downwind section was fast pacedand it was here that experience and somerisk takinghelpedmakeupa fewpositions.

Thenine races in the season’sBest4 Surf-ski Series have been characterised by aquality field of women paddlers.

Sunday’s race was no different with 20women taking to the water to race.

It was extremely close racing in the frontend with Donia Kamstra narrowly edgingout Kim vanGysenmeremetres before theline. Right behind them was Bianca Bea-vitt who was not giving the women behindor ahead of her any quarter to rest.

The top three women were separated byonly 30 seconds.

The men’s race was equally exciting.Early on it seemed that Tom Schilperoorthad sealed yet another victory, but juniorpaddler Kenny Rice reeled him on the sec-ond lap and they were soon joined by Si-mon van Gysen.

The race was on again.Schilperoort, however, skillfully pulled

onto a few successive swells leavingKennyto battle Van Gysen for second place.

In the endRice took the second place andVan Gysen third.

The last race andprizegiving in theBest4Summer Surfski Series will be on Sunday3 February at Clifton 4th beach at 9:00.

Amateurs, novices and Stand Up Pad-dlers are invited to paddlewith three of theworld’s top five surfskiers including VanGysen (Euro Championship title holder)and currentworld championDawidMockeand current SAWoman’s Champion NikkiMocke.

The Epic Kayaks GlenMcGregor Finale,as the race is known, is the final race ina series of 10 races that saw enthusiasts en-joying some of the best paddling at CapeTown’s finest beaches.

The course is a two-lap route aroundFisherman’s and Barker’s Rocks (weatherdependent) with the day’s proceedings andseries prizegiving happening at the CliftonLifesaving Club.

Cape Town series coordinator NikkiMocke says: “The series has been a phe-nomenal success. It’s not just for the pro-fessionals. It’s a greatway for anyone to getfitwhilehaving funonourbeautiful beach-es across the Peninsula. We run the seriesto be able to enjoy Cape Town’s glorioussummer days. Surfski and ocean paddlingis an adventure-driven sport and it’s allabout getting out into the ocean whereverand whenever you can.”

SOUTH AFRICAN women’s hockeystalward Pietie Coetzee scored twogoals to help Investec South Africa toa 2-0 win over Austria in their finalWorldLeagueround twomatchatHart-leyvale Stadium on Sunday.

SA went through to the World Leaguesemi-finals on Saturday when they beatAzerbaijan 7-0 and Sunday’s match had nobearing on that outcome.However, the host team still played to

win and the result was ensured by two siz-zling drag-flick penalty corners fromworld record goal scorer Coetzee.The first goal came in the 10th minute

after BernieCoston’s pace down the right won South

Africa their first penalty corner and Co-etzee rifled a flat astro-burner into the bot-tom of the backboard.Sixminutes later itwasShelleyRussell’s

turn to use her pace and stick-ball controlat high speed to outflank her would-betackler and set up SA’s second penalty cor-ner.Coetzee aimed for the top shelf this time

and beat Austrian goalkeeper Jasmin An-derle with ease.The double took Coetzee’s international

tally to 258 goals in 258 test matches.Although SA dominated the rest of the

match, further successful strikes didn’tmaterialise.South Africa’s pace on attack was one of

the most impressive aspects of their play,and forwards Russell, Coston and SuletteDamons were just three of the frontrun-ners who burned their markers away.The second team to qualify for theWorld

League semi-finals were Belgium, whobeat Azerbaijan 1-0 on Sunday.Fixtures for the third round will be an-

nounced when all second round fixturesare completed in March.The women in green and gold now focus

their attention on the prestigious InvestecChallenge, which also involves worldnumber one and 2012 Olympic gold medal-lists Holland, as well as England and Aus-tralia.The Investec Challenge kicks-off at Hart-

leyvale Stadium in Observatory on Mon-day 4 February.It culminates in the medal matches on

Sunday 10 February.
