LOTUS RIVER
Clinic building may openCHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
The Lotus River Clinic might be re-opened or used as an alternative spaceonce an assessment has been done of
the currently vacant building.People’s Post previously reported that the
clinic shut its doors in March last year(“Cutting off dead weight”, Thursday 14 Au-gust 2014), three years ahead of plan.
Benedicta van Minnen, City of CapeTown’s then mayoral committee member forhealth, said at the time the clinic “just doesnot have the capacity to render a service tothe community any longer.
“It has been vandalised too many timesand the operating costs incurred are just toomuch.”
Another factor which added to the prema-ture closure of the clinic was gang violencethat happened in close vicinity of the facili-ty.
Clinical services then moved to the KlipRoad Clinic which is situated just under 2kmaway. The relocation, including opening asatellite clinic in Pelican Park, cost the Cityjust under R200 000.
Siyabulela Mamkeli, current mayoralcommittee member for health, now says theold Lotus River Clinic building will be as-sessed.
“Arrangements have been made for an as-sessment of the building to establish itsstructural integrity as it is an old, temporaryprefabricated structure. The future of thebuilding will be determined based on theoutcome of the structural assessment andcurrent community engagements that areunderway,” Mamkeli explains.
According to Mamkeli, it would cost theCity just over R100 000 to open and re-use thefacility.
“The associated costs would be in the re-gion of R115 000, excluding any physical se-curity presence and security ‘hardening’measures. A definite cost will depend on thestructural assessment outcome,” he says.
In comparison to the 80 clients a dayserved currently at Klip Road Clinic, Mam-keli says the Lotus River Clinic used to servea daily average of 72 patients a day.
Asked whether there are alternative us-age options for the vacant prefabricatedbuilding, Mamkeli says: “The future of thebuilding will be determined based on the
outcome of the structural assessment andcurrent community engagement”.
The building has been standing vacantsince it closed last year but safety measuresare in place, he adds.
“Security guards are stationed at thebuilding on a 24-hour basis, seven days aweek.”
However, even with security at the prem-ises, Mamkeli says security guards at the fa-cility have been victims of crime.
“In the most recent incident, securityguards were tied up and threatened at gun-point.”
Mamkeli says these types of incidents will
be taken into consideration should the facili-ty be repaired.
“Should the facility be reopened for use se-curity measures would have to be consid-ered. This will include security guards sta-tioned at the premises on a 24-hour basis,seven days a week at a monthly cost of justunder R37 000. We will also have to considersecuring the ceiling with wire mesh at an ad-ditional cost of R64 281,” he adds.
Mamkeli says the local neighbourhoodwatch will also be roped in and mentions thepossible installation of alarm beams “at acost of around R126 000”.
At a public meeting held at the Lotus River
sport and recreation centre on Sunday,Mamkeli met with residents and ward coun-cillors to discuss the future of the building.
“I definitely understand the need for thefacility in this area and although I cannotcommit to a date by which the facility willbe opened, I want to say that if it opens bythe end of this year, I would have achievedsomething. We need to take into considera-tion the needs of the community and staff atthe clinic.”V What do you suggest the City of Cape Town usesthe building for? What are your thoughts?

LAW
Gun owners in firing lineNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
Amendments to the Firearms ControlAct may bring harsher sentences forcriminals andnew tracking systems,
but gun owners believe they are beingtreated unfairly.The amendment bill proposes a mini-
mum sentence for crimes committed witha firearm aswell as a new tracking systemfor gunsby rolling out theuse ofmicrodotsand ballistic sampling.Gun Free South Africa spokesperson
Claire Taylor believes the new bill will ad-dress the use and misuse of guns by thepolice.The amendments propose increased
oversight and responsibility by policecommand structures for the use and mis-use of firearms by officers. They also spellout the duties of designated firearms offi-cers, who are specifically appointed policeofficers at station level responsible formanaging firearms.Ballistic sampling andmicrodotswill be
used on all guns held by official institu-tions, including the police.John Welch, spokesperson of the South
African Gunowners’ Association, says thenew tracking system is impractical andhas “huge financial and security implica-tions”.“We are currently in discussions with
experts in this technology and, unless weare ensured that these processes willachieve the intended objective, we shalloppose them.“We are of the view that these additional
security measures only need to apply tothe police and other state departmentssince more firearms are probably lost orstolen from these officials than from pri-
vate license holders,” he says.Quarterly reports will also be submitted
to the minister of police on the loss andtheft of police weapons.The amendments will go a long way in
preventing the leak of firearms from thelegal to the illegal pool, says Taylor.“The police annual reports show that al-
most 350 000 firearmswere reported as lostor stolen by civilians and police between1994 and 2014.“This is an average of 17 500 guns each
year or 48 guns every day over the past 20years,” she says.Since the Firearms Control Act was im-
plemented, gundeaths in the countryhavesteadily declined, Tay-lor believes.“Nevertheless, data
shows that 18 peopleare shot and killed ev-ery day. While 18 a dayis very high, indica-tions are that gundeaths and injurieshave been increasingsince 2011; we believethis is because of poorimplementation of theact,” she says.The bill will also see tighter controls for
gun owners.The amendmentswill shiftmore respon-
sibility to gun owners to demonstratetheir “fit and proper” status and to haveto continue to do so while owning agun.“The current Firearms Control Act al-
ready includes this shift, whereas underthe previous gun law – the Arms and Am-munition Act, the state was required toprove the person was not fit. This princi-ple is deepened andwidened in the amend-
ment,” Taylor explains.Taylor adds that between 2001 and 2014,
eight times as many guns were lost byor stolen from civilians than police offi-cers.“The most recent figures show that in
2013/14 civilians reported the loss or theftof 18 guns per day and police two guns aday,” she says.Welch objects to the “heavy burden on
law-abiding firearm owners” the amend-ments create.“Some firearm owners might find the
new provisions impractical andfinancially too cumbersome and then de-cide to rather not comply, hence becoming
criminal.“This must not
happen,” he says.The association
promotes the lawful,safe and responsiblepossession and use offirearms by peoplewho are competent topossess them, Welchsays.“We support all
reasonable measuresto rid society of crime and to make societya safer place for all to live in and to enjoytheir freedom, rights and privileges.“Freedom, however, comes at a price
and often one needs to measure the priceof freedom against safety,” he says.The organisation believes that people
must be free to decide what hobbies orsport to participate in, Welch says.“This includes the right to choose
whether or not they wish to lawfullypossess firearms, provided they live ahealthy lifestyle and do not do crime,” hesays.
An average of 17 500 gunsa year – or 48 guns a day
– were reported stolenover the past 20 years

The graveyard grounds at Klip RoadCemetery will soon be expanded tomake space for many more burials.
After realising a need for more burialspace at the cemetery, the City of Cape Townwill commence work at the site in the “nexttwo weeks”.BelindaWalker,mayoral committeemem-ber for community services and special pro-jects, says the City parks department identi-fied the need for the expansion.“Klip Road Cemetery serves the greatersouthern suburbs and Cape Flats area asthere is a shortage of vacant burial space inmany of the existing cemeteries. This in-cludes Muizenberg and Ottery cemeteries,”Walker says.Sheadds thePlumsteadCemeteryalsohadto be expanded after the same need was real-ised there.“At thePlumsteadCemetery old pathwaysare being converted into burial space to keepup with demand for burying. Staff are pro-moting the option of reopening for secondburials in the existing private graves,” sheadds.Walker says the option for completely newburial grounds in the southern suburbs can-not be offered at the moment.“There are no opportunities for new ceme-tery development in the southern suburbs.An investigation into identified sites re-vealed that they were unsuitable for a num-ber of reasons,” she says.These reasons include land not being con-ducive for the development of burialgrounds.“Burial grounds cannot be developed dueto a high water table, if the land was subject
to land claims and in case of poor soil condi-tions as a result of illegal dumping. Theseare contributing factors towhy there cannotbe new burial grounds developed in thesouthern suburbs.”Walker adds the original cemetery was al-ready filled during 2007 except for some re-served family plots. “The Klip West exten-sion (phase 1) was approved and has been inuse since 2009 for burials. However, this ex-tension is now at 95% capacity. The averagenumber of burials at Klip Cemetery is in ex-cess of 100 burials per month,” Walker ex-plains.A total of 6920 new graves will be addedat the site.“A total of 3.46 hectares will be used forburial blocks which equates to 6920 graves.Based on the current demand, if each graveis only used once, this will accommodate atleast another 10 years of burial,” Walkeradds.The extension at Klip Road Cemetery willcost R3m to complete, she says.Included in the extension will be roadsthat will be developed and provide for atleast another 10 years.Asked how the proposal for a waste drop-off facility will impact on the extension atKlip Road Cemetery, Ernest Sonnenberg,mayoral committee member for utility ser-vices, says it will have “minimal impact”.“The proposal to establish a drop-off sitenorth of the current Klip Road Cemetery(the proposed Prince George Drive drop-offsite) will have aminimal impact on the cem-etery extension. Should authorisation begranted for the drop-off site, the develop-ment will take place on the opposite side ofthe existing cemetery,” Sonnenberg says.V What are your thoughts?

GRADE 1 TO 3
Help for parents in school workCHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
Parents and guardians of children fromGrade 1 toGrade 3 can bemore positiveabout helping their children with
school work.Thanks to the Reading Room in Ottery,
parents now have a support base where theycan equip themselves with the basic skillsto enhance the learning experience of theirfoundation-phase children.Founded and run by Amanda Sickle, a
former teacher, the Reading Room waslaunched during 2012.“What is offered at the facility is a space
where children and parents can come andlearn in a conducive environment. I assistparents in motivating their children andhelping parents understand the academicneeds of their children,” Sickle says.She has introduced a unique way of learn-
ing to parents and children who visit theReading Room and says the implementationthereof will contribute to favourable results
at school.“I have activities for all parents who at-
tend the sessions during the week. It helpsthemunderstand the syllabus their childrenare currently at,” Sickle says.She adds the greatest obstacle for parents
and guardians is the changing syllabus andhow they should approach learning withtheir children.“If parents take at least 10 minutes during
the day to assist their child with homework,they can achieve desirable results. Whenthey come to the Reading Room, we justequip themwith the ‘how to’ so they can im-plement it at home,” she explains.Sickle says when parents and guardians
visit the centre, they are encouraged tothink like their children who are in Grade1 to Grade 3.“This ensures that parents best under-
stand at what pace their children are learn-ing. Parents are often hasty when they helptheir children with their homework but thisprogramme tackles that,” she explains.Sickle adds children who are currently in
the foundation phase also visit her centre onweekends for two-hour reading sessions.“The centre is conducive to a learning en-
vironment and we have volunteers thatcome in every week to assist children intheir problem areas. Both volunteers andchildren enjoy their time here because it isa fun space where they can learn.”She adds they always encourage positivity
during their sessions.“We focus more on what the children do
right when they do their homework or visitthe centre. This in turn will boost their con-fidence. Children get lost when they feel de-spondent,” she says.Sickle says during the reading sessions on
Saturdays, children have one-on-one ses-sions with volunteers at the centre.
“They are placed with the same volunteerevery week so that a relationship is built be-tween both parties. Children feel more com-fortable when they are placed with the sameperson everyweek and our volunteers at thesame time get to know the development pha-ses of each child and can assist at their pace.It’s like a tailor-made programme for eachchild,” she adds.Sickle has encouraged parents to make
use of the opportunity to visit the centre anduse the programme.“We also always need volunteers at the
centre to assist the children who come hereon the weekend.”V Would you like to know more about the ReadingRoom? Email Amanda at [email protected].

Safety plan on trackCHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
The Parkwood Community Forum is ex-cited to hear that a container is to bemade available free of charge for its
safety plan for the area.The good news was given at a meeting
held on Wednesday last week that was at-tended by local religious leaders, NGOs,NPOs, Grassy Park police and the localward councillor.
Ward councillor Melanie Arendse an-nounced a container would be supplied bythe City of Cape Town.
“I am pleased to say we have got a contain-er for the purposes of safety and security inParkwood. We had to go through a processwhere I had to get permission for this butafter speaking to the property managementand housing departments, I was given thenecessary permission,” Arendse says.
Those present at the meeting receivedthis news with cheers and clapping.
However, Arendse says there are still afew aspects to be discussed before the con-tainer is brought to the community.
“The City agreed to the container but itunfortunately does not have a crane for usto use free of charge. The City will chargeus for it and therefore we are looking at afew companies who will assist us in gettingthis container transported,” Arendse ex-plained.
Forum chairperson Paul Phillips says heis “happy we are moving in the right direc-tion”.
“We have to give credit where credit isdue. We asked Arendse to come on boardand she made good on that and we are verygrateful for this,” Phillips said.
At the meeting Phillips challengedGrassy Park police, which was representedby station commander Colonel Shawn vanWyk and Lieutenant-Colonel Christiaan
Esau, about a lack of service delivery in thearea.
“We want our area to be safe again butthat is just not happening and we need ourpolice to help us rectify this situation. Wewant the community of Parkwood to havea sector of its own so that manpower andresources can be invested in this communi-ty specifically,” he said.
Phillips also tackled the police for thelack of communication between themselvesand the community.
“We need our police to focus on our needsas well. I have come to realise that there isa culture at the police station where police-men and women treat Parkwood people asthey want. It’s as if to say we come from thatcommunity and that’s how they’ll treat us.We want this to change,” he stressed.
Grassy Park police were not present at aprevious meeting held on Wednesday 25March and Van Wyk apologised for this ab-sence.
“I was on leave at the time and did notknow about the meeting. However, I can re-assure you that it is not in my character tonot respond to meeting requests because Iknow how important it is to engage with thecommunity. I do apologise for the previousincident,” he said.
Speaking on the point regarding the con-tainer the forum requested, prior to Arend-se’s announcement, Van Wyk said they can-not give the go ahead on the initiative.
“To host a satellite station in Parkwoodwould be very difficult. Our other commu-nities are demanding the same thing and wejust do not have the manpower to have thismaterialise,” Van Wyk said.
Van Wyk however encouraged residentsto join their local neighbourhood watchesto increase law enforcement in their com-munities.V What are your thoughts? Starting with the word“Post”, SMS your views to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

PRINCESS VLEI: COMMUNITIES CONSULTED
CHEVON BOOYSEN@ChevonBooysen
After more than ten years, the Dressingthe Princess Project has finally beenput to paper. The future of the project
now lies in the hands of the Cape Town CityCouncil, who will have to decide whetherthe City would be willing to fork out themoney to make the project come to life.
The project was initiated by Kelvin Co-chrane who subsequently wrote an “exten-sive report” on the issue.
Cochrane says he worked alongside theCity of Cape Town’s caring and managingpublic open spaces (Camps) department tocreate the proposed plan for Princess Vlei.
“I am extremely excited about thisproject. I call it Lego for adults,” Cochranesays.
In an attempt to halt plans to build a mallat the heritage site, Cochrane says he wastasked to come up with an alternative forPrincess Vlei.
“And now this is finally on paper after wespoke to all residents who will be affected– from the bergie to the doctor – and our endresult is something to be excited about.”
He adds it is important to create a spacewhere people can come together and enjoythe natural environment at the vlei but alsoenjoy a “world-class tourist attraction”.
“For too long people have been excludedfrom making decisions on how open spacesshould be used in our city, especially in lesswealthy areas. With this plan it will be alink between the rich area and the CapeFlats. This is our ultimate goal,” Cochraneadds.
He says the plan with the space is to “cre-ate a botanical garden for the people of theCape Flats.”
Cochrane and his team who spearheadedthe project have come up with a concept de-
tailing a craft market village which will al-low small businesses from the area to selltheir goods in container structures.
“We took the communities’ concerns andopinions to heart and together with that wehave come up with a plan that integrates theneeds and interests of all,” Cochrane says.
He adds it is important that the soil andnatural ecosystem at the site are not nega-tively affected by any building on the site.
“The initial concern and why the mallwas boycotted at the vlei was because itwould impact on the soil. With the people’splan we have created, no concrete will beused at all. We are ultimately fusing greenspaces with urban spaces,” he explains.
“Included in the benefits of the proposedplan, various new facilities will be added atthe vlei which will be situated 30 metresfrom the water’s edge.
“We also have a management plan inplace which includes a safety aspect. It willensure safety to the patrons of this site andincludes a security system,” he says.
“The proposed plan will make optimaluse of the vlei which includes a self-sustain-ing solar power system as well as a fully self-sustaining ablution facility.
“This will definitely be a benefit becausethe space will be off the City grid,” he ex-plains.
The proposed plan would cost “anywherein the region of R88 million”, says Co-chrane.
“We are in the process of getting fundingfor this project, but it has to be presentedto the City first. We are hoping that theycome on-board with this idea.”
Cochrane concludes: “I think our biggesttake on this project was that we have a vi-sion for it. We know this is going to workand there is no reason it cannot be done.”V What are your thoughts? Starting with the word“Post”, SMS your views to 32516.

Train stations are noteasy for disabled peopleI have witnessed how Metrorail and thePassenger Rail Agency of South Africa(Prasa) do not value disabled people.I have been in the Western Cape for a
long time now and my experience isbased here.I’m not an engineer, but I can use
common sense to analyse the situation,which should apply to most of theengineers/senior officials of Prasa andMetrorail.From 2009 towards 2010 and the Soccer
World Cup Prasa and Metrorail did someserious renovations of the stations forthe occasion. This was done to impressthe tourists that were here for the WorldCup. But they forgot our own peoplewho use trains on a daily basis through-out the year.To be specific, in southern suburbs I
will mention a few train stations fromWynberg train station to Observatory.For people with disabilities it is extreme-ly difficult or even impossible to usethese stations. They are not disabled-friendly for people, especially those inwheelchairs and the blind with guidedogs, sticks and crutches.Only Claremont has a wheelchair
facility, but only for platform one. Itmeans if you want to go to platform twoit will be extremely difficult to do so. Allof the train stations I have mentionedeither have a subway or a bridge, whichis not accessible to the disabled.Currently there are a few stations that
are under construction or being re-vamped, but in my view I do not believethat Prasa or Metrorail are thinkingabout the issue I’m raising.I think it will take them some time to
realise that they are not taking peoplewith disabilities seriously and to makesure that train stations are conducivefor them so that they can use trainstations and trains. In fact, it is veryclear that they do not even take theirown employees with disability seriously,
because some of them are using trainson a daily basis.The significant question that Prasa
and Metrorail have no choice but toanswer is when they are going to dealwith such an unconducive environment.Prasa’s slogan or motto says “be moved”but in reality they are not inclusive toall customers.For the trains themselves are shoddy
because they are not user-friendly forpeople with disabilities, for evidentreasons. I’m raising this issue, becausePrasa and Metrorail are parastatals sothey have no choice but to lead byexample before we can even talk aboutother means of transport.Maybe I should give them the benefit
of the doubt for the new trains that aregoing to be launching next year, 2016 or2017.Lastly, I saw one or two train stations
with a toilet for people with disability.This is the outcome of the recentrenovations. Such improvement must beacknowledged. I hope all train stationswill have such facilities. Example:Mowbray station has such a facility.In simple terms, Prasa or Metrorail
must make sure that such concerns areaddressed finish and klaar. This is not arequest but this is their obligation to dosuch!
VICTOR PELOENG,Email
Daphne Kayster, Metrorail spokesper-son, responds:It is acknowledged that the rail systemis not yet fully accessible. It is one ofPrasa’s key strategic projects for thenext few years. The process is driven byPrasa corporate office as it affects all ofthe company’s services (bus, longdistance passenger and commuter rail aswell as facilities).Under the auspices of Prasa Group
(Metrorail’s principal) a universal accesspolicy inclusive of design, norms,standards and guidelines is beingfinalised. Universal accessibility is oneof the acknowledged priorities and allnew assets and facilities will have levelsof access as determined by the policy.The policy document includes prioriti-
sation of corridors, park and ridefacilities, prioritisation of target groups,the process and funding for upgrades,appropriate signage, security elements,rolling stock requirements, developmentof a training manual for employees todeal with travelers with special needsand special needs passenger (SNP) desksat major information centres whereliterature, accessible information andassistance will be available.The director of universal design in
Ppublic transport (responsible foruniversal design in public transport inthe national department of transport)assists Prasa to deal with universalaccess issues and works with Prasa andthe ministry of women, children andpeople with disabilities to help resolvethe matters listed.Until Prasa’s policy interventions are
in place, Metrorail as the rail operatormaintains a register of users thatrequire special assistance to ensure thatstation staff assist customers to travelwith dignity. Commuters with specificrequirements can register their require-ments at a customer information desk oremail [email protected].
How does a normal girl, from the southern sub-urbs, get lured into joining an extremist group?This is the question on many lips, after a 15-
year-old Cape Town girl was removed from a flight toJohannesburg. It is suspected she was attempting tojoin Islamic State (ISIS), a fundamentalist grouping inNorthern Syria infamous for recruiting terrorists.Media reports claim around 550 youngwomen are al-
ready settled in ISIS areas, with a steady flow of re-cruits from over 83 countries. Girls between the agesof 15 and 19 appear to be targeted, with promises of anidealistic, and even romantic, life.This recruitment is made even easier through social
media.Teenagers will always be teenagers. Idealistic, pas-
sionate and inclined to rebel.But just because they are adolescents, we should not
forget that they are still children who need protection.It falls to us – parents, teachers and communitymem-
bers – to take an interest in what our children are ex-posed to online.We need to monitor what sites they visit and whom
they speak to. While this might seem overbearing tosome, parents need to realise that not everyone on theother end of the chat is innocent.The best way to do this is to educate yourself on the
dangers of the internet. We can no longer be “technolo-gy challenged” parents.Communication is thenext strongest tool to ensuring
children remain safe. Don’t be afraid to ask your chil-dren about their online activities and whom they chatto. Set guidelines for using the internet and remindthem frequently to never give out personal details.There is even software that will allow you to monitorand limit internet use.Weare the first defence against thosewhowouldprey
on children, online or otherwise, and it falls to us todo everything in our power to protect them.

PEOPLE'S POST | GRASSY PARKTuesday, 14 April 2015 SPORT 11
The ladies team of the OldMutual Crick-et Club celebrates the end of the seasonwith two trophies in the bag.
Led byWestern Province opening bat andoff break bowler Carolyn Esterhuizen theteam won both the WP Women’s PremierLeague 50 over competition and T20 cup.The teammanaged this feat despite losing
to the runners-up in the round robin stagesof both competitions.
50 over finalOne of these runners-up was five times 50over champion Bellville Ladies, who boastsa number of provincial players.Old Mutual scored an impressive 204/7 in
the 50 over final against Bellville Ladies,with solid contributions by Esterhuizen (54)and young prodigy Laura Wolfaardt (60).Saarah Smith also contributed a useful 28.Chasing 205 to win, Bellville Ladies
showed that spin-bowling is its Achilles heelas bowlers Esterhuizen (1 for 29 in 8 overs)and Insaaf Ismail (4 for 56 in 9 overs) con-tained them.Bellville Ladies could only reach 154 all
out from 39 overs. Alexis le Breton, WP cap-tain, was the only resistance and ended on62.
T20 finalOld Mutual Ladies faced the UWC Ladies inthe T20 day/night final at Sahara Park New-lands. UWC topped the T20 round robin logfor the season. Having lost twice to the sea-son’s log leaders in the round robinmatches,Old Mutual went into the final as the under-dogs.Sending UWC in to bat allowed the Old
Mutual quick bowlers to blow UWC out ofthe park. Wolfaardt (1 for 10 in 4 overs) andNadima Khan (1 for 10 in 4 overs) bowled ac-curately to set the trend, but it was 16-year-old Tala Ross who stamped her mark on thegame and ended with a career best of 5 for8 in 3.1 overs.OldMutual namedher its play-er of the match.UWC could only muster up 65 all out in 19
overs which Old Mutual chased down with32 balls to spare. Esterhuizen achieved thetop score with 20 and Saarah Smith scored16.

Violets Rugby Football Club started off its2015 season with a tough 23 -22 victory overPniel Villagers this weekend in the WesternProvince Rugby Football Union (WPRFU)Super League B.For Violets this has been a remarkable
rise out of the dungeons of club rugby afterfinding itself in the lowest league the unioncould offer. Violets responded by winningpromotion five times in as many years, tofind themselves in the second highest league– the Super League B.Club chairperson Ismail Isaacs says that
the club is firmly rooted in the surroundingcommunity that it serves. As the club hasgrown, so too have the players that havestood by the club through good and badtimes, he says.Violets is based at Chucker Road sports
complex andmost of the players are from thesurrounding areas, such as Lansdowne,Hanover Park and Wynberg.“The club plays an important role in the
community as it aides in keeping the young-sters occupied away from other ills that arerife in our community,” says Isaacs.The club already has a junior structure
which comprises U-9, U-10, U-12, U-14 andU-16. The senior youth structure is made upof U-19 and U-20.Isaacs adds that the success of the club is
a direct result of the huge investmentsmadeby the club in its own youth structures.
Isaacs says he is very chuffed after thisweekend’s win, but he is aware that lots ofhard work lies ahead for the rest of the sea-son.
Violets make the step up
