Road is a grave dangerTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Maitland residents in Royal Road arecalling for something to be done ur-gentky about speeding vehicles in

that road before more lives are lost.This call comes after a five-year-old boy

was knocked down by a speeding car anddied on the scene on Sunday. It is allegedthat the child was coming from the parkacross the road where he was playing withother kids. Hewas accompanied by someonewho didn’t notice that he was left behind on

their way home. A speeding car knockedhim down, dragged him for a few metres be-fore stopping.Residents say the road is very dangerous

and they have been calling for traffic calm-ingmeasures. They are in constant fear thata lotmore liveswill be lost if nothing is done.There are claims that last year alonemore

than seven people were killed by speedingcars. The busy road has two primaryschools, a high school, a park and a sportsfield and that has a lot of people worried be-cause as a lot of kids use the road. Despitethis drivers are negligent and speed all the

time. Residents areworried that a lot of liveswill be lost if those in authority donot priori-tize the safety on this road.A concerned resident, Helen Major, says

they can’t take it anymore. Theywant trafficcalmingmeasures now. “A lot of people havelost their lives on this road and it seemsthose in authority don’t care. People are dy-ing, when are they going to put speed bumpsor stop signs or raised intersections on thisroad so that the cars don’t speed? It’s so dis-gusting how motorists use the road, theydon’t care about pedestrians.Wewant some-thing to be done as soon as possible,” she

says.Another resident, Cynthia Chivambo,

says they keep saying something will bedone, but they haven’t seen anything. “Weare told they are going to install speedhumps. It’s such a pain when we have to seesuch a thing happening to our children. Wewill now have to do it our own way as theresidents because those in authority areturning a deaf ear to us. These are our chil-dren and these are our streets so we are call-ing on those in authority to act. The guardi-ans of this child are devastated.”V Continued on page 2

Following a march by Kenfac residentsfourmonths ago asking formore resources,they are glad that Kensington Police sta-tion has additional officers.The residents were complaining about

the police station being under resourced,hence not being able to tackle crime moreeffectively. They handed over a memoran-dum of grievances to the station command-er, Lieutenant Colonel Bernice Josephs,and demanded a bigger work force. Now 12more recruits have joined the police sta-tion. However they still have to undergosome training, but they will be able to pro-vide their services at the police station andto the community as a whole.

Biofuel and electric buses are on the cardsfor the MyCiTi bus service in the near fu-ture.The City of Cape Town announced this on

the last day of the African Union of PublicTransport workshop on best practice.The importance of alternative fuel for

public transport counted among the top dis-cussion points during the final round ofcase study sessions at the workshop.Brett Herron, mayoral committee mem-

ber for transport, says: “While the MyCitibus service has improved the quality of lifeof our residents through access to afforda-ble, decent and safe public transport, wenow also have the responsibility to lowerour carbon emissions and the impact of pol-

lution. As such the City will issue a tenderfor the procurement of electric buseswithinthe next few months.”The City is also undertaking a research

project into biofuels.Experts in alternative fuel who attended

theworkshopcited that citieswill represent80% of energy use and carbon emissions by2025.Currently, 97% of public transport across

the world operates on diesel, contributingto pollution and climate change.“As we intend on growing our MyCiti

footprint with the roll-out of more routesacross the city, it is imperative that we in-vestigate cleaner and alternative fuels forour buses,” Herron says.

Sport is goodfor their healthTIYESE JERANJI

Nothing could beat the fun and activity asover 400 mental health patients gath-

ered to participate in the annual interactiveMental Health Sports Day at the Hartleyv-ale Sports Stadium in Observatory.Coinciding with Mental Well-being

Month in October, the event has successful-ly taken place for the past 15 years and isarranged by the Occupational Therapy de-partments of the four psychiatric hospitalsunder themanagement of theWestern Capedepartment of Health.Each facility gets a turn to host the Men-

tal Health Sports Day; this year is Valken-berg Hospital’s turn.According to Adieba Gamiet, Assistant

Director for the Occupational Therapy de-partment at Valkenberg Hospital, the pro-motion of physical health and general well-ness is an important aspect of OccupationalTherapy. “Our clients need to be actively in-volved in the management of their healthand welfare. Social engagement and mean-ingful activity have been recognised as cru-cial components for the well-being of men-tal health clients,” she says.Gamiet added that events such as the

Mental Health Sports Day, enables mental

health clients to engage socially with fellowpatients from the neighbouring psychiatrichospitals, which is an invaluable benefit totheir development.“Manyof our clientshavequite sedentary

lifestyles while in hospital which leads toweight gain and the development of co-mor-bid medical conditions such as high bloodpressure, elevated cholesterol, heart dis-ease, diabetes and osteoporosis. Physicalactivity and engagement counteracts the ef-fects of this and contributes towards im-proving their general health.”She explains that the sports day has been

structured to include sports and activitiesfor both the intellectually disabled (IDS)andgeneral adult psychiatric (GAP) clients.“The games are selected tomeet the varyingrequirements and abilities of our clients.Participants are encouraged to select thesport or activity they would like to partici-pate in. Available games include sprints,target throw, tug-of-warandsack races. Soc-cer, table top games are available for themore competitive athletes.”“Physical activities stimulate brain ac-

tivity which has the ability tomake one feelhappier andmore relaxed. This greatly ben-efits our mental health clients and enablesthem to engage socially, while improvingtheir psychological skills,” she says.

Mental healthcare patients from Valkenberg, Lentegeur, Stikland and Alexandra compete inthe water races on their sports day.

“They are not working on how do you beginto deal with this. This could have been avoid-ed if those in authority listened to us whenwe first suggested that something must bedone. Look what has happened now. We arethe people that stay close to the road, we seewhat happens every day, it’s not safe,” shesays.Constable Lorencial Johnson, spokesper-

son for the Maitland police station, confirmsthe accident. A case of culpable homicide isbeing investigated and no arrests have beenmadeyet. Thenameof the child is beingwith-held as the parents haven’t been informed.Apart from the speeding cars, residents are

also worried about big trucks that use theroad to enter residential areas. Not only arethey a great danger to the residents, they alsodamage the road andhouses close to the road.“Trucks also speed here and they make itvery difficult for us to enjoy the peace andquiet in our homes. When they drive downthe road, you can feel the vibration in ourhouses and some houses have cracked be-cause of it. We don’t want trucks using thisroad, it’s too dangerous,” says Major.Graham Daniels from the Maitland Com-

munity Policing Forum says traffic calmingmeasures are in the process of being imple-mented. “We definitely need measures be-cause the problem is huge and something isin the process of being done. The speeding

cars and the trucks are a major concern. It’sa safety hazard and the noise from the trucksare very disturbing. Imagine around 22:00and 23:00 trucks are still on the road. Thenoise is unbearable and houses vibrate bad-ly. We don’t want these trucks to enter resi-dential areas,” he says.Ward councillor Lisa McBride says the

road is of great concern and it’s her priorityto solve the problem. “Weare on track; every-thing is going well to implement the trafficcalming measures on that road. We havedone all that had to be done and we are put-ting a few things in place,” she says.The following traffic calming measures

have been approved for the 2015/16 financialyear:1) Pedestrian crossing lines across Royal

Road at its intersection with Station Road.2) One raised pedestrian crossing in front

of the Maitland High School (Grade 8-9).3) Four speed humps within the play park

vicinity.4) Four speed humps between Campden

Street and Second Avenue.5) Pedestrian crossing lines across Bodmin

Street, for the pedestrian bridge.However McBride will have to prioritise

traffic calming measures as the budget allo-cated will not be sufficient to implementthese measures at Maitland High School andCampden Street.

This part ofRoyal Road closeto the school isused a lot bytrucks andresidents arecalling forsomething to bedone immediate-ly due tovehicles thatspeed. PHOTO:TIYESE JERANJI

#Feesmustfall was the word of the week asstudents marched nationwide against an in-crease in university fees last week.After receiving thenews that feeswould in-

crease by 10.5% for next year’s academicyear, students all over the country took astand and fought against the increase.Following a week of protest, president Ja-

cob Zuma announced on Friday there wouldbe no increase in fees at universities acrossthe country next year.As protesting students marched on parlia-

ment last week Wednesday and Thursday,students from a private institution in Dar-ling Street in the city centre were also hin-dered from attending campus as protestingstudents clashed with police right on theirdoorstep.One Media student at Damelin, Mikhailah

Wagner, says she was warned by one of herlecturers onThursdaymorning lastweeknotto visit campus until it was safe to do so.While not all agree with the violence asso-

ciated with the students’ protest, even stu-dents from private instutions say they havethe utmost respect for their fellow studentsfor standing up against the fee hike.Jason Seekoei, an IT student at Damelin,

tell People’s Post the way the protestors went

about doing things got out of hand and thatthey invaded a space not just of the studentsat the campus but the vendors on the curbas well.He says, however, he supports the students

as the university feeswill affect future gener-ations. “As students we come from differentbackgrounds and this strike affects every-one,” he says.Wagner says she also respects the students

for sacrificing their studies to fight for whatis right.A spokesperson from Damelin says it was

interesting to witness the march last week,but also scary because they were not surewhatwas tohappenas themarching studentswere chanting and vandalising properties ofvendors in the street.Jerome Visagie, another IT student at

Damelin, says he applied to study further atone of the universities next year, but is wor-ried about tuition due to the steep increasethat was expected.Visagie says the only way to go forward is

for everyone to stand togetherandmakeadif-ference.Davin Love, also an IT student, feels the

fees at both private and public institutionsare expensive and not everyone can afford it.“If the leaders don’t take note, I say make

them listen even if it’s by force, because weare the future of this country,” he says.

Certify docs at post officeMaitland police call on the public to helprelieve the waiting time of long lines intheir community service centre for peoplewho want to have documents certified.These people can use the post office near-

byon the corner ofVoortrekker andStationroads close to the station.Constable Lorencial Johnson says their

concern is that police officials are keptbusy for long periods at a time certifyingdocuments and spending less time on theroads to prevent crime. But they will notturn anyone away who prefers to make useof the police for the certification of docu-ments.Theyarealsourge residents to remember

that they need to bring the original docu-ment with them if they wish to have a copyof the document certified.

Help to look goodafter treatmentTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

When someone is diagnosed with breastcancer a lot changes for her.

The treatment for breast cancer is oftenlife-saving. Less well-known is that thistreatment takes the patient on a traumaticjourney that can scar her appearance and,as a result, it often scars self-image.A turning point can be a Look Good Feel

Better (LGFB) workshop, like the one re-cently held at Groote Schuur Hospital.LGFB is a non-profit organisation that

holdsworkshops for cancerpatients aroundthe country to show them how to addressthe appearance-related side effects of treat-ment in a positive and practical way.Throughout Breast Cancer Awareness

MonthLGFBvolunteers are speaking abouthow their work helps cancer patients tocare for their skin.Tenworkshopsarebeingheld athospitals

and clinics across Cape Town this monthand another 10 will be held in November –at Groote Schuur, Tygerberg, N1 City, theConstantiaberg Haematology unit, Medicli-nic Panorama, Rondebosch medical centre,Vergelegen and Vincent Pallotti clinics andCape Gate medical centre.Helen Ohlhoff, a regional coordinator of

LGFB, says workshop participants aretaught about caring for the skin and how toapply skincare products. “Participantslearn about make-up to make themselveslook good and feel confident –which doctorssay contributes enormously to the healingprocess. Participants are given a range ofproducts to soothe and heal their skin andadvised on how to use them,” she says.The workshops also provide an opportu-

nity to connect with other women undergo-

ing the same treatments.DrLianaRoodt,who specialises in cancer

surgery, says surgery is generally the firstline of treatment for breast cancer, followedby radiation or chemotherapy.“The surgery scar becomes a physical re-

minder of the cancer journey. For somepeo-ple it becomes a mark of honour, but formany it unlocks much emotion and servesas a reminder of what they have beenthrough. The side effects of chemotherapyand radiation include extremely dehydrat-ed, dry and itchy skin, which can also be-come red or pigmented, brittle, darkenednails and the loss of hair, even of eyebrowsand eyelashes,” she says.V For more information visit www.lgfb.co.za or con-tact LGFB programme director Margaret Hewson on011 795 3927 or [email protected].

Food garden to help the elderlyTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

A ward councillor has jumped to the ideaof starting a food garden in her ward as

she believes it’s full of opportunity for thecommunity.

Bernadette le Roux, ward 55 councillor,says she was frustrated that a large piece ofCity-owned land became a dumping ground.

To use some of the land a children’s playpark was established last year as the landwas close to an early childhood developmentcentre. The area still had more space and sheenvisaged a food garden.

When she was offered funding to establishthe food garden in her ward she couldn’t re-sist it, that’s why she started the garden.

She created the garden specifically for the

high number of senior citizens in her ward.Most of them depend on social grants, so itwill help them supplement their meals.

People from different areas helped startthe permaculture garden using a techniqueof ecosystems intended to be sustainable andself-sufficient.

“There is a strong emphasis on care for theenvironment, care for people and fair shar-ing. It advocates for the examination of andfollowing nature’s patterns, which includesbiodiversity,” she says.

In the first phase trees were planted, in-cluding a nut, lemon, brown fig and pome-granate tree.

An assortment of vegetables was added,using companion planting – where vegeta-bles planted compliment each other.

Le Roux’s wish is to establish more such

gardens in other areas in her ward.In her support of permaculture gardening

she has done a presentation at a social devel-opment portfolio meeting with the intentthat all councillors adopt this method ofplanting in their own communities.

The community will be assisted for threemonths to look after the garden.

To make sure it doesn’t wilt thereafter thecommunity has formed a committee andthey will have to maintain the plants andmake the garden sustainable.

Some members of the community havecompleted two modules of a permaculturecourse.

The course covered soil, the nutrient cy-cle, compost worm farming, compost, raisedbeds, germination of seeds, healthy soil andcompanion planting.

The food garden that was created to helpsenior citizens in the area supplement meals.

Larger ICU willsave more kidsAn upgrade of the paediatric intensive

care unit (Picu) is underway at the RedCross War Memorial Children’s Hospital inRondebosch.

The expanded Picu will provide life-sav-ing treatment to thousands of the hospital’syoung patients.

With a dire shortage of Picu beds in SouthAfrica, the upgrade – at a cost of more thanR100m – will significantly improve inten-sive care services given to critically ill andinjured children.

Construction has officially begun and isexpected to be completed by October 2017.The new Picu will be able to accommodatemore patients than before and will have iso-lation units to avert cross-infection and aspecifically designed area for neonatal care.

The expansion and upgrade will also cre-

ate a comfortable and supportive space forparents and breastfeeding mothers. Cur-rently, family members have no privacy orspace between life-saving equipment asthey hold vigil at their child’s side. In-creased space will also mean that staff whowork very long hours saving lives in toughconditions, will have adequate accommoda-tion. These staff members work tirelessly toprovide clinical, educational and researchservices.

The current Picu at the Red Cross Chil-dren’s Hospital is already the largest inten-sive care unit for children in Africa. Thereis a dire need to boost its capacity due tothe growing demand for Picu beds.

The Children’s Hospital Trust is fundrais-ing for the project cost. Government willcontribute R30m.

Prof Andrew Argent, head of the paediatric intensive care unit at the Red Cross War MemorialChildren’s Hospital, and provincial health minister Nomafrench Mbombo break down the wallof the current Picu so that construction on the new Picu can start.

Limile Tsodo (4) from Khayelitsha, a patient at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’sHospital, and Gina Sinclair help break down the wall of the current paediatric intensive careunit as construction starts on the expansion of the Picu so that it will be able to help moreyoung patients.

During the recent student protests, much has been saidabout privilege, especially white privilege.

We are so comfortable with the concept of “underprivi-leged”, but the very mention of privilege has us blockingour ears.

Privilege is not only white; it is the black student whotweets and tells her fellows they should study at UWC in-stead of UCT if they don’t have money. Privilege is not onlywealth; it is being able to comfortably afford to feed yourfamily. Privilege is not only ignorance; it is the politicianwho earns enough to pay back several students loans.

Privilege does not mean you did not work hard for whatyou have. Privilege does not mean you did not face hardtimes. Privilege does not mean you have to give what youhave to someone else.

Privilege means you were afforded opportunities thatsomeone else was not – either through your race, wealthor affiliations. It is not measured in comparison to whatthose with the most have, rather to what those with the leasthave. It is as simple as being schooled in your mothertongue.

You do not have to feel guilty or defensive over your privi-lege. You have to acknowledge it.

What you are acknowledging is that another person’s ex-perience is valid and important, even though it is differentfrom yours. You cannot make assumptions about their ex-perience based on your life; even more so when comingfrom a radically different background. This includes notpassing comments to say “poor people are lazy” or how inyour day things were worse. These statements attempt toreduce the value of another’s experience.

Once you have acknowledged your privilege, it falls toyou to use it to make changes. Use your influence to makeeconomic and legislative changes. Stand supportive withthose who are fighting for equal opportunities. Share yourwealth and opportunities with those who do not, and maynever, have access to them.

With privilege comes responsibility.

Student protestsleave questionsThe last few days have been a hectic onefor one and all living in or visitingSouth Africa as university students tookto the campuses, the streets, the gates ofparliament and almost to the front doorof the Union buildings.

We must give credit to our mediacrews risking life, limb, liberty andproperty in bringing us the events thatat stages developed from peacefulness toviolence.

As events unfolded there must bequestions asked, but the big questionsare: Who is going to ask these questionsand who is going to answer them?

Why did student leaders not identifythemselves and their status in the mediaand then inform those in power of thepurpose of their protest and what theyexpect in response?

Why did our minister of highereducation not address the students inperson and respond or rather make acommitment to respond to the studentsdemands?

Why were the police officers on theground not interviewed to state whattheir function was in terms of illegalgatherings and explain why they wereexecuting actions as they unfolded?

Why did our president and the studentleaders, the ministers and the universityheads not meet straight after the minis-ter of finance’s speech on Thursday to

prepare themselves for the Fridaygathering of students at the Unionbuildings?

Why then, in relation to this, did ittake so long to address the studentswhile the long waiting period onlyfuelled and heightened tensions?

Why did the police not take thenecessary action when rocks and stoneswere thrown at them and journalists, asthis is a criminal act and could have ledto death and serious bodily harm? Or isthis the new method to deal with violentprotest, dodging and diving the missles?

Why did the elected student leadersnot come to the fore and condemn theacts of violence and distance themselvesfrom these who were perpetratingcriminal acts?

Why did the government take theirtime and at leisure responded to thequestions raised by the students?

And my final question: Why were ouropposition politicians so silent andinvisible in the whole matter? This issueof national importance to students andall South Africans could have been dealtwith at the genesis stages and taken allthat has happened and one answersthese questions then there is a finalcritical question: What is the wayforward from the lessons identified?

Just minutes to clean up rubbishWhat is the problem with residents who,after their bins have been emptied,ignore the rubbish which has been leftbehind and littering the pavements afterthe homeless people have ravaged theirbins?

Yes, I realise it is not the residentswho put it there, but surely we shouldall have enough pride in our communityto pick it up and put it back in our bins?

The dustbin men do not have time toclean up as they move down the street,yet it only takes a few minutes forhomeowners to do so.

Just how many people take the time toclean out their dirty bins? I so oftenpass many bins which are filthy andvery unhygienic.

LYNN VAN LEEVE,Simonstown

City is sorryfor vehiclelicence delayThe letter “Don’t ‘improve’ it break it”(20 October) refers: We apologise for anyinconvenience that has been caused.

The problem did not arise in the Citycouncil processes. The challenges thathave arisen from the transfer of theelectronic national administration trafficinformation system (eNaTIS) between thenational department of transport and theroad traffic management centre (RTMC)have affected renewal notices across thecountry and continue to do so.

As a courtesy, the RTMC, which is anational agency, posts renewal noticesabout six weeks before car licencerenewals are due, but it has always beenthe duty of the car owner to renew thelicence before it expires.

Municipalities implement the carregistration and licensing function onbehalf of provincial governments. Assuch, the City is a registering authorityon behalf of the Western Cape govern-ment and as soon as we were informedthat no renewal notices had been postedby the RTMC, we immediately startedputting in place plans.

We have, as timeously as possible, beencommunicating through a broad spec-trum of media over the past weeks, haveincreased our capacity for car registra-tions online, have enhanced signage atour customer offices and are in commu-nication with senior provincial govern-ment management to obtain the necessa-ry authority from the department oftransport to extend the 21-day graceperiod which applies to licence renewals.

The situation is being monitored and,where necessary, we will allocate stafffrom other offices to the busier offices.

We would like to again emphasise thatmotorists whose licence discs will expireon 31 October and are renewable by 21November will also not be receivingrenewal notices.

Thekla Salmon from Observatory, alsoknown as the Domestic Goddess, has

collaborated with Stodels Nurseries to pro-duce a series of “Cooking with herbs”themed demonstration videos.Theybelieve there is nothing quite as sat-

isfying as growing and cooking your ownvegetables and herbs. Freshly picked herbsfrom your garden pack so much flavourthat they can help transform simple, every-day dishes into something delicious andnutritious, they say.The aim of the collaboration is to inspire

and show viewers how best to use theirhome-grown or shop-bought herbs to makedelicious meals.Salmon has always grown herbs and

cooked with it every day. Over the yearsshe has been shopping at Stodels for herplants, so when there was a discussion onsharing some tips on how to cook withherbs, she believes it was a natural fit forher.The video series started with preparing

aromatic herb salt and herb oil and show-ing how it can be used in basic dishes.Last month there was the “one-pot won-

der”, prepared in two different ways, aswell as an Asian salmon salad.Next they will be looking at summer

soups and salads. Ahead of the festive sea-son she will share a mouth-watering roastlamb dish.TheDomesticGoddess says she is excited

about being able to inspire people to get in-to their kitchen and use fresh produce toprepare a delectable, quick meal that looksand tastes fantastic. “I like fresh, simplefood, bursting with natural flavour, colourand texture which doesn’t take an age toprepare. People are embracing good quali-ty, ethically produced food, celebrated forits natural goodness,” she says.According to her the video series is a step

in achieving her dream to reach, teach andinspire as many people as possible to usehealthy cooking principles.“Cooking shows and videos are the best

way to achieve this aim, so I’d love to hostmy own cooking show one day,” she says.Her journey as a cook started when two

friends, who are busy career women andhad just had babies, told her they didn’thave the time or energy to cook.“This sparked an idea forme to train peo-

ple to cook. It started with me giving thema tandem birthday gift by teaching theirnannies how to cook healthy family meals.“This has grown into teaching individu-

als, catering for special occasions, someprivate chef work and hosting cookingdemonstrations at functions and parties.V To view the “Cooking with herbs” videos visitwww.stodels.co.za or www.domesticgoddess.co.za.

Golf day to support sport projectsPlay Sport4Life (PS4L) will be hosting its

first charity golf day on 20 Novemberto raise funds for community sport pro-

jects in the Kensington, Factreton and Mait-land areas.

The event will be held at the Mowbray GolfClub, with PS4L still finalising and wrap-ping up negotiations with a few South Afri-can sports personalities to support the orga-nisation on the day.

A number of major sponsors have alsojoined the party, namely FNB, Engen andStreamline Agencies as major sponsors andthe many prizes on offer will include golfingand sports equipment.

Miles October, head of PS4L, says the orga-nisation has gone ahead in leaps and boundssince it started last year.

“It has been an eventful first year forPS4L, but we are just getting started,” hesaid.

“Thus far, we have made great strides inbringing the local communities together andforging new friendships through our multi-faceted sports programmes and initiativesin the Kensington, Factreton and Maitlandareas.

“PS4L has grown tremendously as an NPOsince we were established in 2014. Our soc-cer and cricket tournament for juniors in

the Factreton area was an unqualified suc-cess. We had over 1000 kids from the areaparticipating.

“But there is a mountain of work to bedone if we want to achieve our objectives inthe community.

“However, nothing comes without a cost.There are overheads involved in organisingour community events and we are no differ-ent from other NPOs – we need support. ThePS4L golf day will help us help the kids inthe community.”

The focus of the organisation at this stageis the Kensington, Factreton and Winder-mere areas, but it plans to launch communi-

ty projects elsewhere in areas of needaround Cape Town.

In addition to the major sponsorships,they have also secured a number of othercorporates and individuals to sponsor ahole, prizes and enter a team.

“The Mowbray course is one of the mostpopular and scenic courses in the Peninsula.It will make for a great day for a great cause.The event will culminate with a prize-givingceremony and auction at the 19th hole,” Oc-tober said.V Contact Nazlie Dollie on 071 3866 573 or [email protected] if you would like more informationabout how to enter a team to participate.

The City of Cape Town’s council will consid-er a recommendation made by its mayoralcommittee to host the HSBC World SevensSeries at the Cape Town Stadium.

Tickets for the event are already on sale,with the final day of the two-day event al-ready sold out, but the City and the SouthAfrican Rugby Union (Saru) were yet to ironout the final details for the December event.

The mayoral committee has recommend-ed that the council note the cash donationmade by the Western Cape government toSaru as well as to note their waivering of allcosts related to their emergency medical ser-vices.

It was also recommended that council con-sider waiving the stadium costs.

The City has also been asked to open thefan walk as part of the transport plan for thetwo days.

“I look forward to a positive outcome inthe final approval process by council.

“This is a popular rugby series and theCity of Cape Town is proud to be chosen asthe host city to help elevate the status of theseries. We anticipate that the event will at-tract a huge contingent of international me-dia which will further help to promote thestatus of Cape Town as an events destinationof choice,” said Garreth Bloor, mayoral com-mittee member for tourism, events and eco-nomic development.

The South African leg of the World SevensSeries takes place on 12 and 13 December.

Normies softball club showed no fearwhen it took on St Martins in a tightlycontested match at Turfhall Stadium

in Athlone on Saturday.The newcomers, whowere promoted from

major league to super league division de-spite ending third last season, started on ahigh note and proved to be no walk-over, re-gardless of their forfeit against Falcons last

week due to a shortage of players.With a shaky start by St Martins they

managed to only score one run, leaving run-ners on base unable to score.This allowed their opponents to equalise

early with both teams scoring one run each.The second innings was not much differ-

ent in terms of scoring. St Martins took thelead by one run and kept Normies scorelesswith thehelp of their pitcherShanineGroep-ies. The score remained close with Normiesscoring in the third innings, but St Martins

were still leading and got their team to scoretwo runs earlier in the third innings, takingthe score to 4-2.During the fourth innings, Normies made

the change in pitchers with Shamiera Ry-lands who relieved Amy Minnies and keptSt Martins scoreless yet again.This produced a fighting spirit in the new-

comers, who then scored another run, mak-ing it 4-3. They continued fighting to keep StMartins scoreless.The Bishop Lavis side, whose nerves were

shot, made error after error and concededthree runs, giving Normies an opportunityto take the lead.But the battle was far from over as StMar-

tins redeemed themselves, scoring four runsin their last turn at bat, giving away no runsto their opponents.The final score was 8-6 with St Martins

coming out victorious.In other results, Falcons defeated VOB

with a convincing 11-0 victory, while Glen-thorn As whipped Westridge Yankees 20-1.

Normies put up a brave fight
