Bulletin_120518 by Laeveld Bulletin - issuu
Die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit is in ‘n fiasko gedompel
en die skokkende debakel kan
die ergste ontwrigting en vertragings in noodsaaklike projekte sedert 1994 veroorsaak.
(MM), me Conny Mametja, het
haar kantoor Maandagoggend
onverwags ontruim en die gebeure het ‘n skokgolf van verontwaardiging in die dorp ontsluit. Me Faith Mashianoke, die
direkteur van beplanning en
ekonomiese ontwikkeling, is
aangestel om vir drie maande
as MM waar te neem.
Mametja se kontrak is twee
weke gelede vir ‘n verdere vyf
jaar hernu (soos eksklusief deur
die Bulletin aangekondig is),
maar dit het nie ingevolge die
jongste wysigings in
die Wet op Munisipale
Stelsels geskied nie en
was dus ongeldig. Die
pos moet geadverteer
word. Mametja het oor
die afgelope sowat agtien maande
sedert sy aangestel is, in baie opsigte die GTM reggeruk; veral die
Die Mopani Distriksmunisipaliteit het in dieselfde strik getrap en
MM Tim Maake sit ook tuis. Dit
is egter onwaarskynlik dat veel
mense hieroor ‘n traan sal stort.
Intussen is die GTM se regsadviseur, mnr (hy noem homself
graag advokaat) Pathudi Nkopodi, en die hoof van “Supply chain
management”, mnr Thabo Rakgomano, tans onderwerp aan ‘n
dissiplinêre ondersoek en daar
word bespiegel dat hulle geskors
gaan word, hangende verdere
ondersoeke. Die onlangse slae
die GTM in die howe
gekry het oor tenders vir paaie,
lê aan die wortel van die kommer oor veral Nkopodi se werk.
Ons kon tot gister nie ‘n enkele
siel opspoor om kommentaar
op al die woelings te lewer nie.
Soos deesdae byna weekliks gebeur, is die bestuurspan van die
GTM by een of ander bosberaad
of slypskool (sommige oefen
sommer hul sportvaardighede
vir vanjaar se munisipale spele).
Ons verneem egter die waarnemende direkteur van Gemeenskapsdienste, mnr Thulani Twala, moes ook die pos ontruim,
omdat hy nie gewaklifiseerd is
om daar waar te neem nie. Hy
is in die hospitaal en dus nie vir
kommentaar beskikbaar nie.
Intussen is daar woede oor
die DA-raadslede in die GTM
se hantering van dit wat tot
die aanloop van die fiasko aanleiding gegee het. Die DA het
die fluitjie geblaas oor die onwettige verlenging van Mametja
se kontrak — heel tereg — maar
hulle het in die betrokke raadsvergadering niks gedoen om die
pro-ses te keer nie, en so hul eie
onkunde daaroor saam met die
ANC ten toon gestel.
Me Desiree van der Walt, die
DA-leier in Limpopo, kon vanweë ander dringende sake oor
gesondheidsdienste en onderwys in Limpopo — wat ook in ‘n
krisis is — nie betyds kommentaar lewer nie, maar sal volgende
week met ons oor die saak praat.
Intussen slinger die GTM op

‘n Nuusbron vir baie
Bulletin het ‘n gewilde bron van nuus vir ander media geword — die gedrukte én die elektroniese media en berigte uit die Bulletin word
gereeld deur hulle gebruik. Twee weke gelede
het ‘n Afrikaanse dagblad ‘n nuusberig van ons
van sowat twee maande gelede knaphandig herskryf, sodat dit nie op plagiaat afstuur nie, maar
die feite daarin is presies soos ons dit aangebied
het. In die jongste gebruik van ons nuus verwys
die gewilde webwerf “Rugby 365” (grafika links)
op hul tuisblad (voorblad) volledig na ons berig
verlede week oor Limopo se rugbyskeidsregters
wat besluit het hul het genoeg gehad van ongedissiplineerde rugbyspelers en -administrateurs. Ons is verlede week in vier nuusbulletins
van verskillende senders aangehaal en dit gebeur
toenemend. Die nuusredakteur van ‘n nasionale dagblad het al gevra dat ons ‘n ooreenkoms
bereik, want hulle vertrou ons nuusaanbieding
omdat dit aktueel en betroubaar is.
Well-know Haenertsburg resident John
Murray, the 11th Duke of Atholl and commander of Britain’s only private army,
has died. The 83-year-old former land
surveyor, who inherited the title in 1996,
visited Blair Atholl, Perthshire, every
year for the Atholl Highlanders’ parade.
Blair Castle, the family seat since 1269,
yflew the duke’s standard at half mast
as a mark of respect after his death on
Tuesday. Read more on Page 3.
Die skokkende onkunde van stadsrade
en senior amptenare het die afgelope
week of wat verskeie slagoffers onder
senior amptenare geëis. Benewens
Tzaneen se munisipale
me Conny Mametja,
is die MM van die
Mopani Distrikmunisipaliteit, mnr Tim
Maake, ook nie meer in
die stoel nie (waaroor waarskynlik
net Limpopo se
Mathale ‘n traan
sal stort). Louis
Trichardt sit ook
sonder ‘n MM (mnr
Tshikalange), maar dit is
hy weg is (Giyani
toe). Mnr Thulani
Twala neem skielik nie meer waar
as ‘n direkteur by
die GTM nie en
mnr Thabo Rakgomano en “adv” Pathudi Nkopodi word ondersoek. Daar is ook
ander woelinge... Lees ons berig hiernaas en hou ons dop volgende week, vir
nog meer munisipale skoknuus!

Do you think the traffic police is really combatting traffic
Nadine Henning Vermeulen Glad nie,
wie ook al ja sê, bestuur met oogklappe.
Hulle is soos die regering: pleinweg korrup.
TrapSpotter Tzaneen No they don’t. Look at all
the people parking on disabled parkings. Look at
the chaos every morning at the Sasol on the R71.
They only sit with the camera at strategic places and relax.
I get photos of this on a daily basis and people are fed up.
Hennie Van Vreden They followed me to my
office and waited for payment for a 2009 fine.
Wasn’t even me. My vehicle, ok, but not me!
Leonie Jansen V. Rensburg Sal ook graag wil
weet hoeveel van die boetes wat uitgereik word,
wel betaal word.
Estie van Wyk Nee, glad nie.
Frederick Pohl Nee. Ek merk deesdae die
provinsiale verkeerspolisie by die kruising by Aqua
Plaza op waar hulle die stopstraat dophou. Ek
wonder hoekom hulle nie eerder die verkeer wat onwettig
by Sasol stilhou, dophou nie.
Pat Patterson So van die afgelope paar weke?
Watter verkeerspolisie? Is daar nog van hulle?
Hendra Gouws Haha! Geen handeldryf-bordjie
langs die pad waar hulle altyd sit met hul kamera
vir spoedoortredings. Wie moet dit polisieer?
Chantelle Van Zyl Nee wat. Om die regte woord
te gebruik om hulle te beskryf, is slapgat! Kyk watse
choas is daar elke dag by die Simpson garage se
verkeerslig. Mense kan nie dink om stil te hou as
hulle sien die ry is lank nie. Waar is verkeersbeamptes?
Duncan Hawthorne Ek dink hulle slaag. Vier
boetes gekry in een maand by skouterrein.

Katrien Bruwer Was sopas by Steers. Die
verkeersbeamptes staan soos gewoonlik by die
verkeerslig en skuins oorkant die straat staan ’n
yslike groot vragmotor geparkeer vir die nag, reg by die
geen stilhou bordjies!
Hennie Van Vreden Dink julle as ons hulle lelike
goed toesnou, hulle sal begin reageer? Kan nie
Charl Hattingh Hulle sal jou vinnig toesluit vir
Rodney Sabatier Unfortunately most people are
just generalising. If we like it or not, speed fines
are their work. Those collecting the “spot fines”
wouldn’t if we didn’t pay them when asking us to. Those
who pay are just as corrupt as those who receive.
Rialine Steyn Nee, hulle sit 3 of 4 onder n boom
en doen niks! Camp chairs en all! Pleks sit hulle by
die stop en go’s en vang die taxis wat indruk, of by
die robot waar mense draai in verkeerde bane! Hulle stel
net belang in speedtraps, dis al.
Hannes Enslin Kry daagliks met hulle te doen.
Ek is die eerste wat nie sal veralgemeen nie. Maak
my hartseer om te sien hoe sekere van die meer
geronde beamptes die res van die manne se name deur
die modder sleep. Die smous onder die brug ( R71 ), reg
agter die geen smous bordjie - ek daag enige wettige
smous uit om vroegoggend eerste daar te wees en jou
ware eerste uit te stal. Daar is geen manier wat die boete
wat jy gaan kry in enige hof kan staan nie. Sal net graag wil
sien wie reageer en wie se bek is dik.
Johan Deysel Nee, vernaam nie by Lifestyle
Centre nie en ook nie met die voetgangers by die
verkeersligte nie. In ’n baan vir reguit ry word daar
nou gedraai en andersom. Verpes ons eerder langs die
hoofpaaie vir lisensies en spoedkameras onder die koelte
bome of in die son gedurende die winter…
Vlieg raak en word opgewonde, verbaas, beïndruk, geïntereseer, verstom, hartseer, verbly en allerhande ander
emosies oor meeste sosiologiese
verskynsels soos, in geen spesifieke
volgorde nie, rassisme, homoseksuele verhoudings, transkulturele huwelike, emigrasie, bigamie en wat ook
al ons spesie tot dusver uitgedink
het en nog in die toekoms
Die jongste van hierdie verskynsels wat Vlieg
vermoed besig is om al hoe
gewilder te raak is die sogenaamde “GAP-year”, vry deur Vlieg vertaal
as “Gaping-jaar”! Of moet dit eerder wees
Die gewilde verduideliking vir so ‘n jaar,
gewoonlik deur ouers van papies wat besig
(ja besig?) is met so ‘n jaar, of diesulke papies
hulself, is dat hulle nie seker is wat hulle wil
doen nie, en dus ‘n jaar afneem om te besluit.
Of dat hulle matricky uitslae nie goed
genoeg was, so verstaan Vlieg, vir dit wat
hulle eintlik wil doen nie, en wag om vol-
gende jaar weer aansoek te doen!
Vlieg verstaan nie heeltemal hoe die uitslae regtig kan beter raak van ‘n jaar
se niksdoen daaromtrent nie. Rys
dit dan soos deeg?
Vlieg kan aan ‘n paar redes
dink waarom sekere papies so
‘n jaar eintlik sou wou neem.
Gaan Aanmekaar Partytjie!
Geen Ambisieuse Persoon!
Gee Aanmekaar-nog-geld Pappa!
Geen Arm Pappa!
Gaan Alkoholisme Probeer!
Geen Agtermekaar Papie!
Geen Allemintige Presteerder!
Gaan Alewig Parasieteer!
Gorrel Allerhande Poeiers!
Gee Aan my Pille!
Gits, Alweer Pregnant!
Nee wat! Vlieg koop nie hierdie slimstories
nie. Hierdie “Gaap-jaar”-storie is v.i. (Vliegs
insiens) net ‘n gawe mors van tyd. En na
Vlieg se mening ook maar nog ‘n rede vir die
ontstaan van ‘n hele geslag met min of geen
Gaap Aan Papies, Gaap Aan!

Still not a drop of water
for health centre!
The Duiwelskloof Health Centre in Modjadjiskloof
is still without water. After five months of reaching
out to the Greater Letaba Municipality and Lepelle
Northern Water, no one has come to their rescue!
The shortage of water has caused an intolerable
situation at the centre. “We are struggling to keep
patients’ treatment hygienic, when patients need
to wash their hands. No one seems to hear our
cry for help,” sayd a worried staff member.
Last month the GLM manager, Mr Mutshinyali,
called the head of Lepelle Northern Water reporting the matter. It was discovered that the pump
which supplies the centre and surrounding area
had been shut off — because people steal water
But the GLM’s spokesperson, Ms Lovers Sibanda, said they have not yet established the real
problem after trying many things. “At the moment our guys are busy fitting a valve to divert
water to the health centre. We are currently supplying water with our tanker.”
We tried to contact Lepelle Northern
Water several times this week, but nobody was available for comment.

Die gevaar op die R71 tussen die Sasol R71 en die Tzaneen Life Style Centre vererger. Met die padherbouing is daar nie

Limpopo Down Syndrome celebrate
The Down Syndrome children of
Nkowankowa, Phalaborwa and
N’wamitwa were recently treated to
a fun day to celebrate World Down
Syndrome day. It was held at the
AFM church of SA in N’wamitwa.
Orca Swimming Academy, Enviro
Wire Cars and Abstract Creations
worked together with Down Syndrome Limpopo over several months
to organise the celebrations.
Drums, a tambourine, paint, canvas, toys, puzzles, colouring books
and crayons as well as wire cars were
set up for the children. They could
also enjoy snacks and cold drinks.
Thirty-four children with Down
Syndrome and their siblings, who
assist them, attended the day and
enjoyed playing with the toys.
Enviro Wire Cars use the wire cars
as an instrument to stimulate almost all aspects of growth in a child.
While playing, children can imagine themselves driving their cars as
they go through all kinds of terrain,
learning to judge distance and are
exposed to excellent hand, eye and
body co-ordination skills.
Abstract Creation uses colour, music and fun activities to engage children in exploring their own creativity. An example is activities such as
playing drums, where even children
as young as two years learned to
play the tambourine and drumming
The organisers would like to thank
all the kind-hearted parents and
community members who helped
make the day possible
Down Syndrome Limpopo welcomes donations like second hand
clothing, toys, blankets and foods.
The next play day for Down Syndrome Limpopo is being planned to
be held before the end of the year.

GTM in krisis
Alarmisties. Dit is net één van die woorde
wat die afgelope week gebruik is om ons
te beskuldig dat ons die probleme in
die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit buite
verhouding “opblaas”, veral omdat ons
reeds twee keer gesê het die GTM se “seisoen van moelikheid” het aangebreek.
Vandag sit ons met ‘n GTM sonder ‘n munisipale bestuurder, vanweë ‘n stadsraad
wat nie weet wat hulle doen nie — en dit
sluit stadsraadslede van ál die politieke partye in die raad in.
Die toekenning van tenders vir twee
groot padbouprojekte van die GTM is
binne soveel maande in die hof getoets en
albei het vir die GTM op ‘n verleentheid
uitgeloop. Waar is die GTM se regsverteenwoordiger (wat so graag na homself
as advokaat verwys)?
By die skrywe hiervan het ons inligting
daarop gedui dat nog verleenthede ten
aansien van aanstellings in die munisipaliteit op hande is.
Die faux pas wat meegebring het dat die
munisipale bestuurder se aanstelling nie
binne die raamwerk van die wet was nie,
is pateties en het die GTM in ‘n krisis gedompel.
Daar is verskeie projekte wat in ‘n uiters sensitiewe stadium is — die elektrisiteitsnetwerk is een hiervan wat groot
omsigtigheid vereis — en waar daar nou
ongetwyfeld vertragings gaan wees.
Tzaneen se inwoners, veral ons sakelui,
verdien nie hierdie katastrofe nie en dit is
tyd dat die gemeenskap hul verteenwoordigers in die raad voor stok kry.
Stadsraadslede verrig lank nie meer gemeenskapsdiens nie. Hulle word betáál
om hul werk te doen!
Hoe werk die rugby?
Die By van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos: Dit
is vir Die By nogal ‘n riem onder die angel
om waar te neem dat Hoërskool Merensky
se rugbyspanne oor die algemeen puik vaar
teen omliggende dorpe se skole. Die By
neem waar dat Merensky nou in die mediumskole afdeling van Limpopo deelneem,
maar daar is iets wat haper.
HS Merensky se tuisblad gee ‘n volledige
uiteensetting van hul rugby-bepalings vir
2012 (oa ‘n wedstryd teen Ben Vorster!). Die
program gee ook die datums vir Beeldtrofee kwart-, semi- en finale wedstryde. Die
BY wil u graag verwys na aangehegte artikel vanuit die dagblad Beeld, waarin ‘n
uiteensttting gegee word van die vereistes
vir skole in elke kategorie.
Daarvolgens kwalifiseer ‘n skool vir die
mediumskole kategorie indien hulle op dag
10 van die skooljaar tussen 176 en 350 seuns
in totaal in die skool het.
So ver Die By se kennis strek, mag ‘n skool
wel in ‘n hoër kategorie aan die Beeldtrofee
deelneem as wat sy aantal seuns hom toelaat; ‘n skool mag ook in ‘n laer kategorie
binne sy provinsiale kompetisie deelneem,
maar nie aan die Beeldtrofee binne daardie
‘n Paar vrae ontstaan dus:
i) Hoeveel seuns is daar in HS Merensky?
ii) Indien dit meer as die 350 vir die mediumskole kategorie is, beoog HS Merensky
om aan die Beeldtrofee deel te neem, en in
Die By sal dit waardeer indien u vir ons
meer lig op hierdie saak kan werp.
• Al wat ons weet is dat Merensky bevestig
hulle gaan aan die Beeldtrofee-reeks deelneem,
daarom het ons die skool vir kommentaar op u
brief gevra. Hulle het die volgende kommentaar
aangebied — Redakteur:
Hoërskool Merensky is ‘n lid van die Limpopo Hoërskole Rugby Unie.
• Die genoemde Unie het einde 2011 aan alle
skole opdrag gegee om op hul tiende skooldag
seunsgetalle deur te stuur, vir deelname aan
die Noordvaal Beeldtrofee. Hierdie kompetisie
sluit alle skole van Christiana tot Musina in.

cologne te veel vir haar konstitusie en het dit
haar na haar oupa/ouma laat verlang wat
ook in ‘n ouetehuis is en nooit deur haar besoek word nie.
Ag, die redes is seker legio, maar niks
regverdig die DA om so blatant een persoon se selfsugtige, onbesonne beswaar tot
‘n politieke vlak te verhef nie. Dit laat my
wonder: wat is die DA se rêrige agenda?
Waar staan hulle in hul credo om na die belange van die hulpbehoewende om te sien?
Is dit beperk tot babas en oumense soen
voor die verkiesing, maar as dit gaan om
te “produce”, gaan dit om politieke gewin?
Laakbaar, om die minste te sê. Ek sidder om te dink dat hierdie mentaliteit die opposisie is en oral verkondig
dat hulle oor ‘n paar jaar die land gaan regeer. Eish, ten minste weet ons nou waar
die geld heengaan, maar wat gaan dan van
ons oumense word?
En dan het ek so wraggies my kruisie by
hulle getrek met die laaste verkiesing. Glo
my, ek en baie ander het nie hierdie “curveball” gesien kom nie. Miskien gaan dit
my laaste kruisie vir hulle wees, want, ten
spyte van wat die mense sê, ek is mal oor
oumense en dink ons skuld hulle so baie,
dat ons oud gaan wees by die tyd dat ons
hulle terug betaal het.
A nee a, DA, “shame on you”.
Roy Hurter van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos:
Kyk, ek sê lankal dat daar ‘n ouderdomsbeperking op die nuus op TV geplaas
moet word. Hopeloos te veel geweld en al
daai dinge wat die jonge verstandjies vir
ewig sal beskadig. Shame, dan moet ons as
ouers die skuld kry want ons het die arme
bloedjies nie die nodige opvoeding gegee
Maar kyk, toe ek vanaand die nuus sit en
kyk en ek hoor hoe agtien oumense sommer so sonder stamp of stoot, hul enigste
heenkome moet ontruim, net oor die DA ‘n
buurvrou se ongevoeligheid steun, was dit
darem wragtig te dik vir ‘n daalder.
Ek glo die beswaarde is seker maar ontstel
deur die feit dat sy die goue reël van afgetredenes vergeet het: moenie met ouderdom
spot nie, want as jy nie voor die tyd doodgaan
nie, kry jy dit self. Of miskien was die realiteit
van oud-word te na aan haar been, ek meen
nou maar, loer oor die muur en kyk hoe oom

Desiree van der Walt, MPL, 082 452 0444,
writes: After yesterday’s unannounced
oversight visit I undertook to the Provincial Pharmaceutical Depot in Seshego, I can
personally confirm that it is in a deplorable
condition. MEC dr Mabasa must act swiftly
to restore functionality at this depot.
Firstly, the issue of the shortage of medicines, evidenced by empty shelves at the
Depot, is putting a lot of strain on ordinary
citizens who rely on the public health care
system. To illustrate this, just yesterday
we received a public query from Mrs Weideman of Polokwane. She is a 66 year-old
diabetic pensioner who has not received insulin since March because of its non-availability from the Provincial Hospital.
The fact of the shortage of insulin was also
confirmed yesterday by the pharmacist I
spoke to at the depot.
Furthermore it also emerged that the
province does not have a contractor to supply insulin, as the contract with previous
supplier had come to an end. Even worse
there is also a problem with the distribution
of HIV/AIDS kits, as only two distributors
are contracted to supply our very vast province. This results in bulks of these much
needed HIV/AIDS kits being stored at the
depot instead of being distributed to hospitals and local clinics.
The DA cares about the well being of the
people of Limpopo and we will be engaging
with dr Mabasa to make sure that those who
rely on the public health services receive adequate health care. Access to health care is a
fundamental right in our Constitution.

The first ever international conference in Africa on the
genus Aloe will take place from 19 to 21 June at the
Forever Resorts Blyde Canyon. This gathering will look
at ‘The Story of Aloes’. Foreign speakers from the UK,
Saudi Arabia, the Canary Islands and Kenya as well as
a number of experts from SA will give illustrated talks
on aloes from areas ranging from South Africa to Madagascar and Arabia. Other topics will include talks ranging from the medicinal uses of aloes to the cultivation
and breeding of aloes and landscaping with them. The
African/Madagascan region is host to more than half of
the world’s succulent plant species. There is general
consensus that aloes are the flagship of these succulents. Mankind has been fascinated by them for millennia, at first by their medicinal uses and the colour they
bring in an often dry winter landscape. In the last few
centuries the interest has moved on to the scientific
level. A number of exhibitions are planned during the
conference. Enquiries: info@inhlabaindaba.co.za or

Please attend to our street!
Residents of Begonia Street in Florapark,
Tzaneen, are perplexed about the condition of
their street, the only one in the suburb that has
not been tarred.
For the past more than five years they have
had to live with the dust or mud, depending
on the season, causing their street to be a thorn
The company that developed that side of the
suburb built many houses in the street. “We
sacrificed a lot to pay thousands of rands for
our houses. Yet, when it rains cars cannot pass
here. Our houses get flooded by water from the

According to Florapark’s ward councillor, Mr
Roniel Rikhotso, it is a matter that he has been
attending to. He said that he has been communicating with the GTM to push the developer
to start with the construction of the street.
A meeting with the residents will be held to
inform them about the process.
The CEO of the company that developed the
area, only prepared to be known as Margaret,
said the development is not a tender.
“I’m working from my own pocket and my
aim is to build more houses before we start
with the tar road.” She added that if they had
tarred the road before the houses were built,
heavy loaded trucks would have damaged the
tar road before the project’s completion. “That
would result in a loss to the company,” she said.
Margaret concluded by saying that they will be
starting with the tar shortly, but that “it would depend on whether twe get funds from the bank”.

Talana area to be rehabilitated (where people live in distress)
People live in the most appalling circumstances...
The Talana area in Tzaneen is in
the process of being transferred to
(from Public Works), says Ms René
Pohl, a GTM councillor.
“The total rehabilitation of the area
will soon be one of the priorities in
Ward 15. There is a proposal that
the RDP houses be replaced with
low cost housing. This will not only
generate extra income for the GTM,
but create better and healt-hier living
conditions for residents — and will
also provide a place of residence for
students studying at the FET college.
However, a full public participation
process must first be followed to establish the needs of the residents.
“The street lights in Koedoe Street
towards Talana have been repaired,
the area next to the railway line has
been cleared and a temporary road
around Talana was graded for better access. This also gives better and
quicker access in emergencies.
“I would like to thank all officials
who reacted swiftly on my letter
with requests for Talana,” Pohl said.
She added that there is not sufficient bulk electricity to proceed with
development of the Letaba Mall, but
a services agreement is underway.
How can the GTM’s health department allow this?

strong for Triegies
The girls first hockey team of Stanford Lake
College had a tough fixture against Louis Trichardt recently. The game could have gone either
way and both goal keepers made some great
saves. The score at half time was 0-0. The second half belonged to Stanford. They scored an
early goal and continued to dominate, eventually scoring the second goal. They won 2-0. The
second team won 4-0, the u.16’s drew 2-2 and
the u.14’s lost 1-0. The first team consists of M

Tzaneen klop Suidskool
Ben Vorster en
Die Laerskool Tzaneen het verlede Donderdag hul rugbyseisoen op hul tuisveld met
’n soete oorwinning teen Pietersburg-Suid
Pietersburg-Suid is een van die stad se twee
groot skole en Tzaneen het gewoonlik die
onderspit teen hulle gedelf.
Maar volgens Tzaneen se mnr Willes Steenkamp word ’n regrukaksie tans by Tzaneen
se rugby gevoer, en voorspel hul oorwinning
’n voorspoedige pad na Limpopo se halfeindronde.
Ongelukkig het nie al hul spanne verlede
Donderdag gewen nie, maar die skool se
voorloperspan, die eerste span, het Suidskool
oortuigend met 19-12 geklop. Die tweede
span het getoon dat Tzaneen diepte het en
het Suidskool met 27-7 getrap. Die o.10A’s en BO: Tzaneen se eerste span is gemotiveerd om Limpopo-glorie te wen.

o.11A’s het met 15-7 en 20-7 geseëvier.
Tzaneen het Woensdag Polokwane toe ligakragmeting te gaan aandurf. Oosskool
Louis Trichardt is Tzaneen se teenstanders
gereis om Pietersburg-Oos in hul tweede was net te sterk gewees en het die dag gewen. in hul volgende kragmeting.
’n Nuwe era word môre in die kort geskiedenis van die FNB Classic Clash in Limpopo ingelui.
Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster kom in Polokwane teen Pietersburg Hoërskool te staan
in wat die afgelope twee jaar as die wraakstryd van die seisoen beskou word. Kort
nadat Merensky sowat ’n maand gelede
van die Laeveld Derby onttrek het, is hul
plek deur PHS gevul, wat die spanning vir
môre se ligakragmeting nóg hoër laat loop.
Intussen het PHS in hul vriendskaplike
kragmetings nog net ’n opdraende stryd
gevoer, terwyl die Vossies op die kruin
van nog ’n goeie seisoen is.
Die aksie begin 08:00 en die eerste rugbyspanne draf 12:20 op die veld.
Merensky defeats Tom Naudé Moller wen derde ronde
Merensky High School enjoyed a second
consecutive weekend of triumph on the rugby field when they took on Tom Naudé in a
friendly meeting in Polokwane on Saturday.
The highlight of the day was the clash between the first rugby teams. The Plasies
seemed to have maintained their form from
the previous week when they beat Frans du
AJ Brits, Jacques Coston, Lungile Mhlogo
and Solly Mukutu were the stars and contributed to a 36-19 victory.
The second team (Ratels) also won their
game comfortably by 23-0. The third team
won 33-12. The u.14A team drew 10 all, but
the u.14Bs, u.15s and u.16’s were not as fortunate.
Merensky’s netball teams were also too
strong for Tom Naudé. The first team
achieved a well-deserved victory of 31-20.
The u.14A’s and B’s, u.15A’s and B’s, and the
u.16A’s also showed some great skill and
were victors over the Tommies.
The Plasies were unbeaten on the hockey
field too. The first team beat the Tommies
6-0. Goals were scored by Goerge Joubert,
Raun Venter (2), Jason Moore, Willy Modiba
and Jean Minnaar. The second team won 4-0
and Pierre Swanepoel and Nicolas Jardim
Some of Merensky’s hockey players also
took part in the Bokkie Week last week.
Zunkie dos Ramos was selected for the u.16’s
and Dimarie Fernandes and Sally Oosthuyse
for the u.19’s.
The boys that were selected for Bokkie
Week teams include George Joubert, Tiaan
Venter, Jean Minnaar, Tommie Grobler,
Raun van Wyk and Ruan Venter, all selected
for the u.19 team.
• Merensky is facing Louis Trichardt at home
in their third league clash tomorrow. The action starts at 08:00, with the first rugby team
playing at 12:00.
Ruan Venter, George Joubert, Ruan van Wyk and Tiaan Venter.
BO: Die Junior Roof, die derde ronde van
die SA Junior Nasionale Veldrenkampioenskappe wat onlangs in Lesotho gehou is,
het aan Jaco Moller van die Hoërskool Merensky in Tzaneen sy tweede oorwinning die
seisoen besorg. Moller het die seniorklas vir
oopvierwielmotorfietse op ’n Extreme ATV van
Tzaneen-Suzuki gewen, nadat hy in die agtste
plek weggespring het. Wat sy oorwinning meer
indrukwekkend maak, is dat hy die wenstreep
met ’n pap band en ’n gat in die verkoeler gehaal het.
