Fighting the inferno
Firefighters battled a vegetation fire in the Helderberg mountains above the Helderberg Nature Reserve yesterday (Wednesday). Theo Layne of Fire and Rescue said the blaze started in the early hours of yesterday after a fire in the Jonkershoek Pass spread. Poor visibility earlier in the day delayed waterbombing by helicopters. By midday Koos Jordaan, Lourensford CEO, said firefighters were deployed to the slopes of the mountain and that the fire was controlled.He was grateful for the support of the community.

JONG MAN DOODGESKIET: DWELMS, VUURWAPENS ’N GROOT PROBLEEM
Brandpunt van geweld VERSLAGSPAN Misdaad in Sir Lowry’s Pass is in die kollig ná die koelbloedige skietdood van ’n 24-jarige jongman Maandagaand. Nog drie persone is gewond, insluitend ’n 10-jarige meisie wat in die voet geskiet is, ’n 15-jarige seun wat in die skouer geskiet is en ’n 16-jarige swanger vrou wat in die sy geskiet is. Volgens die stasiebevelvoerder van Somerset-Wes, Kol. Mary-Anne Williams, het die voorval om 19:35
in Mandela-rylaan gebeur. Twee mans het verby ’n groep jong mense geloop en met vuurwapens op hulle losgebrand. Ricardo Pietersen het in ’n koeëlreën gesterf, terwyl sy 16-jarige vriendin in die sy gewond is. Volgens inwoners hou die voorval verband met ’n reeks skietvoorvalle verlede week, en is dit bendeverwant. Niemand is in dié voorvalle beseer nie. Inwoners is van mening dat Pietersen se dood ’n sluipmoord was en dat die eintlike teiken ’n lid van een van die twee bendes in die area was. Sedert die skietvoorvalle is buurt-
wag-patrollies saans ook afgeskaal. Volgens Hendrik Mouwers, buurtwag-voorsitter, is dwelmhandel en onwettige vuurwapens ’n groot bekommernis in die gemeenskap. Hy sê dat kinders so jonk as 15 jaar oud dwelms verkoop en die gebied ongeveer 30 onwettige smokkelhuise het. Volgens Williams is daar sowat 14 dwelmhuise in Sir Lowry’s Pass. Genl-majoor Johan Brand, polisiehoof vir die Khayelitsha-streek, bevestig dat dwelmhandel en onwettige vuurwapens ’n kwelpunt is. Hy sê ook dat bendes na die area migreer. Volgens Brand kan daar in dié sta-
dium nie bevestig word dat Maandag se skietvoorval bendeverwant is nie omdat die saak nog ondersoek word. Brand sê daar is sedert Januarie ’n skerp toename in misdaad, insluitend moord op dié dorp. “Die misdaad in Sir Lowry’s Pass is tans hoër as in Lingelethu-Wes in Khayelitsha, met vier moorde wat die afgelope drie weke aangemeld is,” sê Brand. Daar word sedert Januarie gereelde misdaadbekampingsoperasies, wat die plaaslike polisie sowel as ander polisietaakmagte insluit, gehou. Brand sê ook dat polisie-optredes verskerp sal word. Brand sê egter dat
die samewerking van die gemeenskap met betrekking tot misdaadbekamping gebrekkig is en dat ’n gebrek aan getuienis veroorsaak dat daar nie sterk sake teen misdadigers is nie, en dat daar nie volledige vervolging is nie. “Dis moeilik om ’n goeie saak op te bou as daar ’n gebrek aan getuienis is,” sê hy. Hy sê dat daar wel goeie samewerking tussen gemeenskapsleiers en die polisie is. Volgens Brand word daar Maandag ’n imbizo by die plaaslike gemeenskapsaal gehou om dié misdaadprobleem aan te pak. ) Sien nog op bl. 4.

Proposal on table for N2 arrestor bed DALEEN FOUCHÉ
) A Strand resident (59) will appear in court today (Thursday 12 March) after allegedly discharging his firearm in a residential area. Strand police say the suspect was walking in De Beers Road, Strand, when he was allegedly accosted by a suspected robber. The suspect then set off his firearm and was later arrested for discharging a firearm in a municipal area. ) A Lwandle man (29) was arrested this past weekend by the Metro Police for being in possession of tik (122 g) and cocaine (4 g) worth R10 000. The drugs were found in the ceiling of the man’s home. He appeared in court on Monday 9 March. ) Gordonsbaai-polisie, die Metropolisie en Gordonsbaai-sekerheid het verlede Vrydag (6 Maart) ’n gesamentlike operasie uitgevoer. Inligting van die gemeenskap het tot die inhegtenisneming van vyf mense gelei. ’n Verdagte (34) is vir die besit van tik by ’n gelisensieerde drankwinkel in hegtenis geneem, terwyl ’n man (28) vir die besit van dagga by ’n woonperseel in hegtenis geneem is. Drie verdagtes, twee mans (33 en 34) en ’n vrou (42), is vir die besit van gesteelde goedere, waaronder ’n munisipale lamppaal, lig en kettingsaag, in hegtenis geneem. Al die verdagtes het in die Strand-landdroshof verskyn.
Authorities are moving ahead with plans for an arrestor bed at the bottom of Sir Lowry’s Pass. Two lives have been lost in the last two years when runaway trucks ploughed into motorists at the bottom of the pass approaching Somerset West. On Monday the same tragedy nearly played itself out again when a truck coming down the pass allegedly failed to break. The truck hit the back of two stationary cars that were waiting for the traffic lights at the Gordon’s Bay turn-off to turn green. No injuries were reported. It was at this intersection that Wynand Cillié (22) lost his life in December last year when a runaway truck crashed into him. Two years earlier, 25-year-old Thelana Kotze, a teacher from Stellenbosch, was killed when her small Nissan bakkie landed under the wheels of a heavy-duty runaway truck. A petition was started last year to install an arrestor bed at the pass to bring runaway trucks to a stop. Al-Ameen Kafaar, spokesperson for the Western Cape Department of Transport and Public Works, says a feasibility study has
The truck involved in an accident at the intersection of the N2 and Old Sir Lowry’s Pass Road on Monday. been completed. He says the study showed the road reserve is not wide enough to build an arrestor bed on the proposed site, adding that additional road reserve will have to be gained from the neighbouring nature reserve. Kafaar further says that in order for
the Department to gain the identified land, an Environmental Impact Assessment has to be done that includes a public participation process. This appointment will only happen after the end of March, or during the next financial year, starting 1 April.
Suspects of illegal possession of drugs, firearms in custody The two men who were busted with more than R450 000 of tik and mandrax, and firearms last Saturday faced the court earlier this week. Anwar Jacobs (26) and Zahicari Gardener (29) appeared in the Strand Magistrate’s Court on charges of the illegal possession of drugs and firearms on Tuesday. Police arrested the two on the premises of a tow-truck company

AECI to sell off land DALEEN FOUCHÉ
The massive landholding known as Paardevlei may have new owners before the end of the year. AECI, the current landowner, confirmed to DistrictMail this week that it is considering various offers for the more than 740 hectares that constitute the bulk of the Paardevlei landholding. The current value of the land is an estimated R545 million. Fulvia Putero, spokesperson for AECI, says the reason for the sale of Paardevlei is because property development is not part of AECI’s core business. Putero adds that AECI would like to see the deal concluded this year. DistrictMail reported previously that once developed, Paardevlei could constitute an entire new town. Previous plans to develop the land in various precincts would have seen the land transformed into mixed use nodes that would include residential, commercial and industrial development. Benedicta van Minnen, ward councillor for the area, says this will most likely still be the
case. She has been following the changing plans of the Paardevlei landholding closely for several years now and says that although several proposals have been on The borders of the massive Paardevlei landholthe table, the core strategy for the develop- ding that is currently for sale. ment at Paardevlei has always been mixed land use.

DALEEN FOUCHÉ Familie, vriende en lede van die Universal Motorcycle Club (MCC) het Maandagaand by Mediclinic Vergelegen bymekaar gekom om vir Pieter Marais, 32, wat in ’n ernstige motorfietsongeluk was, te bid. Pieter, ’n inwoner van die Strand en IT-besigheidsman, was Sondagoggend ná kerk oppad huis toe, toe die ongeluk gebeur het. Volgens konst. Mbulelo Mafuna, woordvoerder van die Strand-polisie, is die oorsake van die ongeluk tussen ’n kombi en die motorfiets nie bekend nie. Geen insittendes van die kombi is beseer nie. Nico Marais, Pieter se broer, sê die ongeluk het regoor Big Blue in Kusweg gebeur. Hy vertel dat Pieter sy motorfiets laat kantel het toe hy sien hy gaan bots. “Dit is tweede natuur by motorfietsryers om hulle motorfietse neer te sit in so ’n situasie.” Nico berig Pieter het onder die kombi beland terwyl die voertuig nog beweeg het. Coen Marais, Pieter se pa, sê Pieter is na Mediclinic Vergelegen geneem waar hy tans in die intensiewe sorgeenheid is. Hy is tot gister onder verdowing gehou sodat die bloeding op sy brein kan afneem. Coen sê die drukking

op die brein het Woensdag gesak en doktors het die medikasie wat hom onder verdowing gehou het gestaak. Behalwe vir die kopbesering en skade aan sy kakebeen, het Pieter geen ander beserings nie. Coen sê eers wanneer Pieter wakker word sal dokters kan vasstel wat die omvang van die skade aan sy brein is. Universal Riders MCC, waarvan Pieter ’n lid is, en ander plaaslike motorfietsklubs het Maandag by die hospitaal bymekaargekom om vir Pieter te bid en ondersteuning te bied. Coen sê hy is baie dankbaar dat sy seun nog leef en hoop dat hy ten volle sal herstel. “Ek glo dat hy weer sal motorfiets ry.” ’n Facebook-groep ter ondersteuning vir Pieter se mediese onkoste is gestig. Nico verduidelik dat Pieter nie mediese versekering het nie. Vir meer inligting, besoek die Facebook-groep, Pieter Marais fundraiser for hospital expenses.

The court case against Jaco Truter, the owner of En Route Towing, and two of his employees, John MacFarlane and Jacobus MacFarlane, has been postponed until Tuesday 31 March. The three men appeared in the Somerset West Magistrate’s Court again last Thursday (6 March) on charges of assault stemming from an incident on Tuesday 3 February. A fight broke out after several tow truck-
ing companies responded to a minor accident on the corners of Bizweni and Schapenberg Roads at 07:45 that morning. Truter admitted to DistrictMail that he had hit the Somerset West driver in an attempt to calm him down after he became aggressive towards the driver of the Toyota Tazz that had crashed into his MercedesBenz. The Somerset West man and his wife also allegedly hurled racial insults at the Tazz’s driver and his daughter, who was in the car at the time.

RUGBYSPELER STERF NÁ INEENSTORTING BY OEFENING
Sportman het voluit geleef DELIAH BRINKHUIS “Hy was my baby en het voluit geleef. Sy lewe het om sport gedraai. Ek kan my nie ’n lewe sonder hom voorstel nie.” Dis die herinneringe wat Amina Fanie van haar oudste seun, Muneeb, ’n belowende sportman, het wat verlede Woensdag ná ’n rugby-oefensessie by die Charles Morkel-stadion gesterf het. Muneeb (21) het in die posisie van heelagter vir die Strand United-rugbyklub en ook raakrugby vir die Pacific Blues-span gespeel. Muneeb, ’n finalejaarstudent aan die Exercise Teachers Association kollege in Stellenbosch, was ook ’n kranige 100 m- en 200 m-atleet vir die o. 25-Maties-atletiekspan. Hy het die vorige Saterdag gedurende die Boland-kampioenskappe in aanmerking gekom vir die nasionale kampioenskappe wat in April gehou word. Volgens sy pa, Nazeem Fanie, het Muneeb aan ’n oorerflike hartkwaal gely wat veroorsaak dat die hartwande verdik. Nazeem sê Muneeb was andersins in goeie gesondheid. Fanie, wat ook aan die siekte ly, sê albei sy seuns, Muneeb en Thaakir, word sedert die ouderdom van 15 deur die Universiteit Stellenbosch (US) se mediese fakulteit gemonitor en moes sesmaandelikse toetse ondergaan. Volgens Amina het Muneeb Woensdagmiddag genoem dat hy moeg voel. “Soos elke dag het ek hom ná kollege gebel. Hy het gesê hy voel baie moeg en ek het gesê hy moet ’n bietjie gaan rus,” vertel Amina. Volgens Nazeem het hy sy seun net voor 20:00 op pad rugby-oefening toe gebel. Sowat ’n halfuur later het hy die nuus gekry dat Muneeb gedurende die oefensessie ineengestort het. Noor Davids, Muneeb se oom wat op die be-
stuur van die Strand United-klub is, was op die sportterrein ten tyde van die voorval. Volgens Davids het Muneeb net begin opwarm. “Hy het nog verby my gehardloop en gegroet. Oomblikke later het iemand geskree dat hy ineengestort het,” vertel Adams. Hy is na die Mediclinic Vergelegen gehaas. “Teen 22:00 het die dokter kom sê dat hulle alles probeer het, maar hom nie kon bybring nie,” sê Nazeem. Muneeb is die volgende dag (Donderdag) vol-

gens die Moslemgeloof begrawe. Hy word oorleef deur sy ouers, Nazeem en Amina, asook twee broers, Thaakir (19) en Chalil (7), sy meisie, Aneesha Adams, en hul ses maande oue baba, Israeel. Volgens Nazeem en Amina was die ondersteuning van die gemeenskap oorweldigend. Hulle wil graag hul dank daarvoor uitspreek. “Mense het so baie mooi herinneringe aan hom met ons gedeel wat ons laat besef het hoe geliefd hy was,” sê Nazeem.
Young rugby player’s death shocks rugby community MARK STUART The death of the young Strand United rugby player Muneeb Fanie (21) during rugby practice at the Gustrouw sports grounds on Wednesday 4 March, has left the tightknit local rugby community in shock. According to Muneeb’s father, Nazeem Fanie, Muneeb suffered from a genetic heart disorder that resulted in the thickening of the walls of his heart. Nazeem said that besides this, Muneeb was in good health. A player who was training alongside Muneeb on the day said everyone was taken by surprise when he collapsed, but they did all they could to help him. They quickly got a car onto the field and rushed him to hospital. He said Muneeb was going flat out at practice and was not holding back at all. He looked fit and healthy.
He added that there are always fully qualified first-aid personnel at matches, but never at practices. The Western Province Rugby Football Union (WPRFU) has made it mandatory that no rugby matches in the province may start without first-aid personnel being present. However, this rule does not extend to practice sessions. Danny Jones, WPRFU head of amateur rugby, emphasises though, that all clubs have to have either level 1 or level 2 qualified coaches, which includes first-aid training, as well as BokSmart qualified personnel. BokSmart is the South African Rugby Union’s safety programme, developed in association with the Sports Science Institute of South Africa. In light of what happened to Muneeb, players at several local clubs have since indicated that they would like to see fully trained first-aid personnel present at all
practices. They said this was because most clubs had at least three 90 minute practices a week and matches were only 80 minutes long. A spokesperson from one of the clubs said they have fully trained CPR personnel at all their practices. He said there was also a trauma board on the premises and they ensured that personnel who were already BokSmart, updated their training every two years. Another local club’s spokesman said they had first-aid personnel at all practices, as well as at all games. He believed that all clubs should have first-aid staff at practices and those that did not should get people trained and ask them to attend all practices. He said at the very least that they should have direct contact with doctors or with a qualified St John’s First Aid staff member.

6 DistrictMail Minister ‘extremely concerned’ about H’berg Hospital
Nuus News
12 Maart, 2015
There is still no commencement date or site for a planned new government hospital in the Helderberg. The provincial health department confirmed that it plans to replace Helderberg Hospital with a new, larger facility, but could again not provide any further information or a timeline for the planned facility. “The decision on the exact location and the start of construction for the new hospital has not been finalised. It is dependent on in-
puts from other directorates and departments such as the Department of Transport and Public Works,” says spokesperson Siviwe Gwarube. Last week DistrictMail reported on the department’s interim plans to bring relief to the facility (“Hospital upgrade on the cards”, 5 March). The department announced plans to add an extra 14-bed overflow observation ward to the hospital, while it also believes the opening of the under-construction Community Day Centre
(CDC) in Asanda Village, Nomzamo, will offer some relief. Following DistrictMail’s media query to the department, which included outcry messages from the community, provincial health minister Dr Nomafrench Mbombo conducted an unannounced visit to the hospital on Wednesday 4 March, to evaluate the conditions at the facility firsthand. “I am extremely concerned about the state of this health facility and the quality of the service our clients are receiving due to massive challenges that we face
PALM TYRE
at the hospital,” she said in a statement. “Presently, Helderberg Hospital does not have the capacity for the large patient load that it is handling.” Furthermore, Mbombo again labelled the planned new hospital as a “long-term” plan, despite it also carrying the tag of a “priority to the department”. “This is why many measures are being put in place to meet the growing demands of the people in the area.” In the statement, Mbombo sets
out the department’s short-, medium- and long-term goals for effective health care in the Helderberg. This included the construction of a new Community Health Centre to replace the Strand CDC and Gustrouw CDC, as these facilities are “not appropriately capacitated to deal with service pressures in the respective communities”. “Incremental changes will be implemented while we work towards our grand goal of supplying a regional hospital, a new CDC and CHC,” she concluded.

FOCUS ON STREET PEOPLE: Local organisations and churches joined forces during a workshop this past Saturday to find solutions and workable measures to assist street people in the Helderberg. Andy Loughton, chairperson of the Local Network of Care (LNOC) says the need for more shelters in the Helderberg, as well as an assessment centre were highlighted during discussions. The problem of drugs and alcohol that are freely available on the streets was also discussed.

BEGUNSTIGDES RAADOP
Mense wag ure vir Sassageld DALEEN FOUCHÉ Talle pensioentrekkers was verlede Donderdag raadop gewag vir hul South African Social Security Agency- (Sassa-) uitbetalings by die Strand-stadsaal. Die oggend teen 10:30 met DistriksPos se besoek aan dié betaalpunt was daar talle pensioentrekkers en begunstigdes van ’n gestremdheidstoelaag wat reeds sedert 08:00 gewag het vir die uitbetalings. Talle mense het aan die DistriksPos vertel dat daar geen geld in hul Sassa-kaart betaal is nie en hulle moes dus na die betaalpunt gaan om hul geld te kry. Siena Jooste, wat aan erge artritis ly, het vroegoggend al by die saal gewag vir haar uitbetaling en gekla dat sy nie veel langer met haar opgeswelde enkels kon wag nie. Een egpaar het al die pad van Brackenfell gereis om hul uitbetaling in die Strand te kom haal, nadat daar geen geld by die uitbetalingspunt in Brackenfell was nie. Die man is toe aangesê om Strand toe te kom. Volgens ’n
vrou van Eersterivier het dieselfde haar oorgekom en sy het sedert 07:30 gewag. “As ek nie betaal word nie, moet ek terugstap.” Andrea van Wyk van Gordonsbaai sê die Sassa-amptenare het toe teen 13:00 se kant by die saal opgedaag, maar baie mense is eers omstreeks 16:00 uitbetaal. Jooste sê sy is baie dankbaar vir haar pensioengeld, maar meen tog die amptenare kan hulle ten minste net op die hoogte hou van wat gebeur. “Ons word koud en afsydig behandel.” Shivani Wahab, Sassa-woordvoerder, sê sy is nie bewus van probleme met die inbetaling van geld na begunstigdes se Sassa-kaarte nie. Wahab sê indien daar wel sulke gevalle is, moet die mense dit by Sassa aanmeld met hul identiteitsnommers. Wahab sê alle Sassa-kliënte is teen 14:36 by die Strand-stadsaal betaal. “Die personeel was ook by die Strand-gemeenskapsaal op 6 Maart.” Volgens Wahab sal daar vir die April-uitbetalings bykomende geld bestel word om te verseker dat alle kliënte betaal word.
Botsing in Hoofweg eis motorfietsryer se lewe Die Strand-polisie het ’n saak van strafbare manslag geopen ná ’n motorfietsryer (65) Dinsdag in ’n ongeluk in Hoofweg gesterf het. Volgens konst. Mbulelo Mafuna, Strandpolisiewoordvoerder, het die ongeluk omstreeks 15:15 op die hoek van Hoofweg en Arnoldstraat gebeur.
Mafuna sê dat ’n Datsun-motor regs vanaf Hoofweg in ’n parkeerterrein van ’n supermark gedraai het. Volgens Mafuna het die motorfiets wat ook in Hoofweg gery het na bewering ’n ander voertuig verbygesteek en teen die Datsun gebots. Die motorfietsryer het op die toneel gesterf.

Decision pending on SW CBD A decision on the proposed Somerset West Special Ratings Area (SRA) will be made at the end of this month when the City of Cape Town’s mayoral committee meets. The proposal entails that commercial property owners pay additional rates that will be managed by an organisation to improve safety in the CBD, and to clean and beautify this area. The application for the Somerset West SRA was submitted in October last year after 50%-plus-one property owners gave their consent for the application to be submitted.
The proposed business plan for the Somerset West SRA suggests three armed guards to patrol the CBD on foot and one vehicle with two armed guards. In addition to this, the budget makes provision to hire a Law Enforcement officer through the City of Cape Town’s Rent a Cop initiative. The proposed budget for the first year is R2,1 million, with R1,2 million to be spent on security. The steering committee has already spent R70 000 to get the application off the ground, said Magel Grové, who serves on the committee.

Te ondersteuning van Marli van Breda op haar pad na herstelling, het lede van die Somerset 1 Facebookblad Saterdagoggend buite Mediclinic Vergelegen bymekaargekom en die heining voor die hospitaal, waar Van Breda herstel het, versier.

Van Breda-dossier nou by NVG
RAYMOND WILLEMSE Die nasionale vervolgingsgesag (NVG) besin nog of iemand vir die Van Bredamoorde in hegtenis geneem gaan word. Die polisie-ondersoekspan het die bylmoorde-dossier by die NVG ingedien. Eric Ntabazalila, woordvoerder van die NVG, het gesê hulle is besig om die dossier noukeurig deur te gaan. “Ons kan nie sê wanneer ons ’n besluit gaan maak nie.” Intussen is Marli van Breda (16), uit die Mediclinic Vergelegen ontslaan.
Marli (16) en haar gesin is op 27 Januarie met ’n byl in hul huis aangeval. Marli se ma Teresa, pa, Martin en broer Rudi (22), se lyke is op 27 Januarie in hul huis in die spog-gholflandgoed De Zalze gevind. Sy het ernstige kopbeserings opgedoen en haar jonger broer, Henri (20) is lig beseer. Hy woon tans by familie. Adv. Martin Coetzee, Marli se regsverteenwoordiger, het gesê onder die omstandighede gaan dit goed met Marli. Sy is Vrydag uit die hospitaal ontslaan. “Sy het tot so ’n mate herstel dat haar voortgesette hospitalisering nie verder nodig is nie. Sy is gevolglik dadelik ná
haar ontslag uit die hospitaal by ’n rehabiliteringsfasiliteit opgeneem.” Hy het gesê hy is nie bewus daarvan dat Marli ’n getuieverklaring aan die polisie kon aflê nie. “Haar terapeutiese span kan nie enige aanduiding gee vir hoe lank haar rehabilitasie sal duur nie. Laastens kan ek nie anders om te meld dat Marli se familie groot waardering het vir die ongekende steun van die publiek aan Marli en talle wense vir spoedige beterskap. Dit bly egter die versoek dat Marli die geleentheid gegun word om ongesteurd haar rehabilitasie te voltooi.”

Mail Angs heers waar bendes handuit ruk Die gemeenskap van Sir Lowry’s Pass lewe die afgelope paar weke in angs. Misdaad in die gemeenskap het vanaf die begin van die jaar die hoogte ingeskiet. Dit blyk dat dwelmmisbruik, dwelmhandel en bende-aktiwiteit nou handuit geruk het. Misdaad in Sir Lowry’s Pass is tans ’n brandpunt vir plaaslike wetstoepassingsagentskappe. Gerugte dat plaaslike polisiebeamptes vrees – nadat een van hul eie onlangs in dié gebied koelbloedig doodgeskiet is – om in die gemeenskap te werk, help ook nie om die groeiende probleem te help oplos nie. Die polisie erken dat misdaad in die gebied sedert Januarie aan die toeneem is, en dat bende-aktiwiteite die oorsaak vir die aansienlike styging is. Maar wat doen hulle om hierdie groeiende probleem so gou moontlik hok te slaan? Is daar ’n konstruktiewe plan om die brieke aan te draai? Indien wel, is dit nou die tyd om die plan in werking te stel en te keer dat die probleem groter word. Talle gemeenskappe in die Kaapse-skiereiland, soos Manenberg, Hanover Park en Lavender Hill, lewe reeds vir dekades in die greep van bendegeweld. Daar bepaal bendelede die doen en late van almal in die res van die gemeenskap. As dit nie gekeer word nie, sal Sir Lowry’s Pass vinnig in hierdie gemeenskap se voetstappe volg. Owerhede sal gou moet ingryp om hierdie moontlike realiteit te voorkom.
Ban all butt-throwers Can we start a “no butt out of window” campaign? I took a photo of a smoker’s car in Main Road, just before the Scholtz Road turn-off, at 07:47 on Tuesday 3 March. The driver threw a burning cigarette butt out of the window – this while we could see the clouds of smoke over Muizenberg!
GERDA WEBSITE COMMENT
Community must take hands to root out taxis’ noise pollution I’m a resident of Macassar and the noise made by the taxis with their so-called music is a real bone of contention. I have, on numerous occasions, called on the police, but their response was not satisfying. I even contacted the City of Cape Town’s Law Enforcement, but this too was to no avail. Noise pollution is not something authorities can be bothered with. With complete arrogance, the taxi drivers are terrorising our
communities and bullying us to desperation. My other concern relates to the children these “gentlemen of the roads” are transporting. Already our schools are struggling with discipline and poor performances from learners. I wonder how many of our children have to go for regular hearing tests. Can they really hear what the teachers are teaching after many years of exposure to this deafening
People who make life worth living I would like to thank the staff of the Total Service Centre in Main Road, between Philwest and Lion’s Square, for helping me when I was in great difficulty and very ill last month. Throughout the night they all went beyond the requirements of their job descriptions, although they were very busy. With their friendliness, it is easy to see why Bonjour is so popular.
Also, a special “thank you” to the manager of Helderberg Crime Watch: you stopped on your way home from work at 22:00 and offered all possible assistance. You men are the salt of the earth and I will always remember the kindness of your caring behaviour. Well done, Somerset West!

and ruinous noise? I’m calling on the assistance of the community; maybe the principals and the provincial Department of Education will do something about this terrible scourge of our peaceful communities. These drivers, who call themselves a service to the public, are in many ways more of a hindrance. The few good ones must be exonerated from this complaint.

Good Samaritan returns lost wallet Thank you to the honest lady who found my wallet in a trolley outside Checkers in Somerset West on Thursday 19 February between 09:00 and 10:00. I highly appreciate it. Also, a big “thank you” to the floor manager who informed me that it had been found.

Klop op die skouer van Letitia Bloemiste in die Strand Na vele teleurstellings in die verlede met blomme wat telefonies bestel is,het my dogter in Pretoria, Letitia Bloemiste in Koop-sentrum, Strand, ontdek. Sy het vir my die mooiste ruiker gemaak en afgelewer op my ver-
jaarsdag. Voorwaar ’n groot verrassing,wat my vir drie weke baie vreugde verskaf het om daarna te kyk. Dit is baie duidelik dat die ruiker met groot sorg gemaak en afgerond is, asook die feit dat daar nie op die
blomme bespaar is nie. ’n Groot verskeidenheid rose, lelies, krisante en ander vars blomme is gebruik. Baie dankie en baie geluk,Letitia,vir julle puik diens. Dit word opreg waardeer.

Hierdie bouers kan ons met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel Ons het verlede jaar ons aftreehuis laat bou. Hindley-bouers was ons eerste keuse omdat hulle sulke goeie werk gelewer het 37 jaar gelede, toe hulle ons huis in die Strand gebou het. James Hindley en die argitek, Ge-
orge Newman, saam met hulle hardwerkende werkspan en goeie subkontrakteurs het ons weereens beindruk met hulle uitstekende vakmanskap, betroubaarheid en eerlikheid. Die eindproduk is iets waarop ons
sowel as hulle baie trots is. Daarom kan ons Hindley-bouers met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel vir enige persoon wat beplan om te laat bou. Hindley-bouers gaan voort met julle goeie werk.

Sê jou sê ) Helderberg DBV, laat die veghond asseblief uitsit. Ons dogtertjie is op twee-jarige ouderdom deur een aan die arm gebyt. Dieselfde hond het my pa ’n jaar later van agter aangeval en amper doodgebyt. Baie liefde en aandag vat nie die onvoorspelbaarheid van hierdie soort basterhond weg nie. Geen hond wat ’n mens aanval, mag ’n tweede kans kry nie. B Smit, Somerset-Wes ) Kan die sogenaamde regering nie die doodstraf terug bring vir die mense wat vermoor word nie? Laat die skuldiges ook voel. ) It is with shock and sadness that I saw on the news that one of our chopper pilots, Willem Marais, died fighting the Cape Point fire, during a forced landing. I saluted the fire fighting chopper pilots in this column on 26 February, never once thinking that for one of the pilots it would be the last salute. Trevor Hawley, Gordon’s Bay ) Please remove the bogus disabled beggar at the Victoria Road/ N2 intersection. He almost caused an accident when he pretended to fall next to my car. I do not find him amusing. Nelia ) To the man driving the blue Jeep in Broadway Road, Strand at 17:50 on Friday 6 March: stop using the earth as your ashtray. Fires ablaze and you proceed? ) Gary Harrison, from Afrigas in Strand, thank you for the excellent service. Soraya ) Mev. Voges, ek wil net sê dat ek dink ons is bedoel vir mekaar. Ek wil weet of jy my van, Jordaan wil aanneem. Lief jou.

Stabbed in Hell Run zone ) It is so sad that so many people’s lives are in danger on our national roads. Why can’t the police arrest people walking on our national roads? To my knowledge, people are not supposed to walk on the national roads. There are also people picking up workers on the N2 near Somerset West and nothing is being done to stop it. Why can’t they pick up their workers on the roads leading to the N2? William Moses ) I agree, William Moses. Anyone walking on a national road should be picked up by the police. Our beautiful country is lawless, because our government is lawless. And no, another meeting about the situation will not help; action will. Trudy Davies Accident recorded on a dash camera ) Well now, we can clearly see that someone took a gap that was misjudged. We have our gopro stand in both cars. You see some interesting things. Wendy Strauss
) Total disregard for laws of road. Hopefully no one was injured. Jen Douglas ) Where can one buy the dash camera? June Smith ) We have one; bought it at Top CCTV. It is mostly used to track our business vehicles’ comings and goings. It has GPS as well. Claudette Groenenstein ) I use one since I was in court for a traffic case. Now the judge can choose to believe what others say or see and hear what really happened. Costa Dirk ) Yes, I would definitely install it. Many times the videos of these dash cameras reveal valuable footage, especially in accidents and criminal activities. Naomi Sinden ) It would have helped me tremendously with my accident on Wednesday 4 March. A taxi skipped a stop street and smashed into my car, occupied by my daughter and I. It should be made law for taxis to have dash cameras permanently running and checked by traffic officers weekly. Annemarie Pretorius ) Dit was my dogter wat betrokke was in hierdie ongeluk. Sy is nie beseer nie, maar het geweldig aan na-skok gely. Hierdie video is vir ons baie belangrik; dit help met die herstel van haar voertuig. Johlene Cloete

Apology and correction In the article “Armed robbers hit watch store” (DistrictMail, 5 March), it was stated that a group of armed robbers targeted the Vodacom Store in Helderberg

Werkloosheidversekeringsfonds (WVF) Werk Vir Jou. Jy en jou werkgewer moet elke maand 1% van jou verdienste aan die Werkloosheidsversekeringsfonds (WVF) betaal. Dit word jou WV bydrae genoem. Hoekom is daar ’n WVF ? Die regering/staat het die WVF tot stand gebring, om te voorsien in die noodsaaklike lewensbenodighede van werkers wat hul werk en inkomste verloor , as gevolg van aflegging, siekte, bevalling, afsterwe van die werker of aanneming van ’n kind. Moet alle werkers bydra tot die WVF ? Alle werkers, insluitende huiswerkers, plaaswerkers, seisoenale werkers, nie-Suid-Afrikaanse burgers, tydelike werkers en geleentheidswerkers moet bydra as hulle meer as 24 uur per maand werk. Staatsdienswerkers en kommissiewerkers is egter uitgesluit. Hoe weet die WVF dat bydraes ontvang word ? Ingevolge die WV Wet 63 van 2001, is dit die WV Fonds se verantwoordelikheid om ’n databasis op te bou van alle werkgewers en werknemers in hul diens. Al die indiensnemingsbesonderhede van die werkers en werkgewers moet op die databasis gestoor word (ID-nommer, naam, verdienste en dienstydperk). Dit is die werkgewers se verantwoordelikheid om enige verandering in die werker(s) se diensbesonderhede, te verklaar deur middel van die UI 19. Verandering sluit in nuwe aanstellings, afleggings, kraam-, siekte- en aannemingsverlof en salaris aanpassings en verandering in ure van werk. Watter tipe voordele dek die WV Fonds? 1. Werkloosheidsvoordele Werkers sal gedek wees indien hul diens beëindig is as gevolg van die verstryking van hul kontrak, personeelvermindering, vroeë aftrede (indien dit deur die werkgewer geïnisieer is), konstruktiewe ontslag (bewys van dispuut na KVBA), insolvensie van besigheid, likwidasie, sluiting van besigheid of dood van die werkgewer. Voordele word betaal vanaf die datum van aansoek. Voordele word betaal volgens die aantal kredietdae afhangende van hoe lank die bydraer gewerk het. Die maksimum wat die WV Fonds voordele betaal is 238 dae. Kredietdae word bereken en opgebou teen 1 dag se voordele (kredietdag) vir elke 6 dae gewerk as bydraer. 2. Siektevoordele Jy kan eis indien jy nie kan werk nie, as gevolg van ’n siektetoestand wat vir langer as 14 dae aanhou en nie salaris van jou werkgewer ontvang nie. Indien die werkgewer jou ’n gedeelte van die salaris betaal, sal die WV-Fonds die verskil betaal, maar nie meer as 100% van jou salaris nie. Jou diens moet as gevolg van siekte beëindig wees om te kwalifiseer vir voordele. 3. Kraamvoordele Verwagtende moeders word betaal vir ’n maksimum van 121 dae. In die geval van ’n miskraam word slegs vir ’n tydperk van 42 dae betaal. Kraamvoordele en werkloosheidsvoordele is geskei van mekaar. Indien jy kraamvoordele eis en steeds daarna werkloos bly, mag jy werkloosheidsvoordele eis. 4.Aannemingsvoordele Dit word betaal as jy ’n baba onder die ouderdom van 2 jaar aanneem. Aanneming moet deur die Kinderhof geskied en ’n wettige aanneming wees. ’n Aannemingsbevel moet uitgereik wees. Jy kwalifiseer mits jy verlof neem om na die kind om te sien, die werkgewer jou nie betaal nie of ’n gedeelte van jou verdienste betaal. Slegs een van die aanneemouers kwalifiseer. 5.Afhanklikheidsvoordele Die oorlewende man of vrou is geregtig op die voordele. In die geval van ‘n “lewensmaat” (nie wettig getroud nie), moet daar bewys van saamwoon en deel van gemeenskaplike bates en laste wees. Indien die lewensmaat nie ’n aansoek binne 6 maande ingedien het nie, mag ’n afhanklike kind onder 21 jaar, of as die afhanklike kind 25 jaar en jonger is en studeer, aansoek doen. Die kind moet heeltemal of hoofsaaklik van die oorlede bydraer afhanklik was. Aansoek moet binne 14 dae na die verstryking van 6 maande na afsterwe gedoen word.
Wanneer is ’n bydraer nie geregtig op voordele nie ? 6. Indien die bydraer vergoeding van die Vergoedingskommissaris vir ’n werksverwante besering of siekte ontvang, wat lei tot tydelike of permanente ongeskiktheid. 7. Indien die bydraer voordele ontvang volgens ’n werkloosheidskema of fonds ingestel ingevolge die Wet op Arbeidsverhoudinge of deur ’n Bedingingsraad. 8. Indien die bydraer uit eie vrye wil uit diens tree (bedanking of dros). 9. Indien die bydraer nie binne 6 maande na diensbeiendiging om voordele aansoek doen nie. 10. Indien die bydraer deur die WF Kommissaris geskors is om voordele te ontvang as gevolg van die onwettige ontvangs van voordele terwyl hy/ sy indiens was. Indien die bydraer bedrog gepleeg het met WV fondse. In sulke gevalle kan ’n bydraer vir tot 5 jaar verhoed word om enige voordele te kry. Hoe word voordele bereken? Die WV Fonds betaal slegs ’n maksimum van 238 dae. Om 238 krediet dae te ontvang moet die bydraer vir ten minste 4 jaar ononderbroke indiens wees as bydraer. Voordele word betaal teen ’n glyskaal. Bydraers wat min verdien word teen 60% van hul verdienste betaal. Verdienste plafon (tans R14 872 )word van tyd to tyd deur die Fonds bepaal. Werkers wie se besoldiging die plafon te bowe gaan se bydraes word bepaal asof hulle R 14 872 verdien. Hoë inkomstegroepe wat meer as R14 872 per maand verdien, se voordele sal teen R14 872 bereken word, teen 38%. Bedrog/ Misbruik van WV fondse/ Risiko. Dit is ’n strafregtelike oortreding indien enige iemand homself/haarself skuldig maak aan die volgende: • Verdienste wat doelbewus meer aangedui word met die opset om bedrog te pleeg. • Wanvoorstelling deur applikante deurdat vals identiteitsdokumente te gebruik en vals eise in te stel. • Vervalsing van handtekeninge. • Foutiewe en valse dienstydperke aanbring, om vir voordele te kwalifiseer. • Bydraers wat hul eie UI 19 verklarings voltooi. • Werkgewers wat besonderhede verskaf wat nie feitlik korrek is nie • Verandering van die rede van diensbeeindiging ten einde voordele te ontvang. • Dit word as bedrog beskou wanneer ’n voordeeltrekker na diens terugkeer of nuwe werk aanvaar, maar nie die WV Fonds daarvan in kennis stel nie en steeds voordele ontvang. • Soos deur die WV wet/ regulasies bepaal, kan ’n persoon skuldig aan bovermelde, verhoed word om voordele te ontvang vir ’n tydperk van tot op 5 jaar en selfs strafregtelik aangekla word.

Die Hoërskool Strand se krieketspan nadat hulle die krieketinterskole teen HHH verlede week gewen het.
HS wen interskole-trofee Die Hoërskool Strand (HS) was die oorwinnaars in die krieket-interskole teen Hoërskool Hottentots Holland (HHH). Die skole het verlede Vrydag weer kragte op die krieketveld gemeet en HS het ook ’n jarelange droogte verbreek en vir die eerste keer sedert 2009 die wedstryd gewen en met 98 lopies geseëvier. Op 72/6 het die Strand wankelrig gelyk, maar danksy ’n kapteinsbeurt van 75 lopies deur Peter de Klerk het die Strand 185 lopies aangeteken.Hierop het HHH met 87 lopies geantwoord. Rewayne Viljoen met 5/19 en Xander Barnard met 3/0 het uitstekend geboul. Xander Barnard het HHH se laaste drie kolwers met driekuns.
Die o. 19B HS-span het op dramatiese wyse met drie lopies geseëvier danksy André Viviers se uitstekende vangskoot. Die o. 15A-span het ewe eens HHH verniel. Wiehann Meyer het 74 nie uit nie aangeteken en met 4/30 uitstekend geboul. Keenan Beckitt het met 53 lopies ook geskitter. Die o. 15B-span het met 109 lopies gewen. Alhoewel albei die o. 14-spanne van die Strand verloor het, het dit aan entoesiasme nie ontbreek nie. Die o. 17-krieketspan het ook verloor, maar het baie goeie rekenskap van hulself gegee. Die nuwe krieketkamer van HS is ook dié dag deur Jurie Gouws, die voorsitter van die krieketkomitee, ingewy.

Macassar dig deep to win penultimate two-day clash Macassar secured a three-wicket win over Sherwood-Manenberg at the Macassar Oval on Saturday. The home team started day two of this first division D match with seven wickets needed and a deficit of 29 runs. Sherwood-Manenberg started the day on 23/3 and lost their fourth wicket on 43 after 15 overs, when J Fortuin made the first breakthrough for the day. Wickets then fell at regular intervals and Sherwood-Manenberg were struggling on 112/8 after 40 overs. They were all out for 151 after 48 overs just before lunch. The best bowlers for Macassar were J Fortuin 21-5-40, C Adams 6-1-11, S Levendal 4-1-31, N Swartland 6-1-18. Macassar then needed 157 to win in 77 overs.
They started their innings after lunch and lost their first wicket in the second over, with only eight runs on the board. T Kemp (23) and Q Bowman (10) put together a third-wicket partnership of 31 runs before both were dismissed with the score on 39/3 after 11 overs. Macassar then lost three more wickets in quick succession. With the score on 58/6 and requiring 99 runs to win, J Fortuin and S Jantjies stepped to the crease. They attacked the visitors’ spin bowlers, scoring a 90run partnership for the seventh wicket partnership, to take the score to 147/7 in 46 overs, before Fortuin was out for 65 runs. S Jantjies (34*) and A Roberts (3*) took Macassar past the target required. Macassar Cricket Club’s final two-day game is away to Kensington.

Helderberg’s seconds trounce SWCC Helderberg’s second team convincingly beat their neighbours, Somerset West by 8 wickets in a two-day match at Helderzicht sports grounds. Helderberg won the toss and decided to bowl first and restricted Somerset West to 187/8 in their allotted 60 overs. The best bowlers for Helderberg were Dexter Hindley with 2/24 and Adrian van Reenen with 3/78. Helderberg came in to bat and scored 227/7 in their 60 overs. Outstanding performances from opening batsman Thomas Smith (82) and Johan Cyster (35) laid the foundation. They were well supported by Mario Bougaard
The victorious HHCC team who clinched the Western Province 1 Division D title after beating Elsies-Northlink by nine wickets in their twoday match on Saturday 7 March.

HHCC wins 1 Division D league title by a mile Hottentots Holland Cricket Club (HHCC) clinched the Western Province 1 Division D trophy on Saturday when they beat Elsies-Northlink by nine wickets in their two-day match. HHCC batted first on day one and scored 227 and Elsies-Northlink were all out for 111 and had to follow on. Elsies-Northlink showed some fighting resistance on day two but the HHCC bowlers were again too good for them and bowled them out for 166. The pick of the HH bowlers were: A Temoor 3-67, E Pedro 2-11, G Moller 2-18 and W Martin 2-20. This left HHCC with a target of 51 runs needed to win the match and league honours.
They secured the victory in the 12th over with only one wicket down. The top scoring batsmen were R Van Reenen (24*) and E Pedro 22. This was another outstanding performance by the hard-working and dedicated HHCC first team, who were undefeated in eight twoday league games (winning six of these by an innings and two by nine wickets), a milestone which the Strand cricket community can indeed be proud of. All cricket lovers are urged to support their teams on Sunday 22 March when HHCC meet local rivals Somerset West at Radloff Park to battle it out for the WPCA first Division D 50over league title.

(23) and Damian Jooste (*23). This gave Helderberg a first innings lead of 40 runs, and valuable first innings bonus points. In the visitors’ second innings, the middle order suffered a huge collapse after lunch and were bowled out for 195. Johan Cyster took 4 wickets in 4 overs and was the main reason for the collapse. This inspired the home side, who needed 155 runs for a victory. Smith (59), stepped up to the crease and was well supported by Shane Fredericks (44*) and Cyster (44*). Helderberg soon reached their target with 8 wickets standing.
Great kob catches reported near Agulhas During the lull in the South Easterly wind on Sunday morning a number of local “die hards”, fishing off Blake’s Beach, resorted to spinning after noticing a flock of sterretjies diving onto bait fish close to the beach. Most of the activity was between the Strand swimming pool and in front of Welgelegen flats. Pieter Brink and his wife Hillary, both members of False Bay Angling Club, led the way. Pieter caught and released six leervis of ± 73 cm, while Hillary beached and released a leerie of 83 cm. All the leervis were foul-hooked in the dorsal fin. A number of other anglers also conversed on the couple, also catching and releasing some size leer fish. A few locals fishing on the reefs caught smaller kob and some size galjoen. Leonard Engelke reported that the local kabouter team had a clean sweep while fishing in the five species competition hosted by Ashton Fishing Club in the Struisbaai area. Around 200 anglers took part. The kabouter club located a sheltered stretch of coast between Brandfontein and Agulhas where they caught 30 kob with a total weight of 77 kg (6 anglers). Frans Marais had best bag of 22 kg followed by Joe le Roux with 18 kg. Third was Leonard Engelke with 16 kg. He also had the biggest fish, which weighed in at 11,8 kg. Unfortunately, due to rough water, very few anglers from other clubs weighed in fish. J.D. van der Merwe won the Gordon’s Bay Rock and Surf Angling Club competition, also held on Saturday, with two galjoen and two dassie. Second was Hugo Krynauw with a kob of 4 kg and third Christo Botha with a kob of 3,75 kg.
FISH ’N CHIRPS
Art Ridgway
While shore angling from “die walle” at Struisbaai, Alan du Plessis reported a number of anglers having good catches of kob. He tagged and released 5 kob between 2 kg and 6 kg using fresh chokka. During the weekend the South Easter kept most of the small boats off the water. There were however a few kob taken by two kayakers fishing close to the Poort. Gus Rautman said that very few boats from the Simon’s Town side of False Bay could go to sea. He and his crew busied themselves catching plenty of mackerel just outside the harbour while fishing on “Kiora”. There were also reports of shoals of mackerel inside Cape Town docks and also at the waterfront entrance. It appears this is the first time that mackerel have been reported in the entrance of the waterfront. Due to the sudden changes of water temperature there is very little bubble weed and other sea weed in the shallows and on our beaches. There is however a substantial amount of red bait, which has been washed ashore all along the coast. This should be collected and stored and preserved for use now that the galjoen season is once again open. For all your reel repairs and services, contact Art on 021 854 3831. Send your fishing news and photos to bjridgway@telkomsa.net.

Barracudas Berge verloor eerste lift the trophy vriendskaplike stryd Somerset West Cricket Club’s juniors had a mixed bag of results this past weekend. The u.10s travelled to Durbanville with two sides to defend the Nightbash title. The SW Barracudas then went on to win the tournament and the individual prizes. Aidan Norris was the bowler of the tournament and Jean-Pierre Mans won both batsman and all-rounder of the tournament. On Saturday the u.10 Gremlins defeated Edgemead by 58 runs. Michael Royden-Turner top scored with 29 and took 2-2-3. The u.10 Goblins played the Hottentots Holland’s u.11s and lost by a big margin. The u.11 Vipers beat Sunningdale by 7 wickets. The u.11 Mamba’s beat Peninsula by 5 runs. The u.12 Falcons lost by 9 wickets against Kenridge Primary. The u.13s first knocked the Herzlia Combined Schools XI out of the WPCA u.13 knock-out competition then drew with Durbanville in a timed match on Saturday. They face Curro this week in the quarter finals. The u.15s defeated Khayelitsha by 94 runs.
Helderberg het hul eerste vriendskaplike wedstryd teen Kraaifontein op Kraaifontein se rugbydag met 19-39 verloor. Die voordeel van ’n sterk wind is nooit gebruik nie. Die tuisspan het eerste punte aangeteken met ’n verdoelde drie. Berge het vinnig reageer met ’n puik drie deur linkervleuel Lukas Muller, wat deur heelagter Gavern Skippers verdoel is. Kraaifontein het nog ’n verdoelde drie net voor halftyd aangeteken om 14-7 voor te loop. Na die pouse was dit duidelik dat Berge se voorspelers in alle fases tweede viool gespeel het, maar die agterlyn het met min balbesit gevaarlik gelyk. Die tuisspan het weer ’n verdoelde drie aangeteken voordat Berge se vaskopstut, Morne de Villiers, ’n drie in die hoek gedruk het (21-12). Kraai het toe met ’n doelskop geslaag (24-12) gevolg deur ’n onverdoelde drie en nog ’n doelskop om die voortou met 32-12 te neem. Helderberg se nuwe agtsteman, Alvino Anthony, het sy waarde be-
wys met ’n pragdrie wat deur Gavern Skippers verdoel is om die puntetelling na 32-19 te verander. Maar Kraaifontein het die laaste sê gehad met ’n vyfde drie wat verdoel is om die finale puntestand tot 39-19 te verander. Die tweede span het baie belowend vertoon met hul 38-14 oorwinning oor Kraaie se tweede span. Die driedrukkers was Ronaldo Bell, Jacques Ludick, Thomas Fortuin (2) en Ryan Solomons (2). Losskakel Manie Darries het met vier doelskoppe geslaag. Ander tellings: Crusaders 60 - Goodwood derde span 0, Helderberg o. 20A 10 - Kraaie o. 21A 12. Hierdie Saterdag speel al die Helderberg-spanne tuis teen Kuilsrivier in hul tweede ronde vriendskaplike wedstryde. Die program is as volg: 13:00 - Helderberg Crusaders vs Kuilsrivier derde span; 14:15 - Helderberg o. 20A vs Kuilsrivier o. 20A; 15:45 - Helderberg II vs Kuilsrivier A en om 17:00 speel Helderberg I vs Kuilsrivier I. Daar is ook ’n moontlikheid van ’n o. 20B-wedstryd tussen die twee klubs, wat as dit bevestig is, om 13:00 op die B-veld plaas sal vind.

Macassar stumps Lulu Boys N
ewly promoted Western Province Super League A side, St. Georges (Lulu Boys) hosted neighbours Macassar (MC Boys) at the Gustrouw Sports Grounds on Saturday 7 March. This was the Lulu Boys’ first warm-up match of their 2015 campaign. They lost 22-20. A last minute penalty conversion from the young, yet experienced Garth de Bruin, resulted in victory for the visitors. St. George’s sensational winger, Michael la
Meyer, scored the first try of the match. Morne Adams missed the conversion. Possession exchanged hands a few times during the first 20 minutes until Macassar’s veteran flank, Owen Adams, scored a well worked try after a few phases. De Bruin added the extras to give Macassar a 7-5 lead. It was Adam’s educated boot that saw the Lulu boys claim back the lead with a well-directed drop goal. It was however La Meyer who had the final say in the first half, with his second try. The conversion was wide, bring the half-time score to 13-7.
The home-side struck back shortly after the break with a converted try from newly recruited inside centre, Ashwill van Heerden. Scrumhalf Kerwin Felton made a successful conversion. At this point it seemed like the Lulu Boys had the match pretty much sealed up. With the wind at their backs, the MC boys hit the rucks hard, captain Burnodick Julius leading from the front.

the breakdown, dominating the contact, this however proved to be futile as Julius went over for his side’s third try. De Bruin added the extras, 20-19. It was De Bruin’s boot that pushed the score in the favour of Macassar as he slotted a late penalty to win the match for the visitors. The game was started with a sombre atmosphere as the news of the tragic accident that claimed two players and one spectator from Franschoek RFC. St. Georges host Tygerberg in their first league game on 11 April, while Macassar will host Kuilsriver at home.
