#TIKIBALL TOURNAMENT

The whole idea of the Tikiball Tournament began on random Monday (20 March 2023) when a hashtag #Happymajitamonday on Facebook was making its rounds Alongside that hashtag, we suggested playin tikiball, inviting diski lovers to join in

Later that day, six teams gathered to play The stree were bustling with people, and the sound of the ball hitting the dustbin filled the air with happiness Immediately after that event, we were approached to host another diski day Raven & Kgotso then discuss when the next one would be. As we were discussing Max Setlhogome and Dunca Brown gave us the organizing a Tikiball tournament, for which we ar grateful to this day

We introduced the idea to people through social and the response was impressive We then formu the format for it, as it's unusual for Tikiball to be expanded into a tournament set for the 24th of June 2023 On that rs and players flocked to the streets in dn't anticipate, and it became a y We were warming up more and more hosting multiple Tikiball Tournaments as r it was growing With the increasing higher expectations, so we had to ospitality for both the players and the e wanted to ensure the environment nd spacious enough to accommodate

Our objective is to rebrand and introduce a new platform for Tikiball to everyone without diverting away from its cultural roots

We were asked again to host, but this time it was for netball in the street A whole netball tournament in the street! To our knowledge, it had never been done before, but we took on the challenge nonetheless The 9th of August 2023 was the best date for it, and we created the impossible a whole street netball tournament It wasn't easy, as we also wanted to incorporate the issue of gender-based violence against women & children in our country Primarily, it was to celebrate Women's Day and make our participating women feel special and honored Credit has to be given to the netball coaches of Juice Back (Noloda Mabaso) and Inter Miami (Dumisani Qala) respectively for helping us brainstorm the whole idea and make it a reality

We aspire to continuously progress and improve, iming to make this beautiful project more than just a ame but also an impact in the townships We are Tsemnatetsakasi, striving to host Tikiball ournaments nationwide
