Leopard attacks tourist in Gaub pass in the safety of his overlander Floris Steenkamp

A German tourist was seriously injured in an attacked by a leopard in the Gaub River pass early on Thursday morning.

The victim, identified as 61-year old Hardy Specker, was due for surgery at the Welwitschia Private Hospital late yesterday due to the serious nature of the injuries he sustained on his scalp, face and neck.

Specker’s life partner, Petra Windmeisser (60) explained at 01:00 on Thursday she and Specker was asleep in their camper truck when they heard something at the

window. The window was open and Specker decided to close it.

The next moment I heard a loud bang against the truck and my husband was screaming. She could see how he is pulled

out the window and instinctively she grabbed him by the feet and pulled him back in the truck.

“He was bleeding profusely. I tried to stop the bleeding and Continues on page 2

Fight against corruption not only Government's Floris Steenkamp problem Locker President Hage Geingob on Wednesday in his fourth State of the Nation Address (SoNa) recognised the pivotal role vom Government plays in Namibia's ongoing fight against corruption, but assured citizens there is visible progress to root out this social evil. The Head of State also urged Government Hocker

ministers, the media and the citizenry to do their part responsibly to root out corruption.

SoNa provides the Head of State of Namibia each year the opportunity to provide the Namibian Parliament and the nation it represents a snapshot of the nation's wellbeing when it comes to what the President termed “the thematic pillars”. These pillars are: effective governance and service delivery, economic advancement, social progression, infrastructure development and international relations and cooperation. This was President Geingob's fourth SoNa, following his first address of this kind on 21 April 2015.

On the issue of corruption, which in effect manifests in all the thematic pillars President Geingob quoted Transparency International which in 2017 ranked Namibia 53 out of 176 countries Continues on page 2

at the same time tried to make a phone call from our satellite phone to emergency service, but there was no reception”, explained a visibly and audibly shocked Windmeisser.

Several stressful hours followed for Specker and Windmeisser. He was lying in the truck, losing blood rapidly. They couldn’t open the door of the truck to go outside, as they could still hear the leopard walking on the roof of the vehicle.

Windmeisser then started to blow the truck’s horn and flashing the lights in order to scare away the leopard and a desperate attempt for someone to come and help.

Miraculously a passer-by’s attention was drawn at around 07:00. The emergency services was notified who arrived at the scene without delay and transported the badly injured Specker to Walvis Bay. In the couple’s darkest hour there was some rays of hope yesterday. They are from Lake of Constance in Germany and was befriended there with Mrs. Alexandra Bauer who moved to Swakopmund a year ago. Bauer came to Walvis Bay yesterday to support the couple. ·Specker and Windmeisser are seasoned travelers in Southern Africa and has been returning here frequently for the past ten years.

globally and fifth in Africa as the least corrupt country.

The President remarked in this instance that a new Africa is on the march and that Namibia and the continent is “winning the fight against corruption”.

But, warned the President the fight against corruption also asks for the increased involvement of other variables in the fight against corruption. The Head of State singled out government ministers, the media and the citizenry in this regard.

With regard to government ministers: the President urged ministers to respond when allegations of corruption are made against them. He added he and his wife, Madam Monica Geingos in the past, and as recently as a few days ago, are frequently accused of corrupt activities. “I continue to respond to queries from the media and expect ministers to do the same”, he said.

On the issue of the media, President Geingob said despite more than 60 corruption cases investigated and handed over to the Prosecutor-General by the Anti Corruption some media continues to advocate little if any is done to curb corruption in Namibia. The President urged the media to commit to objectivity in this regard by reporting on successes against corruption and to promote mechanisms put in place to combat corruption.

On the citizenry, President said ordinary Namibians can join the fight by reporting corruption. He said there are mechanisms in place to protect whistleblowers. The President made specific reference to whistleblowers protection and witness protection legislation that was passed in 2017 and soon to be implemented.

He also made reference to the new Public Procurement Act of 2016. The Act is the latest weapon in Namibia's arsenal to combat corruption at Government procurement level. Since the Act came into force in 2017, eleven instances of tender irregularities were picked up. Ten are under investigation by the Central Procurement Board and one is already in court for prosecution.

Namport's Drydock Hosts The Rt Margo Tug Boat Since last week, the 28 meter long RT Margo Tug boat has been docked at the EBH dry dock for maintenance and repair purposes. The highly manoeuvrable Tug has three propellers with 60 tons bollard pull which allows the tug boat to be steered sideways.

The vessel is normally operated in Limbe, Cameron for terminal work and will be docked here for the next two weeks. Speaking to the Fleet Superintendent from Kotug, Mr Jasper Visser said “the reason we choose to come to Namibia is because of the safe environment the country has to offer as well as the availability of space”.

The Port of Walvis Bay enjoys a reputation of efficient operations, competitive pricing, secure facilities and rapid turnaround of vessels with no congestion. The 10 year old tug which was built in Singapore is owned by Kotug International from Rotterdam, Netherlands.

5 arrested for copper wire theft Five men were arrested on Wednesday morning with stolen copper wire in an area close to the Democratic Resettlement Community (DRC) in Swakopmund where new residential plots are serviced.

On the right: The suspects allepictures of the power gedly stole the kiosk affected and copper wire and the spot where it was also three copper water taps from the removed premises of Gererai Electric Company.

They took the opportunity when guards on the premises changed shifts.

The electrical contractor is contracted to construct a power kiosk and main electrical cabling which have to be handed over to ErongoRED once the development is completed.

The suspects, Eddy Ewald (23), Jason Hoeseb (25), Perus Daniel (18), Moses Ndaipanda (24) and a minor boy of seventeen were arrested with 1 bundle of copper wire and 3 copper taps.

The suspects set the copper wire on fire, in an attempt to melt the plastic wire casing and lay bare the copper.

According to Detective Inspector Daniel Gurirab of Namibian Police, the copper taps were recovered intact, but the copper wire was damaged and rendered useless.

The value of the copper was set at N$41 274.

The investigation into the incident will now determine who is the rightful owner of the stolen items and whether additional charges [malicious damage to property] will be added. ¡ The theft of copper is a crime which affects everyone. It sabotages service delivery to the nation in that as a result people suffer power outages, communication breakdowns and it slows down development progress.

Tackle substance abuse Young Namibian Entrepreneur making at the Coast a difference Rudi Bowe

Rudi Bowe

Several young people who include entrepreneur, Andrew Angula from AJ's Auto Styling, Pupkewitz Nissan Walvis Bay, Slam-Dunk Body Works, Bay Area Car Group and Noreldo Swartz teamed up to make a difference for vulnerable children in Walvis Bay.

Deputy Mayor of Walvis Bay, Penelope Martin and Workshop Facilitator Tony Jarman with Workshop attendees Women's Action for Development (WAD) recently hosted an antisubstance abuse and gender based violence (GBV) workshop in Walvis Bay. Although a disappointing 15 participants attended only, it nonetheless was a learning curve for those who attended.

Some of the topics covered were anger and stress management, the twelve steps to breaking a habit, the Combating of Rape Act, the socio-economic impact of substance abuse and possible solutions to gender based violence.

The Deputy Mayor of Walvis Bay, Clr. Penelope Martin, said at the occasion society's behaviour needs to be looked at when tackling GBV, and that residents of Walvis Bay face numerous social evils like drug- and alcohol abuse as well as GBV. “It is time we take responsibility for our actions. We cannot expect government and the police to do everything. We need to stand up and do something”, said Clr. Martin.

The state of a home is a reflection of the state of a society. Clr. Martin encouraged everyone to assume a meaningful role in shaping their communities.

“Let's not forget that the children is watching us and model our behaviour.”

Martin added everybody has to take introspection and ask the following two absolute critical questions: ·What behaviours are being displayed by our fathers, brothers and sons towards the women in their lives? ·How are our mothers, sisters and daughters able to survive in their own homes, where they are supposed to feel most safe?”

Facilitator, Tony Jarman, explained the main aim of the workshop is to try and make a difference in Walvis Bay. Those who attended made use of the opportunity to take a pledge never to entertain substance abuse of any kind in their lives.

Jarman leads a group of people who regularly conducts workshops to teach people against substance abuse and to help addicted people to find help.

These companies with their staff are organisers of three Charity Breakfast Runs, during which people can donate items of their choice which can benefit children at the Sunshine Kids Centre.

The first of three Runs was held recently. Through people of the drag races goodies to the value of N$2 500 were collected.

Then cam the Charity Breakfast Run which involved motor- and bike enthusiasts of all walks of life.

They departed from the Dunes Mall to Afrodite Beach for a photo shoot and a most enjoyable social event. Last Thursday the donation was

handed over to the Sunshine Kids Centre.

Sunshine Kids Centre Director, Elsa Murangi, expressed her gratitude and said that it is amazing to see that young people also doing their part in their community and she hope that other young people will follow suit.

The Deputy Mayor, Clr. Penelope Martin, said on behalf of the Municipality of Walvis Bay and the Walvis Bay Child and Family Centre, that they are thankful and that it warms her heart to see young people blessing others and supporting fellow community members.

NB SCAM ALERT!!!

All efforts now abandoned to salvage stricken Japanese tuna fishing vessel For centuries since the dawn of seafaring, the Namibian coast has seen its fair share of shipwrecks. The latest one now is the Japanese tuna long liner fishing vessel Fukuseki Maru.Fukuseki Maru ran aground in the Cape Cross area in the night hours of 21/22 March this year with 80 tons of frozen tuna aboard. Despite several attempts to re-float her, with the assistance of the power salvage tug SA Amandla, the entire salvage has now been abandoned.

Mr Paul van der Merwe of Walvis Bay Diving and Launch confirmed this yesterday and said the next focus now would be a wreck recovery. “It is an unfortunate situation. We must be realistic, however, that the vessel cannot be re-floated again”, he said. The salvage operations to date is estimated to have already cost nearly N$50 million. It was explained the Department of Maritime Affairs will now issue a wreck recovery notice to the vessel owners for insurance purposes. A whole new process will now start to get a wreck recovery operation in motion.

Mariette Brand sniff! dit is so sad! ek sou haar maar daar gelos het, sy het tog maar haar laaste 'crew' gedra tot daar, en mense kan haar prag bekyk van alle kante af! History made with a little bit of sadness at the end!

Neville Fourie Good, they were probably running in shore at night dragging net's and ducking back out to deep water before they got caught, but karma caught them and now they cannot get away.

Gregory Baumgarten Neville, I agree with you bro. That's what happens in angolan waters.

Monolito Du Toit Maybe you should look up the words long liner. Seriously people do a little bit of research before hitting your name with a plank Sharn Leary 50 million, i some how dont think so and for what i may ask as the ship has not moved? The cost of the vessel is about that or less !

Chris Wildblood What was the captain thinking? surely the Namibian coast is easy enough to miss. We all know it's there and we're not in the 18th century.

Franz Vernon Muller What were they doing there in the first place, catching our kabeljou or

what?

Otto Bertolini How much is this vessel worth if refloating has run to 50 million? Need to find me a Japanese partner Retha Booysen van Rensburg Meer van die Chinese gemors moet op d rotse loop! Ons "goewerment" se oë is bot toe vir die gevare van hul vriendskap met China.

Hannes Swanepoel A new jewel in the skeletons coast shipwreck crown.

Chrys Sky'wker Sikosi Snr Economically strategic plan, insurance will cover. Next topic please.

Überall wimmelt es von aufgeregten, fröhlichen Kindern und Jugendlichen, die mit Begeisterung einen bunten Basar gestalteten. Nicht zu vergessen sind selbstverständlich auch die Eltern und Lehrkräfte mit ihrem Beitrag zu einem Fest, das seit 20 Jahren jährlich gefeiert wird, nämlich seit den Anfängen dieser renommierten Schule, die von Elternhand aufgebaut wurde.

Swakopmund (sk) Sowohl Inländer als auch Küstenbewohner dürfen sich auf Musik des Walzerkönigs, Wienerisches, Operetten- und Salonmusik freuen.

Am 21. April tritt das KüstenFrauen-Ensemble zum 25. Jubiläum der “Hörerinitiative” im Ballsaal des ehemaligen Hotels Grüner Kranz, jetzt „Imagine Games Cafe“, im Grüner-Kranz-Komplex in der McAdamstraße im südlichen Industrieviertel in Windhoek auf. Kleidung: Formell oder

Abend-Dirndl.

Das Trio hatte bereits zum 20. Jubiläum der Privataktionsgruppe zugunsten des deutschen Radiosenders erfolgreich aufgespielt, und auch dieser elegante Abend mit einem österreichischen DreiGänge-Menü verspricht gute Unterhaltung und Genuss.

Beginn ist um 19 Uhr , und die Karten zu N$ 350,- pro Person können im Juweliergeschäft Herrle & Herma im SANLAM-Zentrum in der Independence Avenue in Wind-

hoek oder in Swakopmund am Ankerplatz erworben werden.

Damit die Küstenbewohner nicht zu kurz kommen, wird am Montag, den 30. April, zum Vollmond, Wienerisches und mehr um 17h30 Uhr bei einem Glas Wein und Snacks im Innenhof von Otto Günther angeboten.

Karten zu N$ 80,- sind bei Otto Günther oder an der Abendkasse erhältlich. Es wäre ratsam, sich in beiden Fällen vorher Karten zu besorgen, damit ein Sitzplatz garantiert ist.

Worte der Woche Willos Geiriseb und Valerik Hilbert, beide in der Klasse 7D, schienen ihren Spaß am Kuchenstand zu haben, der eine wahre Augenweide war und die Geschmackszellen ordentlich zum Tröpfeln brachten.

7 Schülern im Deutschen Pfadfinderheim begann, hat sich heute zu einer stattlichen Institution für etwa 400 Schulpflichtige gemausert.

In einem Gespräch mit Schulleiter Hein Daiber, der seit nunmehr zwei Jahren die Zügel der PSS in der Hand hält, und seiner Frau Metti in der Kaffeestube des Basars ergab sich das Bild einer Ausbildungsstätte, die immer wieder auf harmonischem Wege das Ziel entspannter und gleichzeitig motivierender Bildung anzustreben versucht.

Der ehemalige Personalmanager und Unternehmensberater scheint als Fädenzieher der privaten Ausbildungs-

stätte seine Berufung gefunden zu haben.

Das 20. Jubiläum der Privatschule Swakopmund wird nicht im großen Stile gefeiert, da die PSS im Juni bereits in einem Festakt zur PASCH-Schule ernannt wird. PASCH steht für die Initiative „Schulen: Partner der Zukunft“, die weltweit mehr als 1800 Schulen vernetzt, an denen Deutsch einen besonders hohen Stellenwert hat.

Dafür ist 2019 - zum 21. Bestehensjahr und zur “Volljährigkeit” dieser Institution - ein stilvolles Event geplant.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste Du sollst nicht töten Locker vom Hocker

Der 1959 in Kochel am See geborene deutsche Schriftsteller eines Syriers und einer Schlesierin, Friedrich Ani, hat diese Kurzgeschichte verfasst, die hier in zwei Episoden wiedergegeben wird Folge 2 Ist das eine Wahrheit? Erklärt der apokalyptische Reiter im Kopf des 17-jährigen Felix seine Untaten? Andere Jugendliche spielen ebenso Computer, rasen auf dem Weg zum Erwachsenwerden wieder und wieder innerlich gegen die Wand und kommen dennoch unversehrt aus ihrem Zimmer und erkennen die Unterschiede. In der Untersuchungshaft begann Felix, in der Bibel zu lesen.

Einen Computer vermisste er nicht, er schrieb sanftmütige Briefe an seine Familie.

“Auf meine Stirn tritt kaltes Metall. / Spinnen suchen mein Herz. / Es ist NDein Licht, das in meinem Mund erlöscht,” dichtete Trakl. Ist das eine Wahrheit: Aus Verzweiflung verabreicht eine 31-jährige Mutter in einem Dorf in SchleswigHolstein ihren drei bis neun Jahre alten Kindern Tabletten und erstickt sie, nachdem sie eingeschlafen sind, mit einer Plastiktüte. Fünf Jungen: Jonas, Justin, Ronan, Liam, Aidan. Im 450Seelen-Dorf kannte man sie alle, man wusste: Liam war mit einem Herzfehler zur Welt gekommen und Autist.

Steffi, seine Mutter, versucht, ihm beizustehen, wo es nur ging, gern hätte sie genügend Geld für eine Delfintherapie zusammengebracht, unermüdlich sammelte sie Informationen übers Internet. Unermüdlich?

Niemand ist unermüdlich, schon gar nicht eine Mutter, die fünf Jungen versorgen muss, tagein, tagaus.

Du sollst nicht töten.

Du sollst nicht töten.

Edler Adler mit gewaltigem Schrei

Das erlöschende Licht im Mund einer Mutter.

Wie dunkel muss es sein, um das eigene Kind mit einer Plastiktüte zu ersticken?

Das erste Kind, dann das zweite. Dann das dritte. Dann den kranken Liam, der so sehr in sich eingekapselt lebte, dass er vielleicht den Kummer, der seine Mutter auffraß wie ein Krebs, gar nicht bemerkte. Irrglaube. Jedes Kind nimmt den Kummer der ganzen Welt wahr, das wusste Steffi genau, auch wenn es später hieß, sie sei psychisch lrank und schuldunfähig. Und so erstickte sie den armen Liam und noch das fünfte Kind, dann rief sie einen Arzt an und bekannte ihre Schuld.

Nach Auffassung des Untersuchungsrichters stellte Steffi “eine Gefahr für die Allgemeinheit” dar, deswegen wurde sie in einer psychiatrischen Anstalt untergebracht.

Aus dem Feuer und der Wolke und dem Dunkel sprach der Herr zu Moses mit großer Stimme und schrieb auf eine steinerne Tafel: DU SOLLST NICHT TÖTEN. Drei Babys tötete eine 28-Jährige in einem kleinen sächsischen Dorf, eines nach dem anderen, immer sofort nach der Geburt, niemand hatte bemerkt, dass sie schwanger war, nicht einmal ihr Freund. Ist das zu glauben? Kann das eine Wahrheit sein? “Soziale Verwahrlosung”, “Depersonalisation”.

Wähnen wir uns in der Obhut solcher Erklärungen in Sicherheit?

Schuf Gott das Hormon Oxytocin, das der

medizinischen Forschung zufolge die Bindungsfähigkeit der Mutter zu ihrem Kind gewährleistet? Vergisst Gott das Hormon bei manchen Müttern, oder hat er es bei ihnen falsch dosiert? Und handeln diese Frauen dann nicht nur gegen ihre Kinder, sondern vor allem gegen sich selbst? Ist das, was sie planen und schließlich in die Tat umsetzen, eine Art erweiterter Selbstmord - mit dem Unterschied zum klassischen Modell, dass sie dabei selbst am Leben bleiben? Warum auch immer: weil ihre Kräfte nicht mehr reichen? Weil sie wissen, sie würden den Rest, die Selbstabschaffung, später erledigen, in der Stille einer Arrestzelle, am Gipfelpunkt der Vereinsamung?

Der Kindsmord, sagt die Literaturwissenschaftlerin Elisabeth Bronfen, sei eine “Chiffre dafür, was es bedeutet, radikal verlassen zu sein, der Welt entrückt, nichts mehr da. Die Zerstörung des Kindes heißt, jegliche Bindung zu dieser Welt zu kappen.” Wenn das zutrifft, was bleibt dann einem Mörder, außer sich selbst umzubringen, um die elementare Vereinsamung ein für alle Mal zu überwinden?

Du sollst nicht töten.

In der Geschichte des Christentums war auch der Selbstmord eine Zeit lang geächtet, eine Todsünde, die Leichen von Selbstmördern wurden geschunden, verbrannt, auf keinem Gottesacker begraben.

Heute ist der Selbstmord keine Schande, er ist ein Tabu - und

doch ein tägliches Ereignis, überall auf der Welt. Einsamkeit gebiert Täter, Hass gebiert Täter, Dummheit gebiert Täter, blinder Gehorsam gebiert Täter. Wir erheben die Hand gegen uns selbst, wenn wir vor lauter Schatten in uns keine Luft mehr kriegen; gegen den nervigen Nachbarn, der zufällig unseren Weg kreuzt; gegen den dunkelhäutigen Fremden, dem wir endlich volltrunken heimleuchten; gegen den unbekannten Soldaten, der angeblich unser Feind ist.

DU SOLLST NICHT TÖTEN. Warum steht da nicht: Du DARFST nicht töten? Weil Gott von Anbeginn an um unser armseliges Ringen wusste, um unsere mickrigen Strategien der Selbstbehauptung, um unser Scheitern?

Angesichts der Welt und derer, die sie Tag für Tag sehenden Auges und klaren Verstandes Stein um Stein zerstören, erscheint das sechste Gebot in manchen Nächten wie ein hämisches Echo des Schweigens Gottes im Brunnen des Hains.

“Und ich sah die schwarze Hölle in meinem Herzen.” Georg Trakl, “Offenbahrung und Untergang” ENDE

Liebe Küstenleser!

Hierzulande wird er häufig als Fischadler bezeichnet, dieser majestätische Greifvogel aus der Familie der Habichtartigen, der meist in den Kronen hoher Bäume nahe an Gewässern sitzt.

Es handelt sich jedoch um einen Schreiseeadler (haliaeetus vocifer). Seeadler sind wesentlich größer als Fischadler (Pandion

Der falsche Name hat sich eingebürgert, weil der Schreiseeadler im Englischen als Fish Eagle und im Afrikaansen als visarend bekannt ist.

Vergleichen wir diese Zahl einmal mit den aktuell 7,5 Milliarden Menschen, die diesen Erdball zerquetschen. Übrigens, bei Säugetieren und vielen Vögeln sind häufig die Männchen größer als die Weibchen. Bei Raubvögeln, Reptilien und Gliederfüßern hingegen ist es meist umgekehrt. Das Schrei-

Competition tightens as teams fight for top spots The eighth round of the Bank Windhoek National Indoor Hockey League took place over the weekend in Windhoek. As expected, competition was tough as teams fought for top honours with only three weeks remaining until the league ends.

As things stand, Mad Maroons dominate the Men's Premier League with a ten point difference ahead of Saints who are only two points clear of University of Namibia (UNAM) in third place. In the Women's League, UNAM have increased their lead with two points at the top of the log with Saints in second place.

Men's Premier League Saints 2 took on Deutscher Turn und Sportverein (DTS). After suffering a defeat in the previous round, DTS came out all guns blazing and defeated a shell-shocked Saints. The final score was 9-0 in favour of DTS. Darren Roberts, Percy Barthram and Leonard Fick each scored for DTS. In a club versus club battle, Windhoek Old Boys' (WOBSC) Mad Maroons (MM) and Burgundy Bullets (BB), fought for bragging rights within the club.

MM had to win with a bonus point to keep up the pressure on Saints 1, who is currently placed second on the log. The day belonged to MM as they won the encounter 5-2. Bucko Bartlett and Siyabonga Martins both scored a couple a pieces for Mad Maroons.

Teams returned for epic

matches on Saturday evening. The first match was between DTS and MM. The latter needed a good performance against one of its greatest rivals and ended the first half drawn at 3-3.

In a tightly contested affair, MM emerged victorious towards the end of the game. The final score was 6-5 to Mad Maroons.

Siyabonga Martins was in top form and scored five goals for MM. BDO Wanderers faced UNAM for a true test of character match as both clubs wanted to show their intent of winning the league. It was a gruelling affair, which UNAM eventually won 4-2. Four different UNAM players registered their names on the score sheet.

WOBSC Burgundy Bullets faced Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) in what became an interesting battle between the two sides. The game was tough and showed the major improvement of NUST attributed to the NUST Hockey Programme over the last couple of years. It ended in a 2-2 stalemate.

UNAM was the next student team that took on WOBSC BB. UNAM was

NOTICES

way too strong for the Bullets and comfortably scored the bonus point vic - tory winning 6-1.

UNAM's Sashin Chioza scored twice.

BDO Wanderers took on NUST in a match that proved to be a one-sided affair. BDO Wanderers completely overran the NUST defence and won the match 13-1. BDO's Owen Hatten scored five times.

On Sunday morning, the two educational institution rivals, UNAM and NUST battled it out for supremacy. UNAM was expected to easily win the encounter but NUST were stubborn on the day which made UNAM work harder for a bonus point victory. They eventually won 6-2.

Women's Premiere League Competition was fierce in the Women's Premier League as none of the teams wanted to taste defeat. UNAM kept up the pace with Saints as they beat a stubborn NUST side who would not relinquish the bonus point without a fight.

UNAM could only manage to score four goals which was a single goal shy to qualify for a bonus point. The final score was 4-0 in favour of UNAM. The other game saw WOBSC take on DTS. WOBSC had all their world cup players and big guns back for the weekend's game and the results showed this as they won comfortably with a score of 8-0.

Men's First League BDO Wanderers played NUST and won the game 5-0. In the other game, NUST also struggled against DTS and lost 7-0.

Men's Second League UNAM proved to be too strong for Gurus whom they defeated 5-0. DTS beat WOBSC Young Guns 4-2. DTS later dropped momentum as they lost 6-3 against new comers 062-Okahandja (OKH).

Women's First League UNAM played the Masters but their experience showed as Masters won 32. BDO Wanderers faced United and won 2-1. In the Masters league, Saints took on Coastal and claimed a 5-2 victory.

The next games for the Premier, First and Second Leagues will take place this coming weekend at the Wanderers and DTS indoor hockey fields in Windhoek and The Dome in Swakopmund.

Met Liefde van Wenshan Chen jou Vrou, Familie en gesin Happy Birthday to our Guardian Angel – Winston Groenewald Today, 67 years ago a boy was born to stand tall amongst a crowd whom made us proud.

Gladiators out of 2018 AFCON Qualifiers

The Brave Gladiators lost 2-0 to Zimbabwe's Mighty Warriors on Sunday at the Rufaro Stadium in Harare to bow out of the Africa Women Cup of Nations qualifiers 4-0 on aggregate.

It was a game of two halves with the visiting side putting pressure on the home side to try and get an early goal as Spain-based Zenatha Coleman caused some problems for the Mighty Warriors' defence.

But the second half belonged to Zimbabwe who came back a more determined side to grab two goals through Emmaculate Msipa in the 74th minute and Mavis Chirandu in the 85th minute.

Namibia could have taken the lead as early as the 7th minute when Colemam's effort from a free-kick went inches wide. Coleman continued to haunt the Mighty Warriors but Chido Dzingirai was up to the task.

Namibia's coach Brian Isaacs conceded defeat and said it was always going to be difficult for them as they were trailing Zimbabwe by two goals from the first leg.

"When we arrived here we had a mountain to climb because in the first leg we lost 2-0 and today again we created a lot of chances but we failed to convert them.

Zimbabwe got a few chances and they converted them.

"Overall my team has performed well, in Namibia there is no women's league, so they are not playing in a women's league so it was difficult for me to prepare the team. But overall our performance was excellent; it's just that we failed to convert our chances.

So good lucky to Zimbabwe," Isaacs said.

Namibian Cricket history has been rewritten as Namibia has qualified for the CSA Sunfoil 3 day Cup Final. The Namibian senior men's team will play against KwaZulu-Natal in a bid to be crowed CSA Sunfoil champions.

Namibia has finished at the top of pool B, ahead of Free State, KZN Inland, Easterns, Eastern Province, Boland and Gauteng.

This was a superb achievement as the team has earned us the right to play KwaZulu-Natal, who topped pool A. The team is at Kingsmead, Durban for the final with the first day that started yesterday.

The final will take place over 4 days from 12 - 15 April. The playing times are as follows: First 09:00 – 11:30 Second 12:10 – 14:25 third 14:45 – 17:00.

Canoe Combat explodes once SFC VIKINGS vs ERA again at Dolphin School

The SFC Vikings Rugby Club will play their 3rdrugby match of the season against the Walvis Bay based team Erongo Rugby Academy this coming Saturday 14th April 2018 at their home grounds at the SFC sporting grounds.

Eileen van der Schyff

The Canoe Combat event of this pristine school, attracted large crowds on Saturday, 7 April as it was again time for their annual Canoe Combat festival. This event has proven to be successful every single year, however this year turned out to be an even bigger success.

Sixteen teams battled it out on the water, with ten paddlers per team, of which two are women.

Paricipants are mainly students of the school and old students. Out of the top four, the Wave Blazers of Fox Fishing were once again unbeatable. The second place went to Hangana, and the third place was taken by the Vasbyters of Namib Desert 4x4 club. The best dressed team was Super League of Allan Hartung, and the team with the best spirit was the Vikings of Lotter Kroch/Steward Planing.

The story of how this event came into existence is bittersweet. Five years ago, The Dolphin School's Incredible Canoe Combat evolved from what started out as “The Dragon Boat Races”. It changed to Canoes when the Dragon Boats were destroyed in an accident on their way to Walvisbay.

Dolphin Schools would like to thank all their participants, who's support is crucial to the success of this event and a special thanks to Buco, the main sponsor of this event.

The SFC Vikings won their first game against Walvis Bay Rugby Club 33 – 0 and lost their second match against Dolphins Rugby Club 9 – 16 Dolphins managed to score a winning try in the last few minutes of the game. The SFC Vikings has been training intensely these last 3 weeks in preparation for their game against ERA and is hoping for a win on

Saturday on their home ground.

The SFC Vikings would like to invite all rugby lovers and supporters to come and support these two clubs on Saturday at the SFC sports grounds.

Game kicks off at 15:00 and promises to be a great game of rugby.

For any further details regarding the SFC Vikings Rugby Club or the game on Saturday, please con-

tact Mr Jaco Barnard at 081 284 7556 or Mr Morne Visser at 081 1445 957 or like us on Facebook to get updates on games or the club.

Gate entry is N$20 per person and N$10 per car.
