MUTUAL STATION
Illicit deals trackedNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
The Kensington Neighbourhood Watchis mobilising against drug dealing atMutual train station.
This as pupils fromnearby schools are tar-geted by the illicit trade and criminals be-come increasingly brazen, Kensington Com-munity Police ForumspokespersonLorenzoSadan says.“Drug peddlers are becoming so auda-
cious that actually ‘catching them in the act’is no longer so difficult. The only snag is tohave police officers on standby when it hap-pens,” he says.Drugs are often sold to pupils while on
theirway to school, says communityworkerKevin Alexander.“I became aware of this last year when I
was asked to assist with random drug test-ing at two primary schools and a high schoolin the area. Pupils told us they bought thedagga and ‘dagga muffins’ at the station, oreven on the train, on their way to school,”he says.If pupils attend school under the influence
of drugs, they often become dysfunctionaland disruptive.“They may also be tempted to resort to
dealing in drugs at school for cash or to re-turn favours. This will jeopardise theirschooling careers and place great strain onteachers having to deal with deviant pu-pils,” he says.“This is a huge problem as many pupils
travel to Mutual, Woltemade, Kentemadeand Century City stations to attend schoolsin Kensington, Factreton and Pinelands.”Metrorail has responded to complaints in
collaboration with the Kensington police.Metrorail spokesperson Riana Scott says:
“Regular special actions ensure that arrestsaremade virtually everymonth. SinceAprilthis year our protection services have ar-rested 21 people at Mutual for being in pos-session of illegal substances – this is exclud-ing any police arrests.“We encourage the public to report any
suspicious activity so we can continue toclamp down on offenders.”At the time of going to print, Kensington
police had not commented.The cost ofMetrorail’s regional static,mo-
bile and undercover resources amounts tomore than R12m amonth across all stations.Resources are allocated according to priori-ties determined at joint weekly meetings be-tweenMetrorail Protection Services and thepolice. “Unless communities work with thepolice on sustainable solutions, crimewouldsimply shift from trains and stations to sur-rounding neighbourhoods or vice versa,”says Scott.“It remains vital that neighbourhood
watches, CPFs and ratepayers’ associationswork together to ensure that criminal activi-
ty is curtailed and offenders arrested.”This is why the CPF and neighbourhood
watch is tackling the illicit trade, Sadanpoints out.“We are trying to mobilise our local Ken-
sington NeighbourhoodWatch to patrol andmonitor the scene. They will in turn reportback tome, and Iwill then assume the neces-sary actions with Law Enforcement, theRailway Police and our local police,” hesays.Pupils need to be protected,which calls for
involvement of the parents and school,Sadan believes.“The drug selling to pupils can be reduced
by the schools’ teachers also joiningus at thestation at peak times, so they would be ableto recognise the pupils and take necessarysteps. We appeal to members of the commu-nity who are not working, and have sometime to spare, to join us at the station,” hesays.Alexander adds that parents and teachers
need to be made fully aware of these deal-ings.“They need to be aware of the signs and
symptoms of drug use, and the various drugparaphernalia,” he says.V For more information on neighbourhood watch patrols, contact Sadan on 072 126 2441

New four-way plan for Roodebloem RoadNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
Traffic calming measures are to be placedin Roodebloem Road.This after various concerns raised by res-
idents regarding safety on the road and atthe intersection of Salisbury Street, saysward councillor Brett Herron.A four-way stop will now be implemented
at this intersection.“Residents have complained about vehi-
cles travelling at high speed along Roode-bloem Road and the dangerous sight linesfor motorists seeking to exit from eitherside of Salisbury Street. Given the accidentstatistics, Roodebloem Road is regarded asbeing a high accident zone,” he says.A study of the accident data for this road
revealed there was a total of 517 accidents
recorded along Roodebloem Road over thepast five years ofwhich 26 resulted inminorinjuries, 489 caused no harm and two led toserious injury.Roodebloem Road is a Class 3 Secondary
Arterial road and serves as an importantlink between Victoria Road and NelsonMandela Boulevard. Roodebloem Road alsoforms part of an Integrated Rapid Transitroute, with four MyCiTi bus stops locatedalong the road.“As per the engineering assessment and
the presence of public amenities, it is con-clusive that traffic calming measures arewarranted along this road,” Herron says.“However, taking into account the fact
that Roodebloem Road is a public transportroute and has a gradient of more than 8%means that traffic calming in the form ofraised measures is not appropriate.”
The four-way stop will be implemented assoon as possible, he says. “I am hopeful thisintervention will go a long way towardsmaking our use of Roodebloem Road saferwhile at the same time ensuring the roadcontinues to fulfil its function as an impor-tant arterial road and public transportroute.”Upper Woodstock Residents’ Association
chairperson Grant Quixley says: “We wel-come the announcement that concretemeasures are to be implemented to addressthis dangerous intersection.”However, he warns, a four-way stop may
result in congestion. “Other measures, par-ticularly a traffic circle, would have beenpreferable.We nevertheless understand theengineering difficulties in this regard andwill need to wait and see how the four-waystop works in practice.”

Creativity gets new homeNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
An old warehouse in Woodstock will nowhave creativity flowing through everyroom.
TheBeachRoadbuilding in Industrial Parkhas been given a new lease on life and trans-formed into a creative hub for musicians andphotographers.Platinum Studios provides photography,
recording and rehearsal studios at affordablerates to assist up-and-coming artists launch
their careers.Entrepreneur Brinn Tomes and his part-
ner, recording and mixing engineer Ger-hard Grobler, identified this gap in themarket and have extensively researchedthe design of the studios.Tomes says: “Oneof the biggest challeng-
es artists face are that there aren’t enoughvenues to support our ever-growing musicindustry, making it hard for musicians toearn a decent living –most having day jobsto sustain their dreams – while making ithard to afford decent rehearsal and record-ing facilities.”Richard Harris, manager for Natasha
Meister, says even though studio equip-ment is more accessible than ever before,finding a producerwho iswilling to do pre-production or record a single or even ademo CD is not easy and can be an expen-sive exercise.“As an up-and-coming artist, you need a
product just like anyone else. The coststops many young artists from recording.If an affordable space was available I thinkit could be a great way to build the localmusic scene,” he says.Jesse Jordan band member JP Crouch
says artists who do not have the backingof a record company need a space wherethey can produce industry standardmusicat affordable rates.“A big challenge is that up-and-coming
artists are facedwith is being able to affordthe right recording equipment and then ac-quiring the “know-how” to use it for quali-ty production.Finding suitable space is very expensive
and often requires one to have capital topay upfront for premises. Therefore manypeople end up starting home studios andunless theyknowhow to get good soundingproduction, they always get recordingsthat aren’t up to standard,” he says.
Making use of home equipment reducesthe quality of the artist’s sound, but manymusicians struggle to afford the fees of re-cording studios, according to Tomes.“Quality, affordable rehearsal space for
music or photography allows businesses tokeep their overheads low and build theirbusiness within our business and with oursupport,” he says.Tomes explains the studio will also be
used to scout for local talent.
“Next year, we will be having our own tal-ent auditions where we will help launchsome careers as part of our business strate-gy,” he says.As an added bonus, the studios will also
cater for photographers, according toTomes.“For the first time in South Africa, the in-
dustries have a chance to cross over andwork together in the same space withoutlimitations,” he concludes.

Properties supposedly earmarked forrestitution appear to be on the mar-ket, according to Walmer Estate resi-
dents.This as “For Sale” signs have popped up
on vacant lots and land surveying activityhas been noted.Walmer Estate Residents’ Community
chairpersonMoosa Sydow says the proper-ties were set aside by provincial govern-ment to be awarded in land restitutionclaims.Hemaintains any change to the status of
public land needs to be advertised for pub-lic comment.“We want to know if there has been any
change in the status of the property, thatis as for restitution purposes, and anychange needs to be advertised to the pub-lic,” he says.Provincial government had not respond-
ed to queries at the time of going to print.Walmer Estate Civic Association hous-
ing steering committee chairperson Her-schell Hoffmann says he has not witnessedany “For Sale” signs.He confirms there are three sites in Up-
perCambridge Streetwhichhave been ear-marked for restitution, along with otherproperties in the neighbourhood.He says property and the restitution
process is a “sensitive” topic inWalmerEs-tate.Chester Road resident Shafique Ahmed
has an outstanding claim on the property
he lives in.“My father owned the house but was dis-
posed through the GroupAreas Act.We re-mained in the house but had to pay rentfrom 1979, for over 30 years,” he says.He has noted a For Sale sign on the va-
cant lot next to his home.“There are a number of vacant lots in the
area that have been earmarked for restitu-tion, including the one next door. Howev-er, there was never a claim put in for it.I think now that claims lodgement processhas re-opened, the government may be try-ing to sell off these plots,” he says.In 2009, the forum raised concerns over
the Department of Local Government andHousing’s stated intent to offer pockets ofits land as alternatives for restitution pur-poses. Sydow claimed the process made no
allowance for public participation on pub-lic land.The Princess Street Hall and properties
in Cambridge Street and Worcester Roadwere to be offered to the Land Claims Com-mission for restitution.At the time, Sydow demanded the claims
process involving this land be temporarilyhalted, and that Walmer Estate residentsbe granted an opportunity to state theirconcerns regarding the various propertiesthatmay still be able to serve the communi-ty.Several years later, Sydow claims, there
is still a lack of transparency regarding theproperties. “In all our enquiries to theprovince,we’vebeengiven the runaround.We are prepared to take public action ifneeded,” he says.

System zooms in on highwayA new average speed over distance camerasystem will go live in the coming weeks, tocompel motorists to slow down on NelsonMandela Boulevard.The City of Cape Town has installed an
average speed over distance system in itslatest attempt to address speeding and pro-mote road safety.The cameras will become operational
later thismonth andwillmeasure the speedof all vehicles travelling inbound and out-bound between the bottom of Nelson Man-dela Boulevard and the N2 and M3.The installation of these systems is pro-
vided for in the City’s contract with Syntelland is no capital cost to the City.There will be three sets of cameras that
will cover all of the incoming and outgoinglanes. The first set is on the footbridge overNelson Mandela Boulevard in the vicinityof District Six; the second set is on theMainRoad bridge over Settlers Way; and thethird set is on the footbridge at Mostert’s
Mill on the M3.The systemuses specialised cameras that
accurately record each and every vehiclepassing through their area. The camerasread the number plate of the vehicle andrecord the location, date and exact time.Another camera further along does exactlythe same. The data and images of the vehi-cles are encrypted and transmitted to acomputer. The two sets of data are thenmatched and, if the same vehicle passesboth cameras, the time taken for thevehicleto cover the distance is calculated. A fineis generated for vehicles that travel the dis-tance in a shorter time than that allowedby the speed limit, explains Mayoral Com-mittee member for Safety and Security JPSmith.“Too often, motorists travel at speeds in
excess of the legal limit in this area and wehope that the introduction of the systemwill result in greater compliance with thelaw,” he says.SLOW YOUR ROLL: Average speed over distance cameras have been installed. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

CITY HALL
NICOLE MCCAIN@nickymccain
Bringing City Hall back to life.This is the aim of a plan by council
to install façade lighting at the historiclandmark.The concept of lighting the façade came
about from extensive international re-search, says Mayoral Committee memberfor Tourism, Events and Economic Develop-ment Gareth Bloor.This indicated the highly positive trend in
many cities where significant buildings,both historically and aesthetically, hadlighting solutions installed to light up thefaçades and emphasise the beauty and sig-nificance of these structures.“The added effect is that these buildings
become beacons, further adding to their po-sition as significant buildings. The inten-tion is to bring the building back to life and,along with the various renovations and res-torations that are underway and planned,the lighting should help rejuvenate the ap-pearance of the building,” he says.The façade lighting forms part of an R8m
upgrade to the iconic building, which in-cludes maintenance to the wooden floors,
clock, roof, hallways and exhibition spaces aswell as rainwater drainage.The Castle of GoodHopewas recently given
a lighting makeover by Philips at the conclu-sion of their fifth consecutive pan-AfricanCairo to Cape Town roadshow.The latest LED lighting technology by
Philips has been utilised to create eye-catch-
ing, dynamic and colourful lighting effectsthat will bring this architectural monu-ment to life, while allowing energy savingsof 80%over the traditional lightsused in theCastle.The lighting installation at City Hall will
also provide added security, Bloor says.“The lighting will have the indirect bene-
fit of minimising dark spots and creatinggreater visibility around the building. Inaddition, it will beautify and accentuate thefaçade of this cultural landmark,” he says.Cape Town Central City Improvement
District chief operating officer Tasso Evan-gelinos says lighting plays an importantrole in any CBD. “Not only does it createaesthetic appeal but it also adds a vital ele-ment to safety and security after hours. Peo-ple feel safer in well-lit areas and good exte-rior lighting improves visibility overall,
scuppering the opportunity for illegal activi-ties to take place in ‘dark corners’,” he says.In addition, a strong overall management
plan and structure is vital for the public are-as immediately bordering onto theCityHall,Evangelinos says. “Thismust, above all else,include the Grand Parade which is often uti-lised together with the City Hall duringevents. Management of the two spacesshould be a two-pronged approach.”The lighting is still currently in planning
stage and is “some way away from imple-mentation”, Bloor says. “The intention atthis point in time is to light the façade of thebuilding on all sides. We have just com-menced with the planning and thereforeneed to undertake our investigations to de-termine feasibility, scope and cost.”Council aims to have the lighting installed
by the end of next year, Bloor says.

Trust calls forinvestorsNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
The Ndabeni Trust is calling for in-vestors to develop property at theWingfield Military Base.
This comes after the vacant propertyin Voortrekker Road recently sawscores of occupants invading the areawith metal sheets and wood, attemptingto put up shacks.Occupants came from areas such as
Gugulethu, Khayelitsha and Philippi.Ndabeni Trust chairperson Russell
Kokoma says the Trust plans to developthe property for business use to generateincome for the beneficiaries.“The beneficiaries resolved that they
want a business development that willgenerate income for current and futuregenerations to come,” he saysInternal conflict and lack of vision
from the previous committees has de-layed the development of the site, ac-cording to Kokoma.“We’d like to see construction begin as
soon as possible. The project is longoverdue and as soon as we get a suitabledeveloper that we can form a joint ven-ture with, we’d like to start,” he ex-plains.The forced removals saw many fami-
lies moving to smaller houses which didnot easily accommodate big families.“Many residents also experienced a
loss of business as most of the [people]from KwaNdabeni were traders of food
and hand-made goods that they used totransport to town. The forced removalsincreased the distance between theirhomes and workplaces,” says Kokoma.He believes the income generated
from the development will alleviate pov-erty among the beneficiaries.In the meantime, the Trust is looking
to secure the site. However, no date hasbeen set for these plans, Kokoma says.The Trust represents around 1 000
claimants from families removed fromNdabeni, who were forcefully relocatedto Langa in the 1930s by the apartheidadministration.The land originally occupied by the
claimants has since been used for indus-trial activity.The families then opted for land at the
Wingfield base and theTrustwas award-ed over 50ha of land in a restitutionclaim in 2001.The community is now calling on the
Trust to secure the site.Community Police Forum spokesper-
son Lorenzo Sadan says this needs tohappen immediately.“People sneak onto the property at
night and Law Enforcement officers arelimited inwhat they can do as this is pri-vate property. They also can’t stay thereindefinitely.”Mayoral Committee member for Hu-
man Settlements Siyabulela Mamkelisays the City has been warning the pri-vate land owner to take steps to preventillegal occupation for months.

DRUG ABUSE
Drugs linked tomental illnessThe link between substance
abuse and mental healtheffects was the focus of
council asWorldMental HealthDay was celebrated across theglobe on Friday.Health professionals at four
of the City of Cape Town’s fivetreatment sites are trained todeal with mental health issues.“We cannot deny there is a
strong link between substanceabuse andmental health issues.While we don’t have statisticson the number of ‘dual diagno-sis’ cases, we have noticed highrates of mental health issueswith substance abusers and[vice versa],” says MayoralCommittee member for HealthBenedicta van Minnen.“Traditionally, substance
abuse andmental health servic-es have been fragmented, butbecause the City’s treatmentsites are based in clinics withdoctors andmental health nurs-es, it has allowed the provisionof an integrated service whereclients can be treated for both.”Mental health screening is
part of council’s general screen-ing and assessment process forclientswanting toparticipate inalcohol and drug treatment pro-grammes.People identified as possibly
having a mental health issueare then referred for diagnosisand treatment, which runs con-currently with the addictiontreatment.
The client’s mental healthstatus is monitored and staffmembers ensure they take theirmedication. Mental health is-sues such as depression, bipo-lar disorder and schizophreniaare the main mental issuespresent in clients.A total of 1621 clients were
screened at City Health sites inthe last financial year, a state-ment reads, but not all completethe 16-week programme.“At a site like Tafelsig, which
hasbeen running since 2008, thestaff have built a good rapportwith the doctors and mentalhealth nurses. We have seen anincrease in the number of sub-stance abuse clients receivingmental health services,” VanMinnen explains.“This could be [as a result of]
staff being more sensitised toco-occurring disorders or, froma substance abuse perspective,it could be [as a result of] havingaccess to on-site mental healthservices. We have improved re-tention and outcomes for theseclients.”City staff assist clients by ar-
ranging appointments for arange of services, while there iscontinuousdialogueand follow-ups between the mental healthand substance abuse staff.Clients are also provided
with support services once theyexit the programme and ongo-ing monitoring of their mentalhealth status.

For more information call the Transport Information Centre (toll-free 24/7) 0800 65 64 63. Visit www.myciti.org.za
Buses serving seven routes come and go every few minutes from the new Adderley station.
Make the switch to MyCiTiIf you haven’t used MyCiTi before, then visit the newAdderley station and find out how easy it really is to use thissafe, affordable and convenient public transport service.
The opening of the Adderleystation in the heart ofcentral Cape Town’s
public transport hub offers userstransfers that are even moreconvenient than ever. Just crossthe road from the rail station andthe station taxi rank and catchMyCiTi. With buses every fewminutes in the busy peak hoursthere is very little waiting time,so there’s no more queuing in thewind and rain or waiting for thevehicle to fill up before leaving.All you need to use MyCiTi is
amyconnect card. Get yours forR35 at the station kiosk and loadwith money or Mover points – andyou can tap in and travel to yourplace of work, school or college,or simply to enjoy a day out withfamily and friends.Like using an ATM or a cellphone,
the MyCiTi fare systemmay takea little getting used to at first,
but soon tapping your card andreloadingmoney becomes secondnature. It’s the way of the futuretoo, as the plan is to eventually useone smartcard on all the majorforms of public transport.
Ask for Mover points and saveWhen you load your card at thestation kiosk, ask the cashierto load Mover points. Mover isavailable from R50 and you save30% on all fares, no matter whattime of the day you travel. Youwill be surprised at how low yourfare can be.
Load Standard for convenienceWhen you load money asStandard, you can use the moneyto pay for purchases of up toR200 at shops. So convenientwhen you have forgotten to drawmoney and you need bread andmilk for the morning.
Changes toMyCiTi services
MyCiTi services havebeen reviewed tobetter match the
services to the level ofpassenger demand on thevarious routes and at differenttimes. This is to ensure thatthe service is sustainableand that resources are usedoptimally to benefit themost number of people. Thismeans timetables have beenchanged across the system,in general with more frequentservices in the busy morningand afternoon peak and fewerservices when there is lessdemand. Some routes havealso changed. Details areavailable on the website,www.myciti.org.za and at busstops and shelters.
Nwabisa Mkabile, Nyanga“I work in Camps Bay and startedusing MyCiTi in March but CivicCentre station was a bit far. NowI get off the taxi and straight intoAdderley station, it’s great!”
James Rodgers, CBD“I use the service to get aroundthe city bowl and hardly usemy car anymore. With the newAdderley station, I don’t have towalk to Civic Centre anymore andit makes my life really easy.”
Amutujilani Charamba,Kenilworth“It is very difficult travelling witha baby on a taxi especially if youhave done some shopping too. WithMyCiTi, I simply park the pram andlock the wheels. It makes goingplaces with him so much easier.”
Heather Adams, Kuilsrivier“I’m taking my daughters to TableMountain for the day. This is ourfirst time using the service andI hope my girls will use it a lotbecause other modes of publictransport aren’t very safe foryoung girls.”

@TazzCup
It will be a clash of the titans when AjaxCape Town host Kaizer Chiefs in thePremier Soccer League (PSL) at Cape
Town Stadium on Sunday.The encounter pits the first and second-
placed teams in the country’s top footballleague against each other.The UrbanWarriors will look to contin-
ue their impressive winning home recordagainst the Amakhosi when they take tothe field.The Cape has not been a happy hunting
ground for Stuart Baxter’s charges – theyhaven’t beaten Ajax at home since the2009/2010 season. Their last two visits toCapeTownsaw themgodown3-1 (May lastyear) and 1-0 (November last year).But continuing the winning run against
Chiefs in the Mother City will not be aneasy feat for Roger de Sá’s troops. TheGlamour Boys are the only unbeaten teamin the league, having won all seven theirmatches.Ajax boast a near-flawless record as
well. They have won four matches, drawntwo and lost only one – their last PSL en-counter before the commencement of theTelkom Knockout Cup (TKO) and the in-ternational break.Only Mpumalanga Black Aces have
been able to pip the Capetonians’ this sea-son, when they defeated them 0-1 atMbombela Stadium inNelspruit on Satur-day 27 September.However, the Urban Warriors got over
their first loss with ease, as they beat 3-0Aces in the TKO at Cape Town Stadiuma week later. Striker Thabiso Nkoane(two) and defender Abubaker Mobara’sgoals helped their side to a quarter-finalspot in the prestigious competition.The PSL clash between De Sá and Bax-
ter’s boys will undoubtedly dish up someexciting football, with Ajax (14) looking toclose the seven-point gap Chiefs (21) hason them.The last time the two sidesmet in Polok-
wane inMarch (last season), the Amakho-si came out on top with a 2-0 victory.At the back of skipper Travis Graham
and his crew’s minds will also be theirnext PSL clash and the TKO quarter-final.Both matches will be played the week fol-lowing the Chiefs clash.Ajax will host Platinum Stars in a PSL
match onWednesday 22 October and trav-el to the north to face Orlando Pirates inthe TKOquarter-final at Orlando Stadiumon Saturday 25 October.V The PSL outing between Ajax CT and Kaizer Chiefskicksoff at Cape Town Stadium at 15:30 on Sunday19 October. Tickets, via Computicket, cost R80, R60and R40.

Young water polo players from primaryschools across the country will con-verge inNewlands for the annual SACS
Junior School under-13 water polo tourna-ment.
The 14th instalment of the tournamentwill pit 22 of the country’s top primaryschool water polo teams against each otherfrom Thursday 16 to Saturday 18 October.
The participating schools are SACS A;SACS B; Rondebosch Boys’ PreparatorySchool; Bishops; Wynberg Boys’ JuniorSchool; Reddam House; Western ProvincePreparatory School; Cannon’sCreekSchool;Faure’s FF; St David’s; St Peter’s; St Bene-dict’s; St John’s; St Stithian’s; The Ridge;King Edward Preparatory School; CliftonPrimary School; Durban Preparatory HighSchool; Highbury; Selborne College; Stir-ling; and Grey PE.
“With 22 teams [participating in the tour-nament], the SACS Junior Tournament isone of the largest water polo tournaments in
the country. A total of 117 games will beplayed over the three days,” says SACS headcoach, Dean Rimmer.
“Each game has two periods – known inwater polo as chukkas – of six minutes each.There is a two-minute break in betweenchukkas, which makes the game extremelyfast and exciting, and forces an action-packed 12 minutes.”
Since its inception, the tournament hasbeen dominated by the hosts, Grey PE andTokai’s ReddamHouse – each boasting threetournament wins.
Owing to their performances at the GreyPE Tournament earlier this year, Rimmersays SACS andGrey PE are again favouritesto take the trophy.
But he has not written off the charge fromthe tournament’s defending champions,Rondebosch Boys’ Preparatory School.
“We wish all the teams an enjoyable andsuccessful tournament, and greatly look for-ward to hosting our friendswithin thewaterpolo community,” Rimmer adds.
The SACS teams boast with 10 WesternProvince water polo representatives – Dev-
on Laurenson; ThomasBrewer; JordanTho-mas; Oliver Stewart; Brent van Niekerk;JoshWilliams; SebastianWilliam; MatthewHayes; and Ben Hartley have all donned theWP colours at provincial level.
Rimmer, together with Jason Wilmans,will rally the SACS troops – anA and B team– to challenge for the title. “We try to buildeach player’s skill and confidence, and be-lieve that a team with good individual tech-nique can more easily execute team strate-gy,” he explains.
“Water polo is truly a game in which youare only as strong as your weakest link. Webelieve the teamplays at a constant high lev-el all the time.Wewill hopefully add a fourthtitle this year, but with somany strong sidesand the style of the tournament, it dependson which team has the best game on theday.”
The tournament will be held at the SACSswimming pool.V For more information on the tournament visitwww.sacswaterpolo.com.
