WITH the end of the financial ap-proaching, local councillors are

looking to wrap up projects funded by theannual ward allocations.

Here’s what your representatives are doingwith your rates and taxes.

Ward 57 councillor Brett Herron explainsthat his ward allocation projects were decid-ed by his predecessor and under the previoussub council.

R80 000 is being spent on the upgrade of theBeyers Road Park in Woodstock, which is re-garded as an “incremental” project.

Two parks in Mowbray are being im-proved, with the Cecil Road Park having rub-berised matting installed and the Alma RoadPark being repaired and fenced at a cost of

around R50 000.A further R10 000 has been spent on two

drinking fountains at the Village Green inObservatory and R90 000 was allocated for theupgrading of the entrance of Shelley RoadSports Complex in Salt River which shouldboast a paved parking area.

Herron confirmed that a shortage of bitu-men has delayed this project. “In terms of thecoming financial year, I propose to allocatea significant portion of my ward allocation to-wards traffic calming. There is a backlog ofapproved speed humps which have not beenbuilt due to the lack of funding,” says Herron.

Ward 56 councillor Derrick America budg-eted R200 000 for palisade fencing around theKensington Civic Centre, and R198 978 hasbeen spent on the completed project.

A further R85 000 was budgeted for palisadefencing around the Kensington Library, but

only R67 970 was spent and the project is notregarded as complete. “The contractor didnot fulfil the complete terms of the agreementas he did not, for example, close the lane,”says America.

Chairs for the librarywerepurchased,withR15 000 being budgeted and R14 650 beingspent. Overall, the total capital budget fromthe ward allocation was R300 000.

The operating expenditure budget focusedon skills training for the unemployed, withR60 000 set aside for driving lessons for 25 un-employed Kensington residents.

A further R40 000 was allocated towards ar-ea cleaning. Repairs to the roof and other re-lated maintenance at the Royal Road Sports-field have not yet begun, but around R150 000is set to be spent by the end of the financialyear. “The amount was nationally not part ofthe ward allocation, but the councillor, to-

gether with the sub council 15 managers, sup-ported a motivation for the allocation of thisamount,” says America.

The upgrading of two parks will cost R50000 – the Glider Crescent Park in Factretonand the facility at the corner of Boeing Roadand 10th Avenue in Kensington will be get-ting a spruce up.

A further R50 000 was allocated to SummerGreens, but due to the demarcation of thewards, the area was excluded from Ward 56.

For Ward 55, councillor Bernadette leRoux, who is responsible for small portionsof Woodstock and Salt River, highlighted that100% of the ward allocation budget for the ar-ea will be spent by the end of June this year.

Her budget covers the upgrade of parks inSalt River which will cost around R30 000, anda further R20 000 will be spent on streetsweeping.

People’s Post WoodstockMaitland NEWS Tuesday 3 April 2012

Dear reader,Thank you for your warm response to

my column.The first thing you’ll notice this week

is that I have a different picture in my“ConnectED” logo; and you’ll wonderwhy.

I can explain.I’ve learnt fast that when you’re in the

public eye, albeit as a byline or picturecredit, feedback and criticism becomeyour second and third names.You learn to “roll with thepunches”, “hit the groundrunning” and, when warrant-ed, “give as good as you get”.

The strategy, though,should be to extract valuefrom the many noises (oftenwell-meaning) being made,and not to take everythingpersonally; easier said thandone. The lesson I learnt fromusing an “arty” picture isthat interpretation is subjec-tive and that often consensusis your best guide. I still have my ownviews, though, about the perfect picture,based on my negative self-perception thatI am not photogenic. In fact, I often tellpeople that I look better in person.

That said, having listened well to feed-back from key colleagues, including myboss, and a contact (once a friend) whoreckons I look “worried” in last week’sphoto, I’ve changed my picture.

I may yet change it again...On to more entertaining topics: namely

the Cape Town International Jazz Festi-val, which brought the city to life thisweekend and saw local and internationalacts sharing the stage.

My first time at this, the 13th annualfestival, was made more magical by my

“tour guide” and esteemed Media24 col-league, Niel le Roux, who showed me theropes at the festival, taking me to, amongothers, a “jazz rave” outside the CullinanHotel.

Niel is a hard act to follow and as wetraipsed around the Cape Town Interna-tional Convention Centre, I was pleasedI had worn comfortable high heels – al-though a dress that was deliberately a bittoo long nearly saw me tumbling down es-

calators.I don’t favour crowds and I’m

known to walk out of full super-markets despite my “must”shopping list, but consideringthe magnitude of the festivaland attendance, I did not feelclaustrophobic or uncomforta-ble while standing shoulder-to-shoulder with thousands ofwell-heeled strangers – untilsome moron had the audacityto touch my backside and dis-appear in a flash before I couldturn my rage on him/her. That

didn’t ruin my experience, though, nordilute my appreciation of Cape Town asa truly world class city we are privilegedto be citizens of. We have proven our abil-ity tounite, be creative andwork togethertowards a common goal. Admittedly, wehave our flaws, like any society, but thecountless positives and good outweighthe shortcomings.

I wish you all a blessed and safe Easter.If you’re planning a road trip, please takeyour vehicle for safety checks before-hand.

Till next time, go well!ConnectED is a weekly column by

THE 73rd edition of the Cape Malay ChoirBoard’s Grand Final was wrapped up atthe Athlone Stadium on Saturday, produc-ing some “competitive performances”.

Young Men Sporting Club from Mitchell’sPlain found themselves on top of the log onceagain, when they scooped the coveted SilverFez Trophy for the second year running afterscoring the highest number of points.

The choir walked away with 60 points in theHighest Points category, securing the trophyfor the field events.

Shafiek April, the president of the board,was amazed at how much the annual event’scompetitive edge has grown, highlighting thateven the smallest of troupes are aiming for thenumber one spot.

“These teams are all working hard. Theyhave a competitive nature that brings out thebest in their performances and puts on a realshow for everyone to enjoy,” says April.

Young Men also wrapped up titles in the sec-tional division of the competition, as well assecuring the Top Eight for two years running.

“They did really well. The competition wasreally competitive and if you walked away aschampions, you must have been really good,”says April.

The event also gave some 5 000 spectatorsa glimpse of the future, when the SA SchoolMarching Champions, Dennegeur PrimarySchool from Mitchell’s Plain, put on a spectac-ular display.

April said the crowd were wowed by theyoungsters, adding that much of the talent ondisplay would soon become frontrunners forrespective teams participating in the board’scompetitions. “It was really an eye opener tosee how much talent is out there and theseboys have shown exactly why they are SouthAfrica’s best marchers,” says April.

Looking ahead, April hopes to create an“improved” version of events when it comesto the Malay choir competitions by changingand tweaking some rules.

“We will be looking to encourage teams towork even harder and practice a lot more, be-cause this will do wonders for the event in fu-ture,” April concluded.

The top six were Young Men with 60 points,Shoprite Jonge Studente with 44 points, Otto-mans with 42 points, Young Caballeros with36, Strelitzia with 29 and Young Zinnias with28.

WHAT started off as a warning to thepublicabout conartistsprowling in

the area has turned into a major head-ache for police, as the scam involvingfake officers spreads.

The scam initially started in Woodstock,where the suspects targeted seniors andmostly operated in groups of three.

Now Maitland Police are concerned afterreports have been received about this activi-ty occurring in their policing area.

Warrant Officer Siyabulela Vukubi saysthe con artists are targeting busy areas suchas shopping malls and train stations.

The scam usually starts with the con art-ists placing a bag filled with money at a busycorridor or entrance to a building, hoping avictim will stop and check the contents of thebag.

Once the victim has shown interest, thefake officers move in, questioning the victimabout an apparent robbery that has takenplace.

“They lure the victim to a certain pointwhere other suspects pretend to be police of-ficers with ID cards,” says Vukubi.

If the victim touched the bag, they wouldclaim that fingerprints would have to be tak-en, but the belongings of the victim neededto be handed over for “investigation purpos-es”.

People’s Post reported on the scam when avictim told his story, claiming the fake offic-ers were “really convincing” (“Con artistsdoing their rounds”, 7 February).

An unlucky victim, Sampson Nokwe, re-cently visited the Pick ’n Pay in Voortrekker

Road when he was approached by two men,claiming that he had handled the bag.

“They came up to me, showed me the bagand claimed that I had found it. I actually feltlike I had done something wrong,” the irateman says.

The fake officers then took Nokwe aside,explained that a robbery had occurred andthat they were currently investigating thematter.

Nokwe says the officers also had detailsabout specific banks and cars used in the“robbery”.

“They took me to my car and they alreadyknew what I was driving. They claimed thegetaway car was the same as mine, with thesame registration details which they hadprobably already written down,” he says.

Nokwe was informed that he was now asuspect in the robbery case and would be tak-en in for questioning, but would first haveto hand over all his belongings – a cellphone,his wallet which contained R1 700, rings anda wrist watch.

Once the suspects had the victim’s belong-ings in their possession, they informed Nok-we that they would return to the police sta-tion and he was required to meet them therein order to take fingerprints.

However, the suspects never made theirway to the station.

“These guys are really convincing and al-though I feel really stupidnow, it’s a differentsituation when you are faced with that. Yourmind does not begin to tell you that this isa scam or that a robbery is happening,” Nok-we added.

Anyone with information on the scam cancontact Maitland SAPS on (021) 506 9400 orCrime Stop on 086 0001 0111.

A 26-YEAR-old man was allegedly raped bya man posing as a woman in Observatorylast week.

On Wednesday 28 March, the man waswalking to Groote Schuur Hospital whensomebody dressed as a woman approachedhim in Bowden Street.

Lieutenant Colonel Andre Traut, provin-cial police spokesperson, says the personwas holding a purse and wearing a wig,and confronted the man with a knife.

A LOCKED door at the WoodstockTown Hall last week did not deterthe Woodstock Community Out-reach Forum from discussing someburning issues with residents.

The forum was due to host a pub-lic meeting at the town hall on Tues-day 27 March, but when problemsoccurred with the booking of the fa-cility, the meeting was quickly relo-cated to a nearby house.

People’s Post previously reportedon the forum (“Taking a stand”, 6March) which highlighted the for-mation of the forum and their plansfor the area.

Soon thereafter, the forum wenton an awareness march through lo-cal streets (“Forum lays down thelaw”, 20 March 2012), which sawresidents, organisations and chil-dren handing out pamphlets and in-forming the public about the body.

The forum’s chairperson,Shamiel Abbas, admits that nothaving the meeting in the town hallas arranged was a disappointment,but it did not affect the forum’s aimof giving feedback to the communi-ty. “This was the perfect opportuni-ty to present projects and problems,with adequate solutions and plans.We want to make a difference,” hesays.

Abbas explains that the forum isin the process of being registered asa non-profit organisation.

At the meeting, plans to intro-duce sector leaders to takecharge of youth development,business projects and otherissues were discussed.

Problem houses in Oxfordand Devon Street were also

discussed, with the forum planningon drawing up a petition to resolvethis. Problems mentioned includedrowdiness at all hours and constantsubstance abuse.

“We will give these owners an op-portunity to clean up their act andimprove the situation, but if not,the forum will take action,” hewarns.

Residents were relieved to findthe forum already attending to mat-ters affecting the area, especiallywith regard to the drug scourge.

One resident, living close to an al-leged drug house, is sick of witness-ing drug sales around the clock.

He says that in the past policehave raided the premises, but“came up with nothing” and no ar-rests were made. “These criminalshave become smart and they areone up on these police officers. Thearea needs people who know howthings operate around here andmaybe the forum is the answer,”the resident says.

Washiela Abrahams, another lo-cal, could not wait to see the sub-stance abuse matter tackled. Drink-ing in public is deemed a “majorheadache”. “Our children are ex-posed to these scenes every day andpart of the forum’s aim is for youthdevelopment, but they cannot de-velop if they have to experience thisevery day,” says Abrahams.

Abbas adds: “We are at a very sen-sitive stage, but we are going tomove against all these druglords.”

FOR eight of the boys livingat the Beth Uriel home,

dressing up and heading off totheir Matric ball was once onlya far-fetched dream. But comeThursday, it will become a re-ality.

Melvin Koopman, the pro-gramme manager and house fa-ther at the home, says the eventwill be a memorable day for theboys who are currently complet-ing Grade 12.

“Theseboys come fromdifficultbackgrounds and have reallybeen through a lot to be wherethey are today, which is why it’sa big deal for all of us here at thehome,” he says.

With House of Monatics spon-soring the outfits and a limousinebeing sponsored by LimousineExtreme, the boys are ready forthe ride of their life.

The eight boys attend theSchool of Hope in Bridgetown,who Koopman believes is doing a“sterling job” as many of the boysare overaged and are not allowedto attend other schools.

“Many of the schools have anage of 19 cut-off date, but thisschool has made provision forthese boys who are all comingfrom disadvantaged backgrounds

and communities,” Koopmansays.

The home, in Salt River, isgrounded in a 25-year-old tradi-tion of embracing family values.

It functions as both a Section 21company and a non-profit organi-sation. The home currently ac-commodates 26 young men, be-tween the ages of 18 to 25, from across section of communities in

Cape Town and abroad.Staff work hard at connecting

the youth to formal education,both at a tertiary and secondarylevel, with home-based academicsupport and peer-to-peer tutor-ing.

They also have therapeutic anddevelopmental programmes fo-cusing on life skills, statutorycare and re-integration.

RESIDENTS living in a block of flats inMaitland have become increasingly frus-trated by the number of times copper pip-ing has been stolen.

Panorama Court in Royal Road has beentargeted on several occasions, with the mostrecent case on Thursday.

A body corporate member, who wishes toremain anonymous, confirmed that securityhad recently been improved when a new lockwas fitted to the sliding gate, but they noticedthat the lock was being tampered with.

“It seems that whoever was behind theserobberies had systematically started jam-ming the lock to allow entry,” he says.

Before the incident on Thursday, resi-dents heard rumours about thieves return-ing for the copper, after which Maitland po-lice were informed and requested to increasepatrols.

Their suspicions proved to be correct andthe thieves struck at 04:30, the body corpo-rate confirmed. Residents, who wished to re-main anonymous, said they felt disgusted bythe “destructive thieves” and were dismayed

at the frequency of the incidents.“People living here are expecting it to hap-

pen again. That is how bad it has become,”says one resident.

Another pointed out that the block of flatswas being monitored by these copperthieves, as they know “exactly when tostrike”.

“Either they are getting inside informa-tionor theyarewatching this buildingall thetime. They know exactly when to strike andthey know what they are coming for,” saysa resident.

According to Warrant Officer SiyabulelaVukubi, spokesperson for Maitland police,complainants at the flats requested an in-crease in the number of visible police patrolsaround Panorama Court.

However, he continues that no cases havebeen opened with Maitland Police.

“Suspicious people are allegedly walkingin that vicinity between 02:00 and 05:00 in themorning, but since the police have increasedvisibility, no loitering has been noticed,”says Vukubi.

He adds that members at the station havenow been briefed to step up patrols aroundthe block.

Nothing funny about climate changeFOLLOWING Tony Robinson’s latest dig atgreenies and climate scientists, I have justa few comments.

There is a plethora of technologies andnew ideas out there tomakebuildingsmoreenergy efficient, if he just bothers to readabout it.

White roofs, solar panel roofs, solar gey-sers, thatch roofs, blah, blah – the storygoes on.

Find something else to harp on about. Iam sure even climate scientists have

doubts themselves. Predicting the weatheris hard enough as it is, let alone dealingwith a changing climate 50 years into thefuture.

Rather compliment them on the fact thatthey actually have the guts to attempt it.

Furthermore, it is called climate changefor a reason, hence it is quite possible thatEurope can expect a really bad cold spell.It is actually part of the future climatechange scenarios.L. THERON

YourSMSesExperience vs age

. I am in my mid-fiftiesand have been struggling tofind a job for the past threeyears. I share “Desperate’s”sentiments (Your SMSes,People’s Post, 27 March). Arethere any companies thatare able to assist in tempo-rary or contract work for“senior teenagers”? Ourcountry needs experiencedpeople. We are reliable, wedon’t have boyfriends, girl-friends or baby problems.We are highly committed,but because of our age we areoverlooked. Please help. Des-perate 2

. “Desperate”, I can relateto your SMS. If you are over40 you can forget about find-ing employment unless youknow people in high places.I matriculated at 41 andspent money on computercourses to empower myself.Three years down the line Istill don’t have a job. Shi-haam Wilkinson

. Why don’t businessesgive people over 40 work? Wealso want jobs. Give us achance. All the years wegave our best for the coun-try. We only want to work forour families. Some of usdon’t even have houses.

Of ‘jokes’ and religion. It’s so true that God can

defend himself, but if it wassomeone you loved who wasinsulted this way, would younot defend him? As a Mus-lim, I also feel it is an insultto the Prophet Jesus as He isourprophet too.Thead’s cre-ators need to apologise forthe disrespect displayed bythem. Farieda

. How dare they make funof our Lord and Saviour, Je-sus Christ? He was crucifiedto save us from our sins. On-ly an atheist would have thementality to conjure up sucha blasphemous ad! Believer

. The Red Bull ad is an in-sult to Muslims and Chris-tians alike, and it is totallydisrespectful to God and ourProphet Jesus (peace be up-on him). Anyone who disre-spects any of our prophetsangers the Muslim andChristian communities.

Commuter complaints. First class coaches are

empty and third class coach-es are full. Ticket collectorsare rude and dishonest. The

constant apologies aboutlate trains continue and nowthere are plans for a pricehike. They make the taxi in-dustry look good. From a fed-up latecomer

. I totally agree with thepeople complaining aboutMetroFail – they sure don’tdiscriminate. They deliver arubbish service to everyone.There’s no security!

In response. Tony Robinson displays

a real battery chicken men-tality in his random viewsdisparaging global warm-ing. Just because he can’t seeit doesn’t mean it’s not real.Do some real research sir,and you will see why 96% ofscientists accept the evi-dence. And don’t thinkpainting roofswhite is anan-swer – we need to change theway we recklessly emit car-bon and waste energy at thesame time. Put your columnto good use to question whywe don’t all have solar wa-ter-heaters, for example! Pe-ter Johnston

. If you really understoodthe process of evolution, youwould realise that it makesa “Creator” unnecessaryand superfluous. Let us allnow stop this nonsenseabout imaginary beings.Moira Bijker

Taxi troubles. Get your facts in order,

Mr Loonat. If you don’t un-derstand how it works in thetaxi industry, keep quiet.From a proud permit holder

. Mr Loonat, please don’tinterfere with taxi business.You need to focus on the cur-rent crime in the communi-ty. Leave our livelihoodalone. Stop listening to op-portunists and parasites andstick to your portfolio.

. I want to remind youthat we as taxi owners havebuilt up these businessesand routes over 120 years al-ready. We have given blood,sweat and tears building upthis industry to where it istoday. We have been doingthis without a governmentsubsidy and are currentlytransporting 70% of the pop-ulation, daily. We are incompetition against GoldenArrow that enjoys over R700million per annum, so justimagine if the taxi industrygot that subsidy – we would

have given a much betterservice. We could ask ourcustomers if they wantchicken or beef! The newdrivers must not capitaliseon our bread and butter aswe also provide an income tothe drivers, sliding-door op-erators and the rank mar-shals. The Taxi Board is cor-rect in not supplying newpermits on the oversaturat-ed routes, and for those whocame in the taxi industryyesterday, you have nochance to steal our businessfrom us. From the loyal taxiindustry of Mitchell’s Plain

Just a thought. Peoplewhoadvertise job

opportunities must stopwasting others’ time. Whenyou apply for the post thatwas advertised in newspa-pers and on the internet onlytwo days ago, businesses re-spond that the job was al-ready taken, even if the duedate has not yet passed.Some places phone you andtell you that you got the job.You work for a week, thenthey say sorry, the personwhoresignedhas comeback.You can’t let someone backafter they resign. Looks likesome people don’t know howthe rules work in business.

. We all know it’s wrongto smoke in public, but thetaxi drivers and the guardsstill smoke in the taxis. B

. Thankyou for a great pa-per.

. Does anyone have anyinformation on a waterpainting bought over 40years ago? The words “Canalat Haarlem” are printed onthe back of the painting. CallC Springer on 072 571 4339.

By the way. What a farce! On 17

March, amessage onTV tellsus the use of electricity is in-creasing and requests us toswitch off all non-essentialpower. A few minutes later,Patricia De Lille happilywatches Table Mountain be-ing lit up. Just how seriousis this power saving lark?

. In response to the letter“No respect for females”, Iam absolutely intrigued toknow how “Anonymous”knowswhat is going throughthe mind of the young manadmiring the under-age girl.How does he/she connectthis ability to spot rapists?

Evolution is a myth, not a factTHE writer, Summer Jacobs, concludes thatevolution is a fact (“Should children be taughtaccording to fact or faith?” People’s Post, 13March).

Evolution is a myth and should not be con-sidered as academic material, period! Believ-ing in a myth such as evolution and adheringto it, despite the findings of science, results inan emotional state of despair.

The harmony in the universe and the designin living thingsbecomesagreat source of trou-ble to evolutionists.

These words of Darwin offer a glimpse intothe sentiments of most evolutionists: “I re-member well the time when the thought of theeye made me cold all over, but I have got overthis stage of complaint ... and now trifling par-ticulars of structure often make me very un-comfortable. The sight of a feather in a pea-cock’s tail, whenever I gaze at it, makes mesick!“

Yes the feathers of a peacock as well ascountless other signs of creation in naturecontinue to discomfort evolutionists. A moreobjective approach is to inform the youngmind that science is the investigation of thematerial world we live in through observationand experimentation.

In conducting such investigations, sciencewill lead to various conclusions based on in-formation collected through observation andexperimentation.

The first step in scientific investigation is

the formulation of a ‘hypothesis’. A hypothe-sis must be formed to commence a researchtopic.

This hypothesis is then tested through sci-entific experimentation. If observation andexperiments verify the hypothesis, it is thencalled an ‘established principle or law’. If dis-proved thennewhypotheses are testedand theprocess continues.

Formulation of a hypothesis, which is thefirst step of the process, is often dependent onthe scientist basic viewpoint.

For instance, scientists – if committed to acertain outlook – could base their work on ahypothesis that “matter has a tendency to self-organise without the involvement of a con-science agent”.

Then they would conduct years of researchto verify that hypothesis. Yet since matter hasno such capability, all these efforts are boundto fail.

Furthermore, if scientists are overly obsti-nate about hypothesis, the research may lastfor years and even for generations. The endresult though would be but a huge waste oftime and resources.

However, had the point of assumption beenthe idea that “it is impossible formatter to self-organise without conscience planning” scien-tific research would have followed a more ex-peditious and productive course.SALIH YITSHAKKensington Islamic Forum

LIAM MOSES

THE southern peninsula is set to receivea wave of good news in June this year,when the Future Factory Good News Cy-cle Tour travels through the area.

The tour will see Anne Siroky, formerSouth African volleyball player, and as manyas ten other people, cycling hundreds of kilo-metres through the southern metropole ofCape Town and stopping in several impover-ished areas to highlight the positives whichhave occurred amongst all of the negatives.

According to Siroky, her reason for draw-ing attention to the good things which haveoccurred in these areas is to try to inspire oth-er people in similar situations to do the same.

“So if we stop, for example, in Ocean View,we don’t want to concentrate on the badthings that happen in the place,” said Siroky.

“I think if we start talking to people aboutthe greatness that is happening in their area,they will actually realise that they can taketheir area back. And the gangsters and druglords don’t have to continue ripping our chil-dren apart.

“There arepeoplewhowant to change theirlives, so why can’t the cycle tour focus on thatfor a change?”

The tour is being run by Future Factory,a non-profit organisation started by Siroky in2001 after she retired from volleyball.

Siroky played both indoor and beach vol-leyball duringher career and sinceher retire-ment she has run sport-related communityorientated projects around Cape Town.

She was named as the Shoprite CheckersSABC2 Woman of the Year for Sport in 2007,

was the Western Cape winner of the Old Mu-tual Sowetan SABC Community Builder ofthe Year award that same year, and is alsoa recipient of the Imvusa Foundation’s Com-munity Spirit Award.

Siroky came up with the Good News CycleTour as a way to celebrate the tenth anniver-sary of the formation of the Future Factory.

Apart from spreading good news, the tourwill also aim to raise R1 000 for every one ofthe 1 600 kilometres that will be covered.

Siroky says that the funds will be used forfuture projects for the organisation and pos-sibly to help the areas that the tour will passthrough.

“We might want to return to Ocean View,for example, and take some equipment tothose areas. Like we know there are some ofthose schools who play Volley Ball,” saidSiroky.

“And also to go and look at the needs. May-be a R1 000 can sort out someone’s needs inthat area.”

The Good News Cycle Tour will start at theCollege of Cape Town Wynberg Campus onFriday 1 June and then wind its way throughthe southern peninsula before setting off forWorcester and returning to Cape Town.

Siroky added that the Cycle Tour would bethe last major project she coordinated withthe Future Factory before embarking on anew business venture.

According to Siroky her new business willhelp to fund further projects for the FutureFactory.

To make a donation to the Future FactoryGood News Cycle Tour or for more informa-tion, contact Siroky on 072 916 3331.

THE last day of the eleventh annualKensington AFC Youth Cup wentright down to the wire on Sunday as

penalties were required to find championsin both the plate and winner’s sections ofthe Under 15 tournament.

The Youth Cup features both an U11 and aU15 competition and started on Friday withthe 16 teams from each age group divided infour groups of four.

The top two finishers in each group ad-vanced to thewinner’s quarterfinals,while thebottom third and fourth placed teams ad-vanced to the plate quarter finals.

In the plate section Gugulethu side ShiningStars won their shoot-out against Mitchell’sPlain team Mr Price Parkhust Academy 2-0 inthe final, while Pinelands-based Old MutualAcademy beat Lucky Stars, also of Gugulethu,4-3 in the winner’s section final.

Roger Links, head of youth development atOld Mutual, said that he was happy with thevictory but admitted that his team were capa-ble of playing better football.

“It’s a final; it’s not what we expect it to bebecause the kids are very tired at this stage.So the quality of the football wasn’t up to whatit’s supposed to be,” said Links.

“I think, all in all, we are happy that we won.It’s always good for the academy to be seen tobe winning. Success always breeds success.”

Shining Stars qualified for the final after

beating Everton United in the quarter-finalsand Vasco da Gama in the semis, whileParkhurst knocked out Norway Park andGeorge United to claim a spot.

Lucky Stars made their way to the final byfirst beating the tournament hosts and thenknocking out Fire Fighters, and eventualchampions Old Mutual first beat CPUT in thequarters and then Ajax in the semis.

According to Links, his team played theirbest football in the knockout stages of the com-petition.

“Our semi-final against Ajax was probablyour best match.

“I think, football wise, that was the bestmatch of our tournament,” said Links.

“We started off very slowly, and I think wegot better as the tournament went on.

“On the last day I think we played our bestfootball. Friday and Saturday were very medi-ocre but we got better.”

In the Under 11 competition, the final of theplate section ended in a 2-1 victory by CPUTover Norway Parks, while the Old Mutual U11salso claimed the winner’s trophy after defeat-ing Fire Fighters 1-0.

The tournament was held at the Royal Roadsportsfields in Maitland.
