A SOCCER club is desperate to keep dogsoff their training grounds.

The Queens Park sports field, in UpperWoodstock, wants owners to keep their petsroaming on a designated dog-walking facili-ty.

It is situated next to the club’s traininggrounds in Queens Park Road.

The park was initially built when residentswere concerned about dogs running freely atthe sports facility (“Dog-walking facility gets

‘thumbs-up’”, People’s Post, Tuesday 19 July2011).

The City forked out R2 million for the dogpark, but some residents are adamant dogsare still running around on the sports fields.

Shamiel Abbass, chairperson of the Wood-stock Community Outreach Forum and mem-ber of the soccer club, says: “The dog parkwas built for a reason and the field is sup-posed to be used for soccer practice and forplaying soccer games, yet some people stilluse the park to walk their dogs and that’swrong.”

He says often during practice, players step

or fall into animal faeces. “Why must theywalk their dogs on the field when there is abig, fancy place for their dogs to run aroundand do their business?” asks Abbass.

Rezaah Petersen regularly walks his pit-bull on the field.

“I know about the dog park, but my dog wasso used to running around on the field beforethe facility was built, so I just let him run.”

Petersen admits it is careless allowing hisdog to run on the field.

“My dog doesn’t want to be in the dog park,but if it’s causing a problem for other peopleI will have to teach him to run around it from

now on. I just have to make him used to it be-cause there’s nothing wrong with the park,”he says. “It’s actually really nice.”

Ward Councillor Brett Herron is aware ofthe problem and says enforcing the law is dif-ficult.

“People who choose to use the field ratherthan the dog park are disrespectful. The facil-ity was put there for a reason so it must beused,” says Herron.

He adds a solution will be found by workingtogether. “It isn’t the whole communitybreaking the rule – it’s just a few people, andthey need to show a little more respect.”

Dear reader,

I dedicate this column to my mother whohas been living with breast cancer for morethan two years.

I’ll never forget the day my mom’s doctordiagnosed her cancer and her response aftercrying. She said: “I will have to live withthis”, unlike most people who express fearof dying at such news. With these words, mymother had inadvertently creat-ed a message of hope for herself.Remarkably, she has kept thishope alive, without invasivetreatments which our family ini-tially insisted on and retaliatedangrily to when she persistentlyrefused to even consider the bestknown conventional treatmentavailable.

Ultimately though, we had torespect my mother’s right to liveher life and manage her illness asshe chooses. Facedwith thehead-strong, determined matriarchthat is my mother, our family fully supportedher decision and tried everything we couldto strengthen her immune system and giveher a fighting chance. Among the manythings we have tried are apricot kernels, vi-tamins, bitter herbs, olive leaf honey, mas-sage, oils, holy water, prayer, dark chocolateand green juice.

These have brought some relief, but I amconstantly amazed at how my mother liveswith her pain. She seldom takes painkillersand even now, after a few teaspoons of mor-phine, she has lowered her dose. Throughouther illness, my mother has remained herusual talkative, authoritative, smart, wick-edly funny self. Despite becoming very frailand thin, she has retained her ability to walkand sit while eating her meals, and have apuff or two. Who’s counting?

A woman of remarkable faith, willpowerand resilience, my mother is an inspirationto her six children and many who know her.

My father would differ somewhat, as it hasbecomehis destiny to take care of this strong,wilful woman and their three cats and twobirds. His best culinary efforts are often criti-cised by her and feedback to visitors is thathe does not provide her with the balanced di-et she requires. My siblings and I take thiswith a ton of salt as we know how much effortmy father puts into my mother’s meals; infact, everything he does for her.

To keep the peace, we humourmy mother in her diatribeagainst my father, and then tellhim in private we know the truth.If my mother were to read this, I’dbe in trouble.

In the past few months, mymother’s health has deterioratedrapidlyandphysically shehasbe-come a shell of her former self,but her mind is as astute as everand I still turn to her for guidanceon matters finance, career andpersonal.

I do my best to visit herthroughout the week, but Sundays are ourdays when we talk, feel sad, reminisce andlaugh at our silly comments, especially mymom’s gossip about my dad.

What I love most about my interactionwith my mother is her brilliant sense of hu-mour and ability to appreciate a good joke– not mine though, as I’m notoriously unfun-ny. I cannot believe when looking at mymother’s beautiful smiling face that she isriddled with pain; it is only when I focus onhow thin and fragile her wrists and limbsare, that the reality of her illness sinks in.

My mother’s journey has been painful,traumatic and terrifying and I am humbledby her strength and grace. She will alwaysbe my heroine and I thank God for every mo-ment I still have with her.

SHEBEENS are synonymous with dis-orderly behaviour and unsociable con-duct. People’s Post readers believethere are more negatives to illegal liq-uor outlets, or so-called backyarddrinking holes.

Most readers say shebeens offer little fi-nancial incentive to the community, whileothers believe off-consumption outlets arethe better option.

Patrons to off-consumption outlets canonly buy liquor there; they have to con-sume their products elsewhere as suchpremises do not offer bar-type facilities.

Plans are afoot for the City of Cape Townto lessen the damage caused by alcoholabuse in townships. Illegal shebeens andtaverns have been identified as a driver intownship economies.

In a statement, the City says recent legis-lation has however “sought to stop suchpractices, because of the disruption she-beens can cause, especially in residential

areas”.To avoid financial hardship as a result

of income loss from closure of shebeens,the City has drafted its Implementation ofEconomic Growth and Harm ReductionStrategy.

To this end, the City aims to relocate thesite of business transactions from homesand residential areas to business corri-dors, including main roads.

Belinda Walker, mayoral member forEconomic, Environmental and SpatialPlanning, says this initiative forms part ofthe City’s goal in taking into consideration“the needs of all residents” as well as thecreation of “economic opportunities”.

The idea is to create a safer space forbusiness transactions and enable shops toreach a larger client base.

The City will expand its initiative in,among others, Philippi, through consulta-tion.

It also aims to engage in social initiativesto educate people about sustainable busi-ness actions and the dangers of alcoholabuse.

Shebeens: shape up or ship out?

NO BENEFIT: Ian Mclean says: “There is nouse for these shebeens if it breaks downcommunities. They may lead to job creationfor a few, but also cause many people to losetheir jobs due to alcoholism.”

BAD: “Shebeens attract all kinds of ele­ments. It is bad for our children, becausealcohol leads to sexual, mental and physicalabuse in families. We don’t want our chil­dren exposed to that,” says Pausha le Roux.

DIFFERENCE: “Stop­shop­and­go shebeensare not as bad as the sit­down shebeens. Ifyou compare where you can buy your alcoholin Athlone compared to Manenberg, there isa very big difference,” says Allison Milan.

CONCERNED: Amos Bamoka says: “Resi­dents have valid concerns about the ele­ments it can attract. The house needs tobe monitored to ensure rules are obeyed.”

OBEY THE RULES: Rudene van Heerden says:“As long as the owner of the business sticks tohis operating times and the conditions of his li­cence, I don’t foresee a problem.”

SUPPORTIVE: Perry Dauti says: “I have neverhad any problems with my local shebeen ownerand I don’t have a problem with him openingup a legal liquor outlet in my area.”

THINK OF IT AS A GIFT HORSE AND YOU’REABOUT TO LOOK IT IN THE MOUTH

SUMMER JACOBS

A sense of comfort pervades StAnne’s Home in Woodstock.

The sound of children’s laughterand women walking about barefootgives an air of homely reassuranceinstead of it being a place of refuge.

Based in Woodstock for over 100years, St Anne’s has been servingthe public since 1904. Their 108thbirthday last Friday went downwithout much fanfare. They don’thave the cash.

It is hard to conceive the mothersand children living at the sheltershare a background of abuse andneglect. Their smiles and chatter donot resemble society’s stereotype of

destitute women. Most of the wom-en and children were camera-shyand preferred to stay out of the me-dia limelight.

St Anne’s Home director JoyLange says board members had theintention of creating a homely envi-ronment when they transformedthe corner house on Balfour Streetinto a shelter.

Lange says: “The original StAnne’s Home was situated in Chap-el Street and had an institutionaldormitory style. When board mem-bers bought the house on BalfourStreet in the middle 1990s they hadthe idea of creating a homely styleof living”.

This homely living is evident inthe set-up of the bedrooms which

have both beds and cots. The crècheis across the passage so mothershave peace of mind, knowing theirchildren are close by and safe.

Lange explains a block of flatsnext to the shelter was put up forsale a few years ago. The home thenpurchased that property and wasable to create the spacious shelternow spreading across four plots.

This has also provided them withthe opportunity of creating areasdedicated to, among others, grouptherapy, workshop sessions and acomputer room.

StAnne’sHomeoffers shelter andcare to women and their childrenfor four to six months. They providethe women with accommodation,three meals a day and clothing inexchange for R70 a month. This feealso includes services to them andtheir children.

A social worker facilitates coun-selling, along with an array ofworkshops and training skills.Women who are cash-strapped are,however, not turned away.

Lange points out that the positiveparenting skills programme is a fa-vourite among the women.

The programme revolves aroundinstituting discipline and establish-ing healthy boundaries betweenparent and child. Lange says 90% ofthe women they serve “have notbeen parented properly”.

To this end, “the workshop teach-es mothers to deal with situationsin a proper manner, for example bynot shouting at their children orputting them down”.

St Anne’s is currently home to

nine mothers and 14 children.Once every quarter they try to or-

ganise an outing for the women andchildren to enjoy themselves. “Wetake them to the beach, the zoo orthe movies. I remember a whileback a staff member took some ofthe women to the movies. One wom-an was brimming from ear to earwhen they returned. She exclaimedthat it had been eight years sinceshe had been to the movies,” saysLange.

“So everyday things we take forgranted are highly appreciated bythese women who are largely from

low- skilled and low-educationbackgrounds.”

The Home also extends its servic-es to foreigners, although, saysLange, it presents difficulties, suchas food preferences and communi-cation barriers. A special fundrais-ing evening is planned for Tuesday15 May with the comedy show Fun-ny Business at Theatre on the Bay,in Camps Bay, featuring Alan Com-mittie and Robery Fridjhon. Theshow starts at 20:00 and free snacksand wine will be served from 19:00.To book, contact Tashmin or Lor-raine on (021) 448 6792.

Be goodWith Mother’s Day fast approaching, it maybe hard to reconcile this city’s statistics forwomen and child abuse.

Let the facts speak for themselves.A 2004 study by the Medical Research Coun-

cil found that four women each day are killedin acts of femicide by known perpetrators,particularly intimate partners. This means awoman is killed every six hours.

This number makes up half of the womenmurdered in SA. It is the highest rate yet re-ported in research worldwide, says the re-port.

The Women’s Hope Education and Train-ing (Wheat) Trust has found that one out ofevery four women in South Africa is in anabusive relationship. Every 25 seconds awoman or girl is raped in South Africa.

These statistics paint a devastating picturefor the safety of women and children in ourcountry.

Enter valiant attempts at redress throughorganisations such as the Saartjie BaartmanCentre for Abused Women and Children, inAthlone. This centre now faces closure.

Their coffers are bare. They need help –even if all you do is reach for the cheque book.

Abuse transcends barriers of culture, back-ground, income and religion.

This centre offers a lifeline to thousands ofwomen – not only on the Cape Flats, but toabused women and children all over. It offerscounselling and a safe haven through twophases. The first is short term, while phasetwo – which offers housing – is up to a year.

There is a dearth of such facilities in thiscity and the country. It would be a travestyfor the Saartjie Baartman Centre to have toshut its doors.

The iconic woman for whom the centre wasnamed suffered humiliating depravity.

It is said bad things happen when good peo-ple do nothing.

Come now Cape Town, be good people!

Your SMSes. I read with interest your frontpage story “Truckers ordered tomove” and wonder how it is thatMillstock second-hand car dealergets away with opportunisticallytaking up all the parking on LowerMain Road at the Main Road, Ob-servatory intersection, blockingrush hour traffic and illegally park-ing on the pavement at KFC? It isbaffling that they are never ticketedand that this stretch of road is notsignposted for no parking duringthe rush hour periods, especially inthe afternoons when, because ofparked cars, two-way traffic is bot-tlenecked. Millstock should alsopay a parking fee for using all theparking in an area already trafficcongested and which is, as a result,unavailable to other businesses pa-trons and residents. When are thetraffic police going to start ticketingall cars parked illegally there and inthe rest of Obs, like under the ‘noparking’ signs in the Sussex Roadcul de sac? Fed-up, Obs resident.

. Do the organisers – Itheko andPeople’s Post – have no shame tosponsor the “Slave route chal-lenge”? Are the memories of ourforebears now being rememberedin a fun run and walk? How do youtell your children about slavery?That it was a fun thing? Do you havethe guts to do the same for June 16?I do not think so.

. I wish the six tenants in myhouse reads your letter. The fourchildren, aged 24-32, lay and play

DVD games 24 hours a day and eatall they see. Ma and Pa work andsay the children can’t find work be-cause they have no experience orthey blame affirmative action. Myson joined the police and proudlywore his blue uniform for 15 years.He went to a security firm for fiveyears, packed his bag, kissed megoodbye and has been a warehousemanager in Auckland for the pasteight years. He has been to visitthree times.

. Is this normal Islamic “Mus-lim” practise for a business to betrading inside a store while it is ju-ma time? The owner runs off, sitsin mosque while business is boom-ing inside on Freedom Day? Irre-spective, most if not all other butch-ers were closed for the juma dura-tion. Just goes to show,money is theultimate ruler for some peo-ple.What a shame to the dean. Thisshop should have started closing itsdoors from 12:00 already. So what’sthe excuse? I was in the shop.

. The DA is not a party for all, be-cause many of their supporters inCape Town – especially on the CapeFlats – are against their black coun-terparts.

. According to the Federation ofHospitality in Southern Africathere is no legislation on tipping inSouth Africa. Therefore, it is notthe right of awaitron.A tip is rathera privileged reward for excellentserviceduringameal. It is a free giftfrom a customer and can be givenat his discretion should he so desireand the amount is also determinedby him.

Don’t waste ratepayers’ moneyTHE harsh economic climate hasresulted in ever increasing wasteand rubble being dumped illegallyon virtually every street corner oropen space in Kensington and Fac-treton.

This causes ill health and injuryand the spreadof diseases and infec-tions among residents and our chil-dren by allowing vectors to breedand thus adversely affect the quali-ty of life.

Clearing illegal dumping is an ex-tremely costly exercise, money thatcould’ve been spent on improvingamenities such as community facil-ities, parks and children’s playgrounds.

For this reason the City has em-barked on a drive where residentscan report details of dumped mate-rial and offenders to the solid wasteby-law enforcement unit on(021) 400 6157, or call the City’s cus-tomer care line on 086 010 3089, orvia email to [email protected].

You can also contact your localenvironmental health practitioner(EHP) SF Jenkins during officehours on (021) 514 4144/53.

Builders rubble up to a load of 1,3ton per person that is free from pa-per, plastic, wood, glass, metal andhazardous waste will be acceptedby the City’s drop-off facilities at

Beach Road, Woodstock; Fifth Ave-nue De Grendel, Parow; and Indus-trial Ring Road, Ravensmead.

The City’s solid waste branchplans to have a workshop or semi-nar in the new year to explore andinvestigate alternative options forbuilders rubble as recommended interms of the section 78(3) process.KENFAC building contractors andtransporters are hereby requestedto contact your local EHP to createan address list to improve commu-nication between various role play-ers.DONOVAN FORBESKensington/Factreton HealthCommittee

Train to killMOST people over 40 would muchrather take the train if they had theassurance of not being attacked,beaten or even raped.

To go to work by train would berelaxing and you would be savedfrom having to find parking, pay formonthly parking and terrible traf-fic jams.

But the trains are not safe or reli-able.

They are being burnt out, peopleare knifed, thrown out of movingtrains, killed, maimed and evenshot.

So who wants to take the train un-less a safe way to protect people canbe found?

I remember using the train and itwas always safe, even during theworst demonstrations of the past.

But this is a whole new elementof people that are in for the kill. Itgives them a high.

They are tik users and drug abus-ers and they need bigger and biggerhighs all the time.

Those are the people that must becaught first and the rest is easy.

Where do the drugs come from?People will take the train again

because it is easy and comfortable.I also remember when the train sta-tion was orderly and clean, and peo-ple behaved in an orderly mannerbut that was before the Nigeriansflooded South Africa with drugs.

I say yes to Metrorail, if they pro-vide safety to get into the city andnot into the cemetery.RALPH KRALL

POSTCARD perfect andiconic Table Mountain, nowofficially one of the world’sseven natural wonders, isexpected to bring more localand foreign feet and boosttourism in the Mother City.

Table Mountain’s status asone of the New Seven Wondersof Nature has become officialafter an international auditconfirmed the result of a globalvoting process.

In her announcement, City of Cape Townmayor Patricia de Lille described the title as“a great accolade for a unique wonder of na-ture that belongs to all the people of CapeTown, South Africa, Africa and the world.The New Seven Wonders title has great long-term marketing value for Cape Town andSouth Africa. The wonder becomes part ofschool curricula, it becomes a “must-see”and “bucket list” item for travellers and ex-plorers.” The New7Wonders Foundation,which is based in Switzerland and regulatedunder Swiss law, has confirmed that TableMountain’s “provisional” status after inter-national voting closed on 11 November hasbeen changed to “official”. Hundreds of mil-lions of votes had been cast for 28 finalistsacross the world and all of these numbershad to be verified.

De Lille says an official inauguration willbe held. “An impressive commemorativeplaque will be officially presented by theNew7Wonders Foundation. Table Mountainis unique among the Seven Wonders in thatit is in the heart of the city. The others area distance away from main centres. TableMountain is a marvel of history, geology, bio-diversity and it even has a stellar constella-tion named after it.”

The other six wonders are the Amazon for-est in South America, Halong Bay in Viet-nam, the Iguazu Falls in Brazil and Argenti-

na, Jeju Island in South Korea, Komodo Is-land in Indonesia and the Puerto Princesaunderground river in the Philippines.

De Lille thanked everyone who voted forTable Mountain, adding that the City “willwork closely with the South African Nation-al Parks (SANParks). They are responsiblefor managing Table Mountain as one of ourcountry’s national parks”.

The Official Supporters Committee start-ed the Vote for Table Mountain campaignthree years ago at the first of three roundsof voting. They approached the City for sup-port in the final round of 28 when the cam-paign needed a major thrust.

Sabine Lehmann, chairperson of the TableMountain official supporters committee,said the official confirmation would providea significant boost to the South African tour-ism industry. Lehmann said visitor num-bers to the mountain “reached record num-bers” when the mountain was named on theprovisional list of seven sites last November,and “we expect the official confirmation tofurther boost visitor interest locally andabroad”.

SANParks regional general manager Garyde Kock said “we value that this award recog-nises SANParks’ significant investment inthe natural heritage of this beautiful moun-tain chain and that conservation adds valueto the tourism economy.”

Cue scandalous flirtation, mis-taken identities, skimpy clothes,double-entendres and all-round sil-liness that will have you in gigglesand guffaws.

PUPILS using the train have toget up earlier to make it to schoolon time.

That’s the advice from educationminister Donald Grant.

Grant, together with Minister ofPublic Works and Transport, RobinCarlisle, last week made awhistlestop at the Golden Acre in theCity Bowl to determine the impact oftrain delays on pupils.

Many pupils using the trains cutthrough the Golden Acre to get toschool on time.

Delays in train schedules due to,among others, cable theft and faultysignals, have last week preventedpupils and workers from getting totheir destination on time.

An education department clamp-down on late-coming at schools haveproven a difficult task as a result oflate trains.

Grant says: “I have often receivedcomplaints from pupils that delayson Metrorail trains were the causeof them being late. While I am fully

aware that many of these learnerssimply do not wake up in time, onehas to feel sympathetic for thoselearners who did plan to get to schoolon time, but were delayed becausethe train was late.”

Grant says he roped in Carlisle tosee first-hand how late Metrorailtrains affected “one of their biggestclients, the pupils”.

Scholars told them trains were fre-quently late on rainy days, Thurs-days and Fridays.

“My message to learners is toplease take these delays into consid-eration when planning to travel toschool. Wake up a bit earlier on thesedays to make provision for delays.While it is unacceptable that theycan’t consistently rely on such aservice, this is the sad reality theyface. So, unfortunately, this couldmean getting up an hour earlier onthese days until Metrorail be-comes more organised and re-liable.”

Carlisle says: “The prevail-ing conditions of Metrorail’s

lack of access control and general se-curity, shortage of trains and an out-moded signalling system have madeit inevitable that the trains will notrun on time.”

He added that children not gettingto school on time “is one of the mostdestructive results of this situation,and we will pay for this for years tocome”.

“I am hopeful that recent attentionon the perilous state of decline intrain services has led to a renewedcommitment by Metrorail to tacklethe key issues.”

He also said he was optimistic thatrecent moves to restructure a single,united public transport partnershipwith the support of the City of CapeTown “will result in a vastly im-proved experience for our school-go-ing children, as well as our commut-ers”.

Catch early train, Granttells school children

PROFESSOR Ed Rybicki of theUniversity of Cape Town’s De-partment of molecular and cellbiology will give a free publictalk entitled “Influenza vaccines

LIAM MOSES

IN the four short years since its forma-tion, Itheko Sports Athletic Club hasgrown into one of the largest runningclubs in Cape Town and one of the mostwell-known.

The club started when its founder and cur-rent head coach, Farouk Meyer, decided topersonally train two heavily overweight ac-quaintances in 2008. Since then it has grownexponentially into the 1000-member running

force that it is today.However, despite this incredible growth

and the success of the club’s first race, theJive Slave Route Challenge, which will behosted for the second time on Sunday 27 May,Lion of Africa Itheko has stuck to its originalfocus of working with newcomers to thesport.

“The main reason (I started the club) is theinstances of ailments like cardio-vasculardisease, obesity and high blood pressure thatyou see around you all the time within ourcommunity,” says Meyer.

“All it means is that people need to do someform of exercise. Combined with eatinghealthily, it will make a difference. My big-gest letdown is that I don’t have enough timeto document the life-changing experiencesthat people have.”

The club started its speedy growth in sizeimmediately after Meyer took on his firsttrainees and once people witnessed thechange that the men had gone through.

At first the newly-formed club met andtrained at Rondebosch Common, but oncetheir numbers soared to around 400 they wereforced to move to the Rhodes High School inMowbray.

But the club has once again outgrown theirhome and today they will move to a new loca-tion in Willow Road, Observatory.

Meyer says that while the amount of mem-bers on Itheko’s books is impressive, what ismore important is the fact that most werecomplete novices before they joined.

“I have been running for the last 35 yearsbut four years ago I realised that there is noactual running club that caters for people

who have never done sport in their lives be-fore. “What is significant or phenomenalabout this running club is that 99 percent ofpeople who are members of this running clubhave never done sport before and they havetransformed their lives by getting healthyand fit through running.”

According to Meyer, Itheko is now the big-gest of the 85 running clubs affiliated to West-ern Province Athletics.

The club’s name, Itheko, means a big occa-sion in Xhosa, and over the last two years ithas become increasingly appropriate due tothe growth in size and the inception of theclub’s own road race.

But Meyer says the club aims to make any

runabig occasion for eachandeverymembertaking part.

“Most people come here and say ‘I cannotrun’. But what we say is that if you can walkyou can run. All we do is teach you the differ-ence between walking and running.

“The type of person who will enjoy beingpart of Itheko is a person that wants to makea difference in their lifestyle in terms of theirhealth. We’ll show you how to enjoy the sportand then you’ll enjoy all of the healthy bene-fits that come with the sport.”

People’s Post is the print media sponsor forthe Lion of Africa Itheko Jive Slave RouteChallenge. For further information or to en-ter the race visit www.itheko.org.

CAPE TOWN football legend and formerSantos head coach, Boebie Solomons, hasbeen appointed as the head of a pro-gramme aimed at improving and develop-ing football in Mitchell’s Plain.Solomons has assumed the role of directorof coaching at the Mitchell’s Plain LocalFootball Association (LFA).Along with assistant director, MelvinMacdecorney, he will take up the task ofensuring that all club coaches in the areahave the skills they need to nurture theabundance of talented young players theLFA believes is present in the area.According toSolomons, his first step sinceaccepting the post has been to help clubstake a more organised approach to coach-ing their teams.“Coaches don’t put enough time into or-ganising their coaching structures. So thefirst thing I did was set up a coachingstructure.“Now would be to set up the method ofcoaching; what is important to know atthe beginning and what to coach the dif-ferent age groups.“Like a school curriculum, you have to laya solid foundation, and once you lay thatfoundation you have to add to what it willtake to make a professional player.”Solomons’ appointment came about afterthe Mitchell’s Plain LFA and Santos Foot-ball Club, his fulltime employers, met todiscuss how the two organisations couldassist each other in promoting football.In order to get local coaches up to the leveldesired by the LFA, Solomons and Mac-decorney will be hosting coaching semi-nars and forums where they will give in-depth, technical lessons on how to coachplayers of every age group.“My biggest task is to try to empower thecoaches because they are eager and will-ing to do something, but don’t know whenand how to do it,” Solomons says.“I want to give them the tools and ideasso that when they go out during the weekthey know exactly what to do.”So far, four seminars have been hostedsince the project kicked off two monthsago. The coaching courses and Solomons’appointment forms part of a grand plan bythe LFA to help talented juniors toprogress to the professional ranks.Rezaan Jacobs, development officer at theLFA, who will be coordinating the project,

says that the area’s most talented playershave not progressed as they should havein previous years.“We definitely believe that there is a lotof raw talent. I have been in coaching forthe past ten years and there have alwaysbeen players going to the Old MutualAcademy, Ajax, Santos itself and Vasco daGama but we never hear from them after-wards.‘We have all the players here, but we ha-ven’t equipped the coaches to deal withthe players we have.”Jacobs added that improving coachingwas just the first phase of the plan to devel-op football in the area.The LFA has also invited all coaches fromMitchell’s Plain and those from otherLFAs around Cape Town to join the cours-es at no cost at all.Anyone interested in findingoutmore cancontact Ricky Burns on 084 531 8884 orJacobs on 084 8887517.

IKAPA SPORTING will head into the lastthree matches of the Vodacom League burst-ing with confidence after recording anotherin a series of stunning results.The “Lions of Cape Town” have hit theirstraps at the perfect time after going througha mid-season slump at the beginning of theyear. On Friday they came from behind toclaim a 2-1 victory over promotion rivalsGlendene.During the first two months of 2012, Ikapasurrendered a glut of league points by conced-ing goals in the dying minutes of severalgames.Glendenewereoneof the teamswhomanagedto leave Ikapa’s home ground with a share ofthe spoils during that period, and the victoryon Friday night is testament to how much theside has improved since then.Shaun Pietersen, director of football at Ikapa,said the prospect of vengeance combinedwith the opportunity to deny one of theirtoughest competitors three points meant thatthe entire team was psyched up for the game.“That was probably the best result of the sea-son. It was a six pointer against a team thatwas competing with us for promotion fromthe onset of the league,” said Pietersen.“They are a very well set up, well coachedteam, and they have beaten the top sides al-ready. It’s very important for us to gaugewhere we are by beating the top teams andit tells us that we are a formidable team.“The guys, after being a goal down, showed

a lot of character to come back against a verygood outfit like Glendene. On the night webeat them tactically and technically. We actu-ally outwitted them and that was the secretof our win on Friday.”That Ikapa managed to pull off the victorywhile playing in rain, mist and biting cold onFriday night makes the result even more im-pressive.The three points gleaned from the game,leaves Ikapa nine points behind league lead-ers Milano United and tied on 48 points withtwo other teams.Ikapa and three other members of the top fivestill stand a mathematical chance of wres-tling the title away from Milano, but it’s un-likely that the Grassy Park-based side willlose their last three games.With some good fortune Ikapa could finishthe season in second or third at the end of theseason.Though the team’s aim was to win the leagueand secure promotion to the national first di-vision, a top three finish is an impressiveachievement for a side that is still part time.“Because we are a part time team we try veryhard to keep up with teams who are fulltime,” said Pietersen.“And obviously the teams with the big budg-ets are the top teams in the league.Ourbudgetis not close to theirs yet we are right up therewith them. Should we be full time we wouldbe way ahead of the pack.”Ikapa will play Royal Blues, Hanover Parkand champions elect Milano Sporting in theirlast three games.

Ikapa apply pressure to log leaders
