Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>The Kalahari and Garieb circuits were declared winners of the 2024 \/\/Kharas Governor\u2019s Cup in the netball and soccer categories, respectively, on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The tournament took place from the 01 to 03 March 2024, at the Rosh Pinah Scorpion Zinc Sports Park and saw four teams from the four circuits compete in the netball, rugby and soccer.<\/p>\n

The tournament aims to create regional teams that will always be battle-ready for inter-regional, national, and international sporting events.<\/p>\n

In the netball category, the Kalahari girls defeated the team from the Namib circuit 59-13 in the final game, while for soccer, Garieb defeated the Namib circuit 4-3. The rugby final was between PK de Villiers Secondary School and Suiderlig High School, both from the Kalahari circuit, and the final score was 16-5 in favour of PK de Villiers.<\/p>\n

The players of the tournament were as follows: Lumando Basson for soccer from Garieb, Ruaha Shekwaya for netball from Kalahari, and David Sakeus for rugby from Kalahari.<\/p>\n

Each of the best players walked away with N$5 000 in cash, sponsored by Rosh Pinah Zinc mine, while the mine pledged to support Shekwaya in her netball career going forward.<\/p>\n

Speaking as she officiated the tourney on Saturday, \/\/Kharas governor Aletha Frederick said sport is beyond the thrill of competition as it offers countless opportunities for the youth, adding that sport goes far beyond future opportunities of income as it serves as a shield, protecting the youth from the pitfalls of life\u2019s social evils, providing a haven and a place where young people can find purpose, discipline, and belonging.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not just about scoring goals; it is about scoring opportunities for a brighter future. Your participation in sport can open up a host of avenues for you; it can create employment for you in the future, opening doors for careers as athletes, coaches, administrators, and more,\u201d she stressed.<\/p>\n

PstBet is the main sponsor of the Governor\u2019s Cup, having pledged an amount of N$70 000 each year for the next three years towards the event. Other sponsors are Novanam Group of Companies, Sea Flower Group of Companies, Vedanta, RoshSkor Township, Rosh Pinah Zinc mine, \/\/Kharas Regional Council, Total Energies, Bank Windhoek, and First National Bank.<\/p>\n
