AnticrimeAnticrimeccaravaravananmovmoveses ononSAMANTHA LEE

@Samantha_Lee121

A mobile caravan will not be returningto the Turksvy Street park.

This is the message issued by theLentegeur police management.

Station commander Colonel ElizabethHermanus says the mobile anti-crime unitwas originally stationed at the park to pro-tect the community from the scourge ofdrugs and gangs.

“We set up the caravan to make the parksafer. We were vigilant and told the commu-nity to come out and use the park,” she says.

Hermanus confirms that there were no in-cidents in the vicinity during the time thatthe van was stationed there.

“While we were there we forced the deal-ers and users to move out of the area to selland many of them were then caught withdrugs in their possession,” she says.

The van was officially removed on Satur-day 28 February.

This was as a result of a threat followinga mass march.

Hermanus says more than 250 residentsmarched to the caravan and demanded thatpolice have it removed.

“Thegroup toldus thatwewereprotectingdrug dealers and they were not happy aboutit. They threatened to damage the van and

petrol bomb it if we did not move the van,”she says.

Hermanus denies they were there to pro-tect the dealers. “We were there for the com-munitybutwemoved it because Iwas scaredfor my members’ safety. There was a threatand we took it seriously,” she says.

Now residents want the anti-crime mobileunit back. At a recent meeting Peter Hoff-man, chairperson of the Lentegeur WestRatepayers’ Association, questioned Her-manus about the caravan’s removal (“Policecome under fire”, People’s Post, 7 April).

Hermanus at the time explained that resi-dents did not want the caravan to be there.

Hermanus explains to People’s Post thatresidents became frustrated with the offi-cers.

“My instruction to the officers was to staythere at the caravan as they cannot leave thevan alone. They were there for observation

of the park and the area. There was also noelectricity in the caravan and so I told themto sit in the police van at night. They alsocould not leave with the patrol van becausethere was no electrification to the caravanand it could easily be a setup if they wereto leave alone,” Hermanus says.

She explains that residents did not takekindly to this.

“When there is an incident the officers sta-tioned at the caravan were to call the stationfor back up. They could not leave theirposts,” she says. This was a problem for ahandful of residents who complained to thestation.

“They said they saw the officers watchingsoccer or movies and they didn’t attend tocomplaints. This is not what they were therefor. But because of it they say we are thereto protect the drug lords,” she says.

Major General Abraham Goss took the de-

cision to bring in the mobile unit after con-fiscating R1200 worth of drugs in January.

Lentegeur police and the Mitchell’s Plaincluster tactical response team stationed thepolice caravan on the tarmac after growingconcerns that children were being exposedto drugs and violence.

“The children’s safety is important to usand we want them to feel safe. Parents mustalso rest assured that they are safe on theirway home from school,” Goss said in the pre-vious report.

Theplaypark is surroundedby twoprima-ry schools and has been overrun with drugabuse and violence, police say.

Although the problem is still evident, Her-manus says she will not expose her officersto dangers following the threat.

Hermanus adds that the caravan has beenreturned to the Mitchell’s Plain police sta-tionandwill not be erected at theparkagain.

Nature reserves gain partnersMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

The formation of committees to overseeprotected areas across Cape Town hasbeen tabled.

Reports sent to several subcouncils acrossthe southern suburbs called for councillorsto be nominated for these new committees.The report covers 17 nature reserves and

natural environments across the city and in-cludes popular sites like False Bay NatureReserve, Zandvlei Estuary Nature Reserve,

Wolfgat Nature Reserve and the Edith Ste-phens Nature Reserve.According to a report tabled at the sub-

councilmeetings theProtectedAreaAdviso-ry Committees (PAAC) exist to facilitate aparticipative approach in the management

of protected areas and to represent all stake-holders.The committees’ objectiveswill be to facil-

itate interaction between the managementof these areas and the surrounding commu-nities and to develop strategic partnerships.

The report also says the committees willaim to serve as a communication channeland assist with the implementation of man-agement plans.The committees will be statuary bodies

formed under the National EnvironmentalManagement Act.According to the report the constitution of

the PAAC was finalised in November andpublic participation for nominations closedin March.According to the constitution, the commit-

tees are advisory bodies rather than deci-sion-making bodies.Theywill consist of communities, council-

lors, ward communities and user groups.Theymay also include other affected and in-terested parties such as academic and re-search institutions, nature-based recreationbodies and tourism stakeholders.Themembers of each committeewill serve

a three-year term after which theirmember-shipwill be reviewed and the City can eitherrenew or terminate their membership andrequest new nominations.The PAAC will have a maximum of 20

members and a minimum of six.The report recommends two councillors

be nominated to serve on the committeeswhich fall in their respective subcouncil are-as.In the South Peninsula subcouncil, coun-

cillors Shaun August and Patricia van derRoss were nominated to serve on the FalseBay Nature Reserve committee. CouncillorsDave D’Alton and Elton Jansen were nomi-nated to serve on the Zandvlei Estuary Na-ture Reserve committee.In the Rondevlei subcouncil, councillors

Marita Petersen and Clive van der Merwewere also nominated to the Zandvlei Estu-ary Nature Reserve committee.In the Mitchell’s Plain subcouncils, coun-

cillors Sheval Arendse, Daniel Christians,MariaWeavers and LungileMaci were nom-inated to serve on the Wolfgat Nature Re-serve committee.According to the resolutions for subcoun-

cil 15, councillors Bernadette le Roux andPatrick Chapplewill serve on the committeefor Table Bay Nature Reserve.Rondevlei subcouncil manager Okkie

Manuels says councillors Thembinkosi Pu-pa and Andile Dube were nominated for theEdith Stephens Nature Reserve committee.

Streetlights better on, says CitySAMANTHA LEE

@Samantha_Lee121

Streetlights have been kept alight inBeacon Valley as a deterrent followingnumerous cable thefts and vandalism

in the area.People’s Post has been informed of street-

lights kept on in Alpine Street and on anopen field in Lords Street but also through-out Beacon Valley.

A resident, who asked not to be named,says he is concerned that the cost to keepthe lights burning may directly affect theratepayers’ pockets.

This is a misconception, says Ernest Son-nenberg, mayoral committee member forutility services, as the lights are kept on andmanaged by the City of Cape Town.

“The cost of keeping the lights on is minorcompared with the cost of having to repairor replace infrastructure that has been van-dalised. The cost of the reinstatement ofthese services can be in excess of R25 000 forone incident,” he says.

The lights referred to by the residents arefive floodlights on the open field in LordsStreet and all the streetlights in Beacon Val-ley. The resident’s concern was that theCity did not know the lights were still on.

“Yes, [we are aware that the lights areburning]. The City controls both the street-lights and public lighting in this area,” hesays. The floodlights were installed at the

request of residents. “[These floodlightswere installed] to improve the safety ofthose crossing the field. They are kept onin order to prevent vandalism, which hasbeen an issue in the past,” he says.

Although the lights are kept burning tofend off cable thieves, there are steps resi-dents can take should they want the lightsswitched off during the day. “Residentsshould discuss this with their ward council-lor or broach this at their local subcouncil

meetings,” Sonnenberg says.He asks residents to bear in mind that

lights are kept on during the day as a deter-rent to thieves. “It must be emphasised thatthe cost of reinstating the infrastructuredwarfs the cost of keeping the lights on 24hours a day. Given the prevalence of van-dalism in this area, keeping the lights on isa significantly better economic decision.”V Starting with the word “Mpost”, SMS your viewsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.

The City of Cape Town says Beacon Valley residents should not be concerned by the street-lights burning in the area during the day. PHOTO: SAMANTHA LEE

SOUTH PENINSULA

Subcouncil crawlsforward on emptyMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Community organisations in the SouthPeninsula subcouncil, which includes Vry-grond, Lavender Hill and Strandfontein,are being called for input.

At the monthly subcouncil meeting,dwindling attendance at the meetings wasraised as a concern.

According to the City of Cape Town’s web-site, ward committees are made up of tenrepresentatives of various community or-ganisations who meet with the ward coun-cillor to discuss local issues. These includecivic-based organisations, faith-based orga-nisations, education, youth and sports.

Speaking after the meeting, subcouncilchairperson Felicity Purchase explainedmany had resigned from the committeesdue to other obligations while others hadjust not attended meetings.

“We are struggling to make quorum andwe need more organisations to come for-ward. The ward committees are a platformfor organisations and interested groups to

raise their concerns and receive regular up-dates,” she says.

Purchase further explains the committeemembers are responsible for sharing infor-mation with their organisations.

To be a part of the committee, organisa-tions are required to register with the sub-council.

According to the rules for the election andestablishment of ward committees, theward councillor is the chairperson and de-termines the composition of the committeebased on the list of registered organisa-tions.

Councillors have to ensure that it fairlyreflects ward demographics and the sub-council has to endorse the ward council-lor’s proposal.

Purchase explains that depending on theinterest from organisations, the composi-tion can be adjusted.

“Once we have assessed who is willing toparticipate we can find a way to accommo-date them,” she explains.

Political parties may not be elected ontothe ward committee.

Body found on farmPolice are calling on witnesses to comeforward after the discovery of a decom-posing body on a farm in Philippi.

Police were called to the farm on Tues-day last week, says spokesperson Lieu-tenant Lance Goliath.

“A passerby discovered the decom-posed body lying on the farm. The gen-der and age will be determined by a pa-thologist,” he says.

The cause and motive for the death isyet to be determined.

Police urge the community to reportit if relatives or acquaintances go miss-ing.V Anyone with information on this incidentshould call detective Constable Zane Kwatiyo on073 550 0272 or 021 690 1527.

Roads to get makeoverSeveral heavily used roads in the southernsuburbs will get a facelift.The total value of the road improvement

projects is about R170m, says Brett Heron,mayoral committee member for transport.“Themajority of these projects are taking

place in areaswithhistorical backlogs of in-frastructure provision and where the needfor improved roads, sidewalks and publictransport facilities is the greatest,” he says.“These projects entail the construction of

sidewalks in Grassy Park, the upgrading ofpedestrian facilities and roads in Athloneand Eerste River, the upgrading of concreteroads in Gugulethu and major resurfacingand rehabilitation along Jakes GerwelDrive and Weltevreden Road in Philippi.”The upgrades will be done as follows:

. In Grassy Park sidewalks will be builtalong sections of Perth and Italian Roads,Rooikrans Avenue, Fisherman’s Walk andPrince George Street to the value of R4m.The sections alongPerthRoad andPrince

George Street are completed, those alongItalian Road and Rooikrans Avenue willcommence in May and the section alongFisherman’s Walk is nearing completion.. In Athlone the improvement of pedestri-anwalks andwheelchair access alongAden

Hard nightSAMANTHA LEE

@Samantha_Lee121

They waste no time getting to work ona steel gate as they attempt to raid a sus-pected drug dealer’s home in Tafelsig

West.Before the van has stopped they are at it

with a sledge hammer, trying to get in.The Tactical Response Team (TRT) has

been trained to dealwithhigh-profile crimesand are prepared for all possibilities.

Once in through a side gate the officerswaste no time securing the perimeter fortheir search.

During a special operation with the com-munity safety structures on Thursday lastweek, houses were raided for drugs in theMitchell’s Plain policing area.People’s Post accompanied the police on

their search of five houses between 18:30 and23:00.

During that time eight people were arrest-ed for possession.

Police spokesperson Sergeant JeromeVoegt says the operation was about commu-nity participation.

“Our aim is to impact drug operations.Weeding out dealers is a lengthy process.With this operation we wanted to get thecommunity on board,” he says.

More than 100 residents and volunteersjoined the police on the operation. Theywere also accompanied by the provincial po-lice helicopter. Voegt says it was a “success-ful turnout representing all sectors in thepo-lice precinct”.

The residents led the procession, arrivingat the houses first.

“No more drugs,” the group chanted.Ten to twelve vans from all over the police

cluster accompanied the TRT van to thehouses in Tafelsig West, Rocklands, LostCity, Hyde Park and Westrigde.

The first arrest was made in Lost City.“While on patrol police received informa-

tion that drugs were being sold at a home inJoan Street,” Voegt tells People’s Post.

Two men, aged 26 and 32, were arrested asthey were found in possession of mandrax.

The second set of arrests was of a 25- anda 55-year-old man at a home in Tafelsig West.Mandrax and dagga stoppe were found in awendy house there.

This was followed by more arrests inRocklands. As the chopper circled the Loni-an Street home, officers walked out with twomen and a woman after a search.

Officers had found dagga and mandraxand arrested a 22-year-old man and anothertwo who claimed to be 16 years old.

The formal operation had started at 14:00on Thursday last week and ended at 02:00 onFriday.

Several other suspected drug houses weresearched, which led to an additional sevenarrests.

The first arrest cameat 15:30whenofficersarrested a 27-year-old foreign national intown centre.

He had attempted to shoot a fellow Soma-lian when officers spotted him and found a7.65 pistol with 6 live rounds in his posses-sion. Just after midnight officers followedup on information that drugs were beingstored at a house in Korfbal Street, BeaconValley. Suspects aged between 14 and 47were arrested.

During the operation 123 heroin units, 15mandrax tablets, five half mandrax tablets,16 dagga stoppe and 13 small packets of tikwere confiscated.

Grade 7s to show off reading skillsGrade 7 pupils are to compete in areading competition at librariesacross the city.The seventh annual competition

includes 73 libraries and thousandsof pupils.Participating schools hold elimi-

nation rounds. Thewinners from thelibrary rounds advance to the dis-trict rounds, then on to the finals.Only 18 pupils will make it to the fi-nals.The library rounds are set to end

in August, with the final scheduledfor September.They are competing in the three of-

ficial languages in theWesternCape,explains Belinda Walker, mayoralcommittee member for communityservices and special projects.“The competition addresses read-

ing challenges and helps to build re-lationships between local librariesand schools. We are committed to de-veloping reading skills and encour-aging a reading culture among ourchildren. Literacy is a gateway to op-portunity so competitions like thisallow us to truly make progress pos-sible, together with our young resi-dents,” she says.“Reading helps children to im-

prove language and listening skills.It improves fluency, which helps pu-pils become confident speakers whoare able to express themselves coher-ently. It also strengthens their abili-ty to comprehend information andconcepts.“Improved reading abilities can

lead to marked improvements in achild’s performance in other sub-jects as they’re able to read and un-derstand instructions,” she says.Pupils who are interested in par-

ticipating must approach theirschools, who in turn can liaise withtheir local libraries for details.

PEOPLE'S POST | MITCHELL'S PLAINTuesday, 5 May 2015 NEWS 9AWARDS CEREMONY

Volunteersthanked for helpSAMANTHA LEE

@Samantha_Lee121

The Mitchell’s Plain Community PoliceForum (CPF) has honoured the un-sung heroes who offer up their time to

keep their communities safe.At a night focused on the neighbourhood

watch, street committeemembers, CPF vol-unteers and the public, awards were givenforbravery, dedicationandefforts in seeingan end to the crime scourge in the area.A total of 250 volunteers were invited to

the event on Saturday 25 April.CPF chairpersonAbie Isaacs says the ini-

tiative is important to ensure the volun-teers feel appreciated. “We wanted thesevolunteers to come and relax and have agood time. Many of them spend so muchtime on the streets confronted with crimedaily,” he says.This is the third awards ceremonyhosted

by the CPF, this one being the first in theCPF’s new five-year term. The forum saysit is already coming together to plan thenext one set to take place inApril next year.Head of Crimeline Yusuf Abramjee at-

tended the event as keynote speaker.“Are we free from crime?” he asked.

“There is still too much blood being shedin South Africa. I call it the three Bs. Blood,bodies and bullets.”He challenged the volunteers to reach a

5000 headcount by the end of the year, achallenge the CPF accepted. There are cur-rently 3500 volunteers, says Isaacs.Abramjee encouraged the volunteers not

to give up. “Sooner or later we will win thewar again crime. Lead the war againstcrime,” he urged.CPF deputy chairperson Ashley Potts

am also expressed his gratitude to the vol-unteers andurged themto continuehelpingpolice in the fight against crime.“We must leave no corner for crime to

hide.Wewant the community to be free andchildrenmust walk free but wewill not winifwe continue to point fingers.Wemustmo-bilise and I will master all the resourcesavailable to me and we will take back ourstreets,” he says.Each volunteer received a certificate.

What does it mean to be a man?A few decades ago, masculinity meant working hard to

earn an honest living and provide for your family.It meant leading your family in such a way that they

would follow your example.Masculinity meant protecting your family because you

loved them.But today, our ideas of masculinity have become

warped. We pressurise young men to earn big money, tolead fast lives and to achieve their goals no matter thecost. We have thrown family values out the window,replacing them with the images we see on TV.An honest living has been replaced by earning a quick

buck.Leadership has been replaced by dominance.Protection has been replaced by violence.Many young men today have little idea of the values

needed to raise a family, support their community orbuild a career.We can hardly blame them, with so many children

raised by single mothers.With no father figures to teach young boys how to be-

have, can we be surprised when they turn to crime andgangsterism or become abusive?The only providers they see are gangsters. Leadership

and protection have given way to domestic violence andsubstance abuse.Teaching boys to be responsible men is a task single

mothers cannot do alone. It needs the buy-in of the com-munity.Young boys need to see the men in their communities

as an example of responsible men, men who provide forand protect their families.They need to see men rolling up their sleeves and be-

coming involved with the community, imparting lessonsand providing an example to follow.

It’s time to call inthe presidentThis past weekend our community wasonce again in mourning as we laid torest four youngsters shot and killed inthe prime of their youth.Over the past few months we have

buried so many young people, all thevictims of gang warfare. Across ourcommunity boundaries we see andhear of the same – the killing of youngpeople, children and innocent citizens.As community leaders and organisa-

tions and service providers we havedone our utmost best to stem thisterrible wave of gang warfare in ourcommunities and on the Cape Flats.We have had peace marches, protest

marches, picketing, church services,imbizos, meetings . . . and so theendless list goes on.At most of these valiant attempts

and initiatives we had the minister(s),government officials and departmentspresent. We are presented (and bom-barded) with proposals and pro-grammes, all worth millions of rands,but still the bullets continue to fly,still people are dying, still our commu-nities are being held hostage by aminority group of thugs.

The reality is that the police arelosing ground. The enemy have more“resources” in funds, weapons andmanpower.It is time for the national govern-

ment and our president to step in. It’stime to put political differences aside,listen to the plight of our people andsend in the SANDF.It’s time to secure our communities,

provide the support the police needs,it’s now desperate times calling fordesperate measures.It’s our constitutional right to be

protected; it’s our right to call forhelp. If the defense force can bedeployed to address xenophobia, thenthe same can be done for us. This waris beyond xenophobia.We call on community leaders and

structures across the boundaries tojoin the Parkwood estate communityin this initiative to engage the nation-al government and the president onthis serious matter.It’s time to take back our communi-

ties.PASTOR PAUL PHILLIPS

Reading is ‘crucial’Excellent! Well done, Editor. You said itso well – reading is crucial, especially bychildren. With our good libraries there isno excuse not to read.

TESSA VAN ROOYENEmailEskom, you must answer for yourself

While we all know Eskom has majorproblems and that it is struggling to keepthe lights on, we also know that it is notour problem or fault!So why on earth should we be pun-

ished for its mistakes? I mean, seriously,how on earth can it put the power off foralmost five hours? What about stuff inthe fridges and freezers that can go off?Who is going to pay for that – Eskom?It doesn’t even have enough money to

keep the lights on, where will it still get

money to pay for damages?I would also like to know where is the

money going to? Every time you hear thegovernment gave so much and so muchto help Eskom and in spite of loadshed-ding, we still pay skyhigh for electricity!So please tell us, where is the money

going to? We have the right to know.After all, most of it is our hard-earnedmoney.

CYCLING

Tour D’Plain showsoff people and placeThousands of cyclists from the greater

Cape Town area came together to par-ticipate in the inaugural Tour D’Plain

Cycle Tour held on Freedom Day last weekto raise awareness of bone diseases.The tour started and ended at Strandfon-

tein Pavilion. Races were split into 10kmand 30km tours through the streets ofMitchell’s Plain and along the coastline.Ashwin de Klerk, the event organiser

said the Tour targeted people of all ages andencouraged residents, schools and cyclingclubs from Mitchell’s Plain, Khayelitsha

and the surrounding areas to participate.Abduragmaan Jonathan said the cycle tourwas “a fantastic family event for a goodcause”.Friends Rashid Asvat and Riaaz Davids

agreed that they enjoyed the event and thatthe Tourwaswell-organised. They also saidthe event went a long way to dispel mostlynegative perceptions about Mitchell’sPlain. The event showed the people and nat-ural beauty of the area in a positive light.They encouraged more cyclists to enternext year.

Several cyclists turn into Strandfontein Road for the final stretch of the Tour D’Plain CycleTour. PHOTOS: CLINT DIXON

The third annual 9Miles surfing competi-tion was a great success despite therain.

It was held at Strandfontein Pavilion onSaturday 2 May.There was much to do at community surf

challenge and family day from 08:30 to 17:30as this year the event included a treasurehunt and sandcastle competition for the chil-dren and environmental walk.There was also a drive about learning to

surf and learning to swim.Awater safety talk was another attraction

held by Strandfontein Lifesaving.Hundreds of residents were also treated to

a sea rescue demonstration by the Strand-fontein National Sea Rescue Institute.

Other attractions included a skateboard-ing competition, live music performances,kayaking lessons, Scouts obstacle course,beach volleyball, beach soccer and standuppaddle boarding.“Our goals for this event are to ignite in-

terest among the youth for our water activi-ty sports and to launch the skateboardproject,” says project founder Nigel Savel ina statement.“[We also want to] unite the community,

educate young people on the importance oflookingafter their beaches, encouragequali-ty recreational family time and for 9MilesProject to forge stronger ties with the publicand its partners.”People’s Post also attended the event.

Ranaldo Nakie of Aloe High School gets his pass away as Steenberg High School’s playerKeenan Kelderman tries to stop him during the MRP Foundation knock-out challenge forhigh schools at Westridge High School in Mitchell’s Plain this weekend. Steenberg won 2-0.The tournament finals will be played next weekend. PHOTO: RASHIED ISAACS

Byron Petersen of Mountview High School in Hanover Park heads the ball to safety asMondale High School player Rafiek James tries to execute an overhead kick.

Kommetjie’sMichael February finished sec-ond in the inaugural Martinique Surf Pro,a QS3000-rated event and the eighth stop onthe World Surf League qualifying series, onSaturday.

It was February’s best result in threeyears on the qualifying series, and earnedthe 21-year-old from Kommetjie $10 000(about R120 000). He also jumped 61 placesto No. 16 on the rankings, the highest by aSouth African. He was runner-up to JoshuaMoniz of Hawaii.

February, who posted one of the only twoperfect 10 point rides in the event during thequarterfinals on Friday, did not let an excel-lent score by Moniz on the first ride of thefinal alter his motivation and kept battlingall the way to the final countdown in searchof the 9.37 he needed to take the win.

“This is the best result I’ve ever had so I’m

super happy,” February said. “Unfortunate-ly that last wave didn’t give me enough todo enough turns and maybe I made a fewmistakes, but I tried my best and I’m superhappy to have put together a good contestagain.”

Moniz, 18, could not have started the finalany better, catching an excellentwave in theopening seconds, to deliver a series of excit-ing forehand turns and collect a 9.07. TheHa-waiian didn’t take his foot off the gas andcontinued to capitalise on every opportunityhe had to finally net an 8.87 as a backup andwin the event.

“I was so nervous going into that heat. Iknew to win it I’d have to get big scores,”Moniz said. “I’m so stoked, this is my firstqualifying series win. Coming off anotherwin in a pro junior in Hawaii I had a lot ofconfidence and I’m on kind of a roll so hope-

fully I can keep it going.”Despite posting big scores all week,Moniz

was in the underdog position up until hisquarterfinal matchup in which he dis-patched South African Beyrick de Vries.The Hawaiian then emerged as a potentialthreat for the event crown, and convincinglysurfed two more brilliant heats to take thetitle home.

“I got a lot of confidence from that winover Beyrick,” Moniz continued. “I thoughtif I beat himwell I canmaybe go all the way.Everyone’s been super nice and helpful hereand all the locals very supportive.My familyand friends have been staying up late aswellto watch me and texted me after every heat,I’m just tripping out I won.”

February opted to go local in terms of ac-commodation and stayed with a Martinicanfamily to immerse himself in the local vibe.

Supported during all his heats by an excitedcrowd, Februaryhaswon thehearts ofmanylocals.

“The people here are really good and theywelcomed me so nicely,” February contin-ued. “I’ve been getting really good food fromthe people I stayed with, tried new stuff andthey also drove me to all the little secretspots. It’s just been a beautiful experience,Imet some incredible people and I can’t waitto be back.”

In his semi-final February surprised ev-eryone – when needing 7.70 with just sec-onds remaining he opted to ride left on therighthand point. Taking to the sky as thewave closed out, he successfully landed ahigh-flying “Hail Mary” 360 aerial manoeu-vre that the judges rewarded with 7.87 anda spot in the final.

SKWalmers won Cape Town’s most pop-ular derby rugby match.Ashiq Wise’s Walmers side emerged

victorious in only the second derby sinceunification against old rival Primrose at theGreen Point track on Saturday.Although Walmers comfortably won this

Premier League A encounter 35-17, thematch was filled with excitement and ten-sion, both on and off the field.These two teams were big rivals before

unification when they contested for decadesin the Premier League competition of theCity and Suburban Rugby union in Craw-ford.Last yearwas the first time these two sides

met in a derby as both teamsplayed in differ-ent league competitions in the WP RugbyUnion before unification of the deferent ra-cially based rugby unions more than twodecades ago.Last year’s derby at Rosmead, home-

ground of Primrose, ended in a 25 all draw.This is Wise’s first victory in three games

inhis first seasonashead coachafter joining

the club last year as assistant coach. Wisehas had a long history with the club, havingplayed for the Bo-Kaap club as a craftyscrumhalf before embarking on a provincialcareer which would see him having a stintwith WP and the Pumas.For Walmers, Abubaker Davids, Madeeg

Davids, Jawaad Dramat, Mikaeel Hartley,Dawood Petersen and Bjorn Julies scoredtries while Yasfir David slotted over a con-versionwithGhakeemLarnie goaling a pen-alty.Primrose’s points came from tries by

NaceedoPetersen andJasonJantjies. Jantji-es converted his own try and a penalty.SK Walmer’s next match is on 16 May

when it takes on Villager at Brookside.Primrose will be up against the national

Community Cup champions Durbell at theDurbanville sportsground on Saturday.
