Coaching for township youngsters (published December 2015)

 

Innaugral Sports Day organisers have ripened the history of sporting in New Brighton with Community leaders coming up with this innovative idea to keep the sporting legacy going in the future.

2015 Rising Star award recipient and sports manager for NMMU Zanele Mdodana along with Andrew Mazina, Sidima Mooi and Wela Mtati have created a platform for a cricket and netball clinic at the New Brighton Oval on December 23.

The first attempt by the group, with cricketer Tando Qeqe and netball star Mdodana to the fore will ensure that sport continues to flourish in the area, giving children the chance to emulate those who have set the standard in the past.
