LOTUS RIVER: PREFAB DAYS NUMBERED
New start for Lotus River schoolsTAURIQ HASSEN
The future looks considerably brighterfor three Lotus River schools as theyenter a new era in newly-constructed
premises.In September, the Western Cape Educa-
tion Department (WCED) revealed the newinfrastructure plan for the 2013/14 to 2015/16period.Buck Road Primary, Die Duine Primary
and Zeekoevlei Primary schools are among46 other schools to be replaced.Bronagh Casey, spokesperson for educa-
tion minister Donald Grant, says replacinga school essentially means replacing theschool with a new brick and mortar struc-ture.“In most instances, the old structures are
made from wooden or prefabricated materi-als and were generally built during theapartheid era,” Casey says.
Whena school is replaced, a new structureis built on the school property. In someprojects, the new structure would be builtright next to the old one, which allows forpupils to continue using the premises.“In other instances, the provision of alter-
native accommodation, such as mobileunits, is required for pupils during thebuild-ing process. The old, inappropriate struc-tures are torn down tomakeway for the newbuilding,” Casey explains.The WCED’s infrastructure plan includes
the building of 46 replacement schools andthe roll-out of four replacement classroomprojects within a three-year period.“Using our Geographic Information Sys-
tem (GIS) and informationobtained fromthedistricts, we were able to ascertain whichschool buildings were in dire need of re-placement,” Casey says.Geraldine Herbert, principal of the 40-
year-old Buck Road Primary School, says
the school was handed a draft plan and staffimmediately became excited to see the endresult.The school faced several challenges in the
past, including classroom walls rottingaway.This caused an increase in the number of
pests forcing the school to fumigate class-rooms weekly. The old classrooms also hadwindows they could not open.“We are very glad we will have a new
school building for the children of LotusRiv-er, because they definitely deserve it,” Her-bert says.The school will have something they
“could only dream of” in the form of a schoolhall, which Herbert believes will be of bene-fit to the entire community.Die Duine Primary School principal Mar-
got Kiewiet says pupils had to endure ex-treme weather in their old prefab-styledschool building. This school was also estab-
lished four decades ago.Walls started rotting away and gaping
holes appeared in the classrooms.“Our aimwasalways to avoid teachingpu-
pils under such conditions, becausemany ofthem come from poor backgrounds wherethey live in shacks,” Kiewiet says.“It will be a pleasure to teach in suitable
conditions once the new building is com-plete.”When the school finally occupies their
new building, features such as a ScienceRoom, Music Room, Media Centre, Arts, aswell as a kitchen would be a first for DieDuine.“Weare grateful that the department is do-
ing this for us, but I wish this for otherschools in our community, because it is forour children,” Kiewiet says.Construction of the new schools are ex-
pected to be completed by year-end, but thismay be hampered by weather conditions.
NEW BEGINNING: Keys to morehouses were handed to beneficiaries at the Mama’s HousingProject in Pelican Park onThursday. A total of 15 residents were anxious to get thekeys to their new homes, butnobody was more excited than51yearold Latiefa Baadjiesfrom Retreat. After waiting for13 years and living in crampedconditions with her children andgrandchildren, Baadjies couldbreathe a sigh of relief. “Icannot really explain what I amfeeling. This is one of thosemoments I thought would nevercome,” she says, standing infront of her new Corrie Streethome. “I was told to ‘hang onand wait’. I don’t know howmany times I had to hear that,but it was all worth the wait.”The Mama’s Housing Project isnearing completion with only afew houses left to complete.Some beneficiaries had questioned the handout process andwondered when they will benext to receive their houses.Full story on page 5.

POVERTY: DAILY CHALLENGES OF LIFE ON THE STREET
Winter worries for destitute driftersTAURIQ HASSEN
Snuggled under a sparse blanketand struggling to find comfort ona wet, dismantled cardboard box,
he braces himself for the night ahead.As the rain continues to pour down,
Ashley van Bloom tries to keep warmunder the bridge he calls home.
The coals of the fire he and his“housemates” built with a plasticmilkcrate and branches glows as they seekheat around the brazier.
Ashley has been homeless all hislife. Over the years he has had to steelhimself against the natural elementsof a Cape Town winter.
And, despite August being known asthe Cape’s rainy month, it seems thefull wrath of the season has come ear-ly, and with it several cold fronts mov-ing across the peninsula since the be-ginning of this month.
Ashley and three other homelesspeople recently made the bottom of abridge along the M5 highway theirhome.
Homeless sincebirth, the 23-year-oldhad been abandoned by his parents inhis birthplace of Worcester.
“I started off with nothing and I stillhave nothing – no family, no friends,no money, not even a warm place tosleep,” Ashley says.
He’s never lived in an orphanage. By17, hewas stabbed for food three times,arrested for stealing clothing from astore and hospitalised for pneumoniaand dehydration.
“Life on the streets is not easy – I hadto learn it the hard way. I try to makethe best of my situation, but it’s hard.I am not giving up,” Ashley says.
Hehasneverhad the opportunity forformal schooling and his personal doc-uments were destroyed in a shack fire.
But this has done little to curb hishunger to learn. Ashley would jumpover a school fence and eavesdrop atclassroom windows during lessons.
Selwin Adams uses the same bridgeto shelter from the rain.
He started calling the streets hishome after running away to escape anabusive home.
“I would have done anything to getaway from my parents. Being on thestreets made me feel free and happy,”Selwin says.
“I experienced so much on thestreets. Now I tell myself I am going todie here.”
The 32-year-old has spent six yearsin jail, beenhooked ondrugs and aban-doned life as a gangster.
“Living on the streets is no joke, yetthere are people who take their livesfor granted. We don’t know where ournext meal will come from or if we aregoing tomake it through the night,” hesays.
“On the surface it may seem as if weare happy to live like this, but we arenot.”
Both Selwin and Ashley go door-to-door asking for food, clothes and blan-kets. They collect branches from openfields to start fires to keep warm andrely on disposed food to still the hun-ger pangs.
A study conducted by the City ofCapeTown thismonth shows that 7 000homeless people roam the streets ofCape Town.
Hassan Khan, CEO for the HavenNight Shelter, says demand rapidly in-
creases at shelters during winter.He says their shelters don’t close
their doors to the homeless. “We obvi-ously cannot take every homeless per-son at the shelter, but we try our bestbecause we know this is a very diffi-cult time of the year for them,” Khansays.
Field workers at the shelter assessthe person for the possibility of re-inte-gration into society.
“We speak to them and try to con-vince them to return to their familiesor homes,” Khan says.
Heurges the public to avoid handingout items to the homeless, as this willonly keep them on the streets.
Suzette Little, the Mayoral Commit-tee member for Social Developmentand Early Childhood Development,says an additional R200 000 has beenbudgeted for the street people pro-gramme in the City’s winter plan.
“The issue of persons living on thestreets will always be a complex, mul-ti-faceted social problem with diverseprecursors and risk factors,” Littlesays.
“Nobody wants to be out in the cold,wet weather during winter and, there-fore, the City has ensured thatwe havethe right partners to address the chal-lenges.”
She adds the programme aims to “ef-fectively reduce the number of peopleliving, sleeping and seeking substanc-es such as alcohol and illegal narcoticson the street”.
“A database of street people will becompiled so that we can effectivelyreach as many people as possible.”V Phone the City’s Street People call centre on0800 872 201.

RETREAT: ELDERLY ‘DEVASTATED’
Aged at the mercy of criminalsTAURIQ HASSEN
Residents at the Douglas Murray OldAge Home are at the receiving end ofcrime plaguing the greater Retreat ar-
ea.In recent months, the Home has become
a soft target for criminals. It was broken intotwice and the staff were forced to protect thehome.On Sunday 2 June, at 02:00, a man jumped
over thewall and tried tobreak into the laun-dry with a screwdriver. A second accom-plice kept watch outside.Fred Daniels, CEO of Douglas Murray,
says the Home has started working closelywith the community to try and remedy thesituation.“Our job here is to look after and care for
the people, but that becomes difficult whenyou have people running in and out of thehome,” he says.He explains that most of the problems are
encountered during the night shift and theHome wants to put in place “more sophisti-cated” security systems.Increasing the number of security person-
nel on the premises and installing propermonitoring systems are also priorities.“Unfortunately, we are lacking the funds
which is preventing us from introducingthese methods,” Daniels says.After each incident, he says, residents are
traumatised and in need of counselling.
Sister Clarence Alexander, Head of Nurs-ing at the Home, says residents are still re-covering.She says it is “devastating” for the resi-
dents to have criminals invading theirspace.Alexander says these incidents have an
immediate impact, which makes thingsharder for the nurses at the Home.“The residents don’t forget easily and get
over some of the incidents. They start stress-ing and thinking about these incidents. Wetry our best to keep them relaxed, but it isdifficult,” she says.Kevin Southgate, chairperson of the
SteenbergCommunity Police Forum, says issad to see the Home deteriorating and callsupon the community to lend a helping hand.He had been fully briefed on the security
concerns at the Home and understands theyface financial challenges.Southgate says they could form a business
forum and adopt the old-age homes in thecommunity.Meanwhile, Southgate approached local
neighbourhoodwatches to include theHomeon their list of places to patrol.An appeal has also beenmade to the Steen-
berg police to increase visibility at theHomeand the sector commander was requested tovisit the Home regularly for updates on thesituation.“Places such as Douglas Murray play
quite an important role in the communityand we must try and assist them. I wouldurge the community to help wherever theycan, because this Home has become quite animportant institution in Retreat,” saysSouthgate.V Anybody wanting to assist the Douglas Murray OldAge Home, can call (021) 712 2146. SAFETY FIRST: Residents at the Douglas Murray Old Age Home are a soft target for criminals.

NAME AND SHAME: CAMPAIGN ‘NOT HALTED’
What’s in a name?RICHARD ROBERTS
If Jeff Radebe does not react to a plea fromthe provincial Department of Roads andTransport, it may result in a court case.RobinCarlisle, the provincialminister for
Roads and Transport, said on Thursday thatRadebe, the minister of Justice and Consti-tutional Development, recently halted thedepartment’s Name and Shame Campaign.Through the campaign the names of driv-
ers convicted of driving under the influencewill be published. It is run by Carlisle’s de-partment, LeadSA and the Cape Argus.The campaign, which ended inNovember,
was launched to curb drunk driving.Carlisle discussed the decision to halt the
campaign with transport minister BenMar-tins on Thursday. “I want to ask him toplease address this matter with his col-league. If nothing comes of this, we will seeklegal advice,” Carlisle said.“Wewill likely launch an interdepartmen-
tal dispute and approach an advocate to ad-vise on the legal options.”Hector Elliot, a departmental official, said
the records of drunk driving are no longersupplied to them. These records were, how-
ever, made available to them earlier thisyear, but the content is vague.“(It only contains) the names and ID num-
bers, but does not indicate what the perpe-trator has done.”It is for this reason that they can no longer
publish the names, he said.Provincial traffic chief Kenny Africa said
about 25 drunk drivers were arrested week-ly during the campaign. “Since the cam-paign has stopped, there has been an in-crease of between 55 and 60 drunk drivers.”But Mthunzi Mhaga, Radebe’s spokesper-
son, said the department did not “halt” thecampaign, as Carlisle alleges.“There are measures which determine
that the information supplied be thoroughlyscrutinised in consultation with the Depart-ment of Transport, and that it does not in-clude cases which could be reviewed or ap-pealed,” Mhaga said.The department’s duty is to supply the
names and details of the penalty “which weare doing”.People’s Post took to the streets to hear
what readers thought of the campaign.V Share your views by SMSing the word “Post” fol-lowed by your message to 32516. SMSes cost R1.
TARQUIN DU PLESSIS says the initiative acts asa deterrent. “Government also needs to think ofharsher sentences. By driving, drunk people areputting other lives at risk too.”
ANTON ODENDAAL says the campaign shows thepotential. “If people see names in the newspaper, they’ll fear being next. But there are othercrimes which need more attention.”
NASEEMA HOOSAIN says the campaign has thepotential to attract negative attention. “The listcould become like a legends list where peoplewould want their names to appear.”
GADEAN BRECHT says naming and shaming isneeded. “It makes people think twice. When wehad the list, the number of drunk drivers on ourroads decreased from 100 to 25 each day.”
TSHOLOFELO MOLAWA remains sceptical anddoesn’t think the list changes anything. “Becausesomeone’s name is on a list does not mean it willstop them from drinking and driving.”
BARDO FRANSMAN says the list will helpwith drunk driving, but government shouldalso bring the credits system. “If a person iscaught drunk driving their credits becomefewer and when they reach zero their licensegets suspended for a year or two.”

PELICAN PARK: ‘NOBODY FORGOTTEN’
Keys jingle for new home ownersTAURIQ HASSEN
The Mama’s Housing Project is steadilydrawing to a close, but some beneficiar-ies are throwing a spanner in theworks
by questioning the hand-out process.Some beneficiaries claim to have been
waiting for plots for years and have been putoff by the sight of others receiving newhous-es.Khauthar Adams says she happy to see
people moving into their houses and thatthings are starting to change in Eagle Park,but the wait leaves her depressed.“I have been waiting for a long time and
I have friends that received houses, but hereI am still waiting. I don’t knowwhat is goingon and nobody seems to be giving us an-swers,” she says.
Adams believes the process currently be-ing conducted is “unfair and immoral”, asthere aremany she knows of who are receiv-ing houses and who have not been waitingthat long.“This cannot be right and I amupset about
it. We also want a place to call home and Ifeel we have been waiting for long enoughnow,” she angrily says.But Faheema Sabera, chairperson for the
Mama’s Housing Project, says the projectwill continue to cater for people earning be-tween R3500 and R7000.She says people who are currently receiv-
ing and waiting for houses all qualify for asubsidy.“We tried to accommodate everybody be-
cause this is a private project. Where thehanding over of the vacant plots is con-
cerned, we stillhave to try andwork it out,” Sab-era says.She adds that
“nobody has beenforgotten”, but ex-pressed concernthat they had foundseveral beneficiar-ies had initiallyjoined the projectunder false pre-tences.“I don’t under-
stand why thesepeople are onlymaking a noisenow, because somethem joined theproject with a lie.Most of them earnwell over R15 000 a
month and they hope to be getting subsi-dised houses. It’s just not right and we haveto focus on those who rightfully qualify forthese houses,” Sabera adds.In spite of various challenges, the project
has forged ahead (“Mama’s Housing: homesat last”, People’s Post ,6 June). A number ofnew residents have already settled into theirnew houses with around 60 more houses be-ing completed in due course.On Friday, 15 more houses were handed
over to beneficiaries, which brought aboutmore smiles in the community.SivaMoodley, CommunityLiaisonOfficer
for the project, says the project is still ontrack as more houses continue to be handedto eager occupants.“Most of the houses are being sorted out
and the project is still running smoothly,”he says.The project hit a slight snag after some
properties could not be accessed by thebuilders, but this has since been resolvedand the project was able to move continueapace.Meanwhile, at the Show Village, in 14th
Avenue, the City of Cape Town handed overthe keys for the first completed GAP andOpen Market houses in Phase 1 of the Peli-can Park Integrated Development.Pelican Park is situated between Zeekoev-
lei and Strandfontein roads, about 5kmnorth of the False Bay coast.The houses handed over on Wednesday
are in Phase 1 of a development that willeventually house 3200 people. Called On TheVlei (Market Housing) and New Horizons(GAP Housing), the new development is anintegrated development located in PelicanPark, adjacent to Zeekoevlei Lake andStrandfontein Road, and is spread over an80ha site.
Thedevelopment, a flagshipproject for theCity of Cape Town, is seen as a crucial inter-vention inpaving theway for futurehousingdevelopments in the city because it bringsaffordable housing to first-time home own-ers who would otherwise not have been ableto buy their own homes.Once completed, Pelican Parkwill include
more than 2100 State-subsidised houses, 696single-storey semi-detached GAP housesand 63 double-storey house shops fromwhich residents can operate small business-es.

STEENBERG: NIGHT SCHOOL GIVES THEM A FUTURE
Centre a lifeline for pupilsTAURIQ HASSEN
For just over 44 years, the SteenbergCommunity Learning Centre (CLC) hasbeen providing pupils with an opportu-
nity to take a second bite out of life throughits night school.
The school has faced anumber of challeng-es including drop-outs due to inadequatefunding, pupils being pressured by manag-ers, violence in various areas and transporthiccups.
Even so, registration is open for the nightschool, which runs from Monday 5 Augustthe end of June next year.
Sammy Williams, principal of the CLC,says there was a decrease in the number ofpupils dropping out of the school year.
“We’ve been able to provide pupils with asecond chance in life. We noticed a drop lastyear because pupils realised the importanceof getting a matric certificate,” he says.
The night school serves the communitiesof, among others, Retreat, Lavender Hill,Seawinds, Capricorn, Coniston andSheridon parks, Plumstead, Wynberg,Ocean View and even as far as Strandfon-tein.
A total of 222 pupils registered for the finalexamination this year, and in the last fiveyears more than 2150 pupils passed matric.
“In our current situation with gang vio-lence in the areas, unemployment and ac-tion against service delivery, we as the CLCrender a most valuable service to the com-munity,” Williams says.
In recent times, the provincial Depart-ment of Education had stopped funding theGrade 10 and 12 courses, but the CLC man-aged to keep the school doors open throughfees and fundraising activities.
The subjects are English, Afrikaans, Biol-ogy, Accounting, Business Economics,Mathematics, History, Biblical Studies, In-troduction to Criminology and SA CriminalLaw. From August, the CLC plans to intro-duce Travel and Tourism for the first time.
Former CLC pupil Sheldon Adams, fromWynberg, is in the process of obtaining anIT specialist qualification from UWC.
“I was forced to drop out of school becauseof family troubles and I immediately set outlooking for a job. It was hard, because every-where I went, they kept asking for a matric
certificate,” he says.“I landed up not getting a job and knew
then how important my matric is.”Adams had heard from a friend about the
Steenberg CLC and their successful passrate.
“I made this about me and I knew I am go-ing to have to be committed. There were lotsof things happening at the same time in mylife, but I made my matric the most impor-tant thing,” he says.
Anyone interested in completing theirmatric can register at Steenberg HighSchool on Mondays or Thursdays between18:00 and 21:00.
The registration fees is R350 and R300 persubject. Registration closes on Friday 20September.

PARKWOOD ESTATE: UPGRADE PLANNED
Talks paveway for sportsfraternityTAURIQ HASSEN
Frustrations amid the Parkwood Estatesporting fraternity have come to anend.
This is after delegates fromvarious sport-ing codes addressed one burning issue – ac-cess to the Hoosain Parker Sports Facility– with the City of Cape Town.Sporting codes were denied access to the
facility. This angered many as they wereforced to instead use the rundown facilitieson the outskirts on the sports ground inHoosain Parker Road.An angry Imraan Baderoen, whose son
plays soccer for the local team, says he is“disgusted” at the way youngsters are be-ing treated and by the continuous promisesmade by councillors.“The children have been training in ap-
palling conditions since forever, but astone’s throw away there are facilities thatare not being used,” he says.Baderoen says efforts were made to gain
access to the fields, but says they have been“hitting brick walls and listening to emptypromises”.“When it comes to the other sporting
codes like baseball and cricket, these facili-ties are readily available.“We wish to get some exposure to high-
light concerns so that the children can getat least a proper training area,” he says.Parkwood Estate resident Samantha
Friedericks says her daughter spends mostof her days dreaming of some day repre-senting her country at the World NetballChampionships.However, a lack of proper facilities could
see this dream slowly slipping away.“She plays netball every Sunday, but it
is a huge risk. That netball court is in such
apoor state and the girls arenot safe there,”she says.“I cannot seewhyproper facilities cannot
be made available because some the girls,likemydaughter, really enjoy the gameandwould like to take it further.”Friedericks has considered taking her
daughter to a more “fancy neighbourhood”to play, but was halted by her daughter.“She doesn’t just play the game because
she loves it, but she also loves the peopleand the atmosphere.“There is only one real solution and that
is to fixwhatwe already have,” Friederickssays.On Monday 10 June, delegates from dif-
ferent sporting codes, City officials, wardcouncillors and the local Facility Manage-ment Committee at the Hoosain ParkerSports Facility met to discuss a way for-ward.Proportional Representative councillor
William Akem says solutions were tabled.He says a mutual agreement had been
reached and all sporting clubs would be re-quired to attend ameetingnextmonth. Twodelegates from each sporting club will beasked to attend.Sporting representativeswill be required
to put in writing that they accept the re-sponsibility of the facility and have to re-quest permission to use the facility fortraining.“The meeting was quite successful and
we feel there is away forward asmany solu-tions were suggested,” he says.Akem confirms that the rundown soccer
field and netball court are due for an up-grade in the next financial year.The City will be looking at resurfacing
both facilities and upgrading the dressingrooms which have been vandalised.
Clampdown on crime in settlementLansdowne police extended the long arm ofthe law to Freedom Park informal settle-ment to reduce gang activities, as well asto stabilise and restrict movements of gangmembers.Joint operations with other LawEnforce-
ment agencies had successfully tackled thesituation and elements of gang activities inthe past five months.The focuswas on setting up vehicle check
points, doing stop-and-search and door-to-door campaigns, and executing search war-
rants. The police also ensured visibility inFreedom Park.Arrests were made for attempted murder
and possession of a firearm.Police will identify and recruit informers
who will be tasked to gather new informa-tion. Police urge all residents in the pre-cinct to forward information which canlead to prosecution of the perpetrators inFreedom Park.Contact the police on (021) 700 9000 or

The true-life story of Frankie Valli andthe Four Seasons will be brought to lifein an energising musical at Artscape
this month.Direct from it’s successful seasons in Sin-
gapore and Johannesburg, the multi-awardwinning Broadway musical Jersey Boysopens at Artscape tomorrow.
The show tells the story of Frankie Valliand the other members of the Four Seasons– Bob Gaudio, Tommy De Vito and Nick Mas-si.
The group dominated charts in the 1960sand became one of the greatest successes inpop music history, selling 175 millionrecords globally before they turned 30.
The 19 member South African cast in-cludes Emmanuel Castis, Kirsten Murphy-Rossiter, Jaco van Rensburg, Duane Alexan-der and Stephen Jubber.
Since their first curtain call on South Afri-can soil, audiences have responded withenormous enthusiasm.
“Being able to be part of this productionis a dream come true. Performing in theatrehas always been in my blood and I did manymusicals at school,” says Emmanuel Castiswho plays bass vocalist Nick Massi.
He describes Jersey Boys as not being atypical musical.
“Usually in musicals the story is drivenby the music, but with Jersey Boys the story
and emotions of where they are in theirlives, drives the music,” he says.
The well-known soapie actor, says al-though he loves acting on television, theatrehas always been apart of him.
“I’ve always been going for theatre audi-tions, but have been waiting for the perfectrole,” Castis adds.
He says the show has a great cast who havereally embraced the story of this iconicgroup.
“This rock band became each others fami-ly and having toured and lived together weare also like one big family.”
“I realised early that this was a very spe-cial story and group, I love it,” says Castis.
The show features popular hits of the bandsuch as Sherry, Big Girls Don’t Cry, Can’tTake My Eyes Off You and My Eyes AdoredYou.
Although the names of these and othersongs in the show might not be easily recog-nised by many, the tunes become more fa-miliar as the captivating tale of the four mu-sicians unfolds and the audience can beheard singing along.
Castis says they have received an incredi-ble reaction from audiences who have seenthe show and he looks forward to performingin Istanbul, Turkey, after Cape Town.
“It’s all about telling the incredible storyof normal people. We want people to walk outwith a smile on their faces and a smile ontheir heart,” he adds.

PEOPLE'S POST | GRASSY PARKTuesday, 18 June 2013 SPORT 15
Driven to achieve goalsLIAM MOSES
The dusty streets of Cape Town’s infor-mal settlements and townships havelong provided football with some its
greatest players.If you possess enough talent and determi-
nation, and manage to avoid the pitfalls ofdrugs and gangsterism, football can provideyouth with a better life.However, for most youngsters the sport is
little more than a hobby or a pastime theirparents hope will keep them away from so-cial ills.But since 2003, a Schaapkraal-based organ-
isation has been using the sport to help thecity’s poor, homeless and troubled to bettertheir lives without handing them profession-al contracts.Each year, South African Homeless Street
Soccer and registered NGO Oasis, gives agroup of people the chance to travel to andtake part in the Homeless World Cup.Clifford Marthinus, Oasis founder, says
the point of competing in the tournament isnot to simply give the players the chance totravel to a foreign country, but to openpartic-ipants’ minds to their full potential.“What we hope is that people can realise
that these opportunities are possible forthem. They might live in an informal settle-ment, but they can also better their lives. It’sup to them to take hold of their lives,” saysMarthinus.“We can’t guarantee them that their lives
are going to change. But we can guaranteethat this will make an impact on their lives.They need to use this opportunity to find outhow to make it work and count for them.”TheHomelessWorldCup is an internation-
al organisation based in Scotland and has or-ganised the tournament of the same nameevery year since 2003.This tournament is hosted in a different
country annually and can feature up to 70teams.Last year, the tournament was hosted in
Brazil and this year it will take place inPoznan, Poland, from Saturday 10 to Sunday18 August.
In order to take part in the tournamentplayersmust go through a series of trials andprove toOasis theyare seriousabout improv-ing their lives, that theywill benefit from theprogramme and that they intend to give backto their communities.Players do not have to be homeless in the
traditional sense in order to take part in thetournament, but have to be linked to anNGOin some way.Marthinus says the point of this is to en-
sure that the players continue to receive sup-port and guidance once they return from thetournament.One of the players who will be taking part
this year is centreback Ebrahim Abrahamsfrom The Kraal, an informal settlement inBo-Kaap.“I had a friendwhowas in this programme
and went with the team to Brazil last year.He was the goalkeeper and he told us aboutthe programme,” he says“I grew up struggling so I don’t want my
child to go through life the same way I did.That’s all that I want. I just want to help allthe children who are living on streets rightnow.”Before departing for the Homeless World
Cup, Abrahams and his teammates will goaway on a two week-long camping trip totrain for the tournament and also undergocounselling.Marthinus says although many people are
successful in bettering their lives, some play-ers also fail and fall back into drug abuse orcrime.Oasis also runs Oasis FC, a football club
which is affiliated to the South Peninsula Lo-cal Football Association and has over 150players.The club has teams in every age group
fromunder-9 to under-19 and does not chargeany of the players membership fees as longas they take part in the organisation’s lifeskills programmes.Oasis also aims to start a street soccer pro-
gramme involving 20 different areas aroundCapeTown.For informationabout theHome-less World Cup contact Oasis on 0 (021) 7046815.

The People’s Team brace for playoffsLIAM MOSES
Engen Santos FC will face two season-defin-ing moments this week when they take onMpumalanga Black Aces and Chippa Unitedin the Premier Soccer League (PSL) promo-tion/relegation play-offs.The People’s Team did well to fight their
way back into contention for promotion af-ter a disastrous start in the National FirstDivision (NFD).But their hard work could all be in vain
if they fail to beat Aces and Chippa in thetwohomegames onThursday 20 andSunday23 June.Head coach Ian Palmer admits both
matches will be crucial, but says a loss willnot be the death of his side’s promotion
hopes.“I don’t think this game is do or die, be-
cause we still have to play Chippa soon afterthat. If we lose it won’t be good and it willbe huge setback,” he says.“But we are thinking about that. We are
going full-out to get one over Aces and putus in thedriving seat.Aces are in thedrivingseat, because they are the only team with awin. The playing field will be levelled as wewill be at home.”Santos had an undesirable start to the
play-offs last month when their first match,away to Chippa, finished in a goalless draw.Chippa went on to lose 1-0 to Aces in the
second play-off match.The Mpumalanga side now top the stand-
ings aheadof their clash against Santos,whohave not hadmuch success againstAces thisseason.But Palmerwill hope recent form and past
results are not an indicator of what Thurs-day’s result will be.The People’s Team drew 0-0 against Aces
in their last encounter in Mpumalanga inApril, while Aces beat Santos 1-0 at AthloneStadium in the season opener last October.Palmer says the fixtures has not been kind
to his side, but he is confident his troopswillrecover before their Cape derby against
Philippi’s Chippa.“Aces are blessed because all their games
are spaced widely. After the match againstis, they have six days before they play again.The draw actually favours them,” saysPalmer.“Chippa also play us and then have to go
to Aces three days later. It’s about howquickly you recover.We have the Sports Sci-ence Institute of South Africa on our side tohelp us regenerate for the next game.”Santos’ fixture against Aces will kick-off
at Cape Town Stadium at 19:30 on Thursday20 June.Chippa United will host Aces on Wednes-
day 26 June and the final fixture of the play-offs will see Santos travel to Mpumalanga toface Aces on Saturday 29 June.
Tight encounter in derbyLIAM MOSES
Division One stragglers HamediehsRFC pulled of a surprise, against-the-odds victory over rivals Violets at
Chucker Road in Lansdowne on Saturday.Violets and Hamediehs went into the
game in second last and first on the tablerespectively, but the gulf in formandquali-ty had little effect on the result.Despite receiving five yellow cards, con-
ceding the only try and coming in a distantsecond in the possession stakes, Hame-diehs won 15-11.Head coach Zain Daniels was surprised
at the victory. “The first half performance
was solid, but we should have lost it in thesecondhalf.Wemade toomany elementaryerrors,” says Daniels.“If they hadwon, Iwouldn’t have felt bad
as we made so many mistakes – our ill-dis-cipline cost us. The first-round match wasclose as well; we should have won that oneat the death.When old rivals play each oth-er, it is always tight.”Daniels describes his team’s lack of ap-
preciation for the rule book was “patheticand poor”.“I don’t blame the referee. It was clearly
our fault. Wewere lucky as one of our guysshould have been red carded. At half-timeI asked them to be more disciplined, as ill-
discipline would cost us the game.”The numerical disadvantage and high
error count meant that Hamediehs spentmost of the game defending, but Daniels’team should be credited for putting theirbodies on the line to guard every centime-tre of the sodden Chukker Road turf.The away side were determined to play
their rugby in the opposition half and theyheaped pressure onViolets throughout thegame, with well-placed tactical kicks.Although Hamediehs attempted to run
the ball when in possession in the opposi-tion half, their success was a direct resultof staunch, smash-mouth defence thatforced the opposition to make errors.
Hamediehs flyhalf Abdul Raqieb Burdi-en kicked five penalties for his side’s 15points, while his opposite number, DenverScheepers, scored two penalties and propSaleigh Schroeder visited behind the try-line for Violets.The loss is Violets’ third in ten games
this season and will cut down their lead atthe top of the table. The Lansdowne clubwill look to get their title charge back ontrack on Saturday 22 June, when Strand’sRaithby Universals visits Chukker Road.Hamediehs, who have now won three
and lost seven matches, will hope to keeptheir late-season revival going against La-gunya away from home.
