Partnerships like these contribute directly to sports development and help us continue building athletics nationwide,” Kotze said.Bank Windhoek noted that its investment in athletics forms part of a broader strategy aimed at community upliftment and youth empowerment. The bank emphasised that supporting well-structured sporting competitions helps strengthen the overall sports ecosystem, benefiting athletes, coaches, and administrators alike.Moody added that through targeted sponsorships and partnerships, Bank Windhoek continues to invest in programmes that enable young people to thrive, promote healthy lifestyles, and foster national pride through sport.Members of the public, stakeholders, and the media have been encouraged to attend the championship and follow updates from Athletics Namibia throughout the event.Athletics Namibia, the national governing body for the sport, is responsible for the administration and development of athletics in the country. The federation continues to focus on growing participation, developing athletes and technical officials, and creating competitive opportunities that support excellence in the sport.
