Cricket skills honed

Elizabeth Joseph The Theo's SuperSpar Cricket Festival took place in Otjiwarongo from 27 to 28 September and was powered by NAMSPIRE Sports. Over the course of two days, several teams took on the sun and each other at the annual cricket festival. The action took place on four pitches.The aim, according to Edugate sports director Juryta Potgieter, was not to keep score or have a winning team, but rather to train and help the young players hone their talent. “We do keep score, but there were no winning teams. The idea for this tournament was to allow both the parents and children to have fun, while attending many coaching lessons,” she said. Theo Borslap of Theo’s SuperSpar said the cricket festival was about creating a culture of serving, which does not happen often enough and he wants to see that dynamic change.NAMSPIRE Sports managing director Dickson Vambe said more schools were involved this year than last year. “The game of cricket has definitely spread to more towns in Namibia and this will aid us in decentralising cricket and moving it into more corners of Namibia. It is our goal to turn this event into an international event,” he said.Action cricketAfter a strenuous day of cricket, the players headed to Etemba Plaza, where they played action cricket in the parking lot. The teams that participated were the Dragons, Shields, Titans and Spartans. While parents had their meals at The Dros, they could watch their children play action cricket. All in all, great cricket was played and many skills were sharpened.
