Dressing rooms at Middelburg’s Kees Taljaard Stadium have been flooded for the second time in a week. The stadium has been in a state of deterioration for far too long. The municipality has acknowledged that major renovations are needed, but there is no money available for the work. As a result, little maintenance is being done beyond cutting the grass.#Middelburg#Mpumalanga
