Local netball players enjoyed the moment while it lasted on Sunday (June 27), as they had their games a few hours before President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that the country was moving to an Adjusted Level 4 Lockdown. The tournament was organised by the ANC Youth League, Kalushi Mahlangu Branch, and had teams from Steadville, Acaciavale and Mkhamba competing for a R2000 Riga voucher, which was up for grabs.

The co-ordinators, Mr Bhumba Nkosi and Ms Phlisiwe Dladla, were thrilled about the success of the tournament. They stressed that their main aim is to keep the youth off the streets and encourage a healthy lifestyle.
