VANDERBIJLPARK. – North-West University (NWU) Marketing and Communication Directorate on the Vaal proudly made Lerato Lady Ngakane’s dreams come true.
The Marketing and Communication team came to the rescue of a talented young netballer – Lerato Lady Ngakane who was chosen to represent the Gauteng u/16 netball team recently.
The NWU team stepped in when Sedibeng Ster Sport reported on Ngakane’s plea for possible funders or sponsors to enable her to attend the Gauteng School Netball Rhino Week, which took place in Vereeniging recently.
According to Matome Kganakga, a member of the NWU team, the department sponsored Lerato with her kit and clothing for the tournament. “As a campus we are committed towards the development of young sporting talent, and we are proud to be associated with various sporting events within the region.”
“From Lerato’s performance on the netball court it is evident that she is a talented and highly motivated player and as such we are proud to aid her in reaching even further heights on the sports field,” says Kganakga.
Ngakane is currently a Grade-10 learner at Suiderlig High School in Vanderbijlpark.
