The competition is South Africa’s largest annual inter-district netball tournament, and Nokwanda Jili is hoping to secure enough donations or a sponsorship to allow her to attend the games.

She needs to raise R7 500 to pay for the transport, accommodation, and meals during the tournament. She said any amount will be appreciated.

“As the days get closer, I also feel like I’m closer to realising my dream of playing against some of the best netball players in the country. Please help get me there,” said Nokwanda.

She plays either in goal defence or as goalkeeper and is a valuable member of the team because of her tall stature.
