UP-Tuks under-15 football team wins FAP Gold Cup Tournament
The UP-Tuks under-15 football team was victorious on Saturday in their FAP Gold Cup Final beating the Mintlangu/Blue Stars 6- 2.
The final score at Tuks does not tell the full story. The first half was a tightly contested affair with both teams having had opportunities to score but failing to do so.
Thomas Masombuka, UP-Tuks coach, admits to having a serious talk with his players during the halftime break.
“I could see the players were quite nervous so first I got them to calm down a bit. Reassuring them that they had played better than the scoreboard suggested. Then I reminded them to stick to the basics. ”
Judging by what happened the players took Masobuka’s words to heart. The UP-Tuks players certainly played with more confidence. After scoring the second goal, there were no stopping them.
A smiling Boitimelo Magano (UP-Tuks captain) said afterwards that it is a game he will remember for a long time to come.
“It was a good learning experience on how to handle pressure. I am sure it is going to stand us to good stead for future games. I think the game’s turning point came about after halftime when we slightly changed our game plan. We made sure we stayed tight and not concede any goals.”
Lindo Mbokazi had a field day during the second half completing hat-trick of goals. He considers his first as his best.
Mbokazi is not sure as to how many goals he scored during the tournament but estimates that it could be twenty.
Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan for the UP- Tuks under-17 team. They got outplayed in their final losing 4-1 against Glenwegians/PHSOB.
The UP-Tuks under-11 team is flying out tomorrow to play the PH Alme lo Tournament in the Netherlands. 20 teams from all over Europe will be competing.
Coach, Kabelo Mokoena, is a realist not viewing results to be the be and end all.
“At their age, it is more important to look at the team’s performance than the results. It is easy to win games when you are under 11, but that is not what is essential. You want the players to improve.
“It is critical for young players to be exposed to international soccer at such a young age as it gives them an opportunity to realise how their level of play compares to the standard in other countries.
“They will be exposed to quite a few different playing styles.
Any good player got to be able to adapt to whatever happens on the field at any given time.
Parkies se leerlinge gee met ‘n oop hand…hulle gee om!
PASCH Initiative
On Wednesday, 24 October, the ZfA (Zentralstelle fürs Auslandsschulwesen) celebrated the 10th anniversary of the PASCH Initiative. This initiative allows Partner Schools in Germany and many German-teaching schools across the globe to interact with each other, exchanging ideas, letters, e-mails and sometimes even learners.
PHSG, being such a Partner School, was happy to be part of the celebration. For this event, our German girls gathered in front of the school and set free approximately 100 bio-degradable balloons in the German colours (red, black and gold).
Attached to some of these balloons, were PASCH postcards. Keep an eye out wherever you go for these very valuable postcards (example on the left). Should anybody find such a postcard, you are encouraged to fill in your details and post it, as you may be the lucky winner of some cool German goodies.

Consumer Studies Olympiad
PHSG is extremely proud of our Grade 12 learner, Shannon Campbell. Shannon was placed 3rd in the overall Consumer Studies Olympiad that took place from 9 to 10 October.
5000 learners wrote the Olympiad and the top 20 were invited to the Finals, where they wrote a second exam to determine placements. Shannon was awarded gift vouchers from Prue Leith
Academy and Pick and Pay, as well as with various gift bags and recipes books.

SPACE INVESTIGATORS
31 Teams competed on Saturday, 13 October 2018, for the opportunity to be able to compete in the
National FLL (First Lego League) competition which will be held in Johannesburg from 30 November this year.
PHSG entered 3 Robotics teams, Orbeez, Andromeda and a combined team, Hey, that’s Us!, which is comprised of girls from Girls’ High and boys from PBHS and Maragon College.
This year’s topic was space and the teams chose to resolve various problems encountered by the astronauts. The competitions are platforms for learners to develop innovative thinking for complex problems.
Orbeez took the Strategy and Innovation trophy, Andromeda took Innovative Solution and Hey,
That’s Us! took the trophy as overall winners.
Of the 31 teams that competed on the day, 8 were chosen to compete in Nationals at Sci-Bono, in Johannesburg. This includes Hey, That’s Us! and Orbeez.

Mole Day
On 23 October PHSG Celebrated Mole Day. A mole being the SI unit measuring the quantity of a substance, most often used in Chemistry to measure really, really small things like atoms or molecules. With the theme Moley Potter, staff and students alike dressed for the occasion. Breakfast was served at exactly 6:02 am and learners from PHSG, Boys’ High and a variety of other schools gathered at the Pavilion to celebrate the day.
Fun Facts:
One mole of any substance contains 6.02×1023 molecules or atoms of that substance. A mole of Basketballs would be the same size as our planet! One mole of paper would make a stack that would reach to the moon more than 80 billion times! If there were a mole of rice grains, all the land area in the entire world would be covered with rice up to a depth of about 75 meters!

Matric Valediction
By Grace Mngadi (Grade 12)
Matrics and their support structures entered PBHS school hall, feeling as though it were heaven – little candles lit the steps.
Deputy Head Girl for 2018, Kiese Mpasa, gave a moving speech about what it means to be a woman and, moreover, a woman at PHSG. It was poetic and inspiring. Tshegofatso (Tshego) Matlou cried during her Head Girl’s speech and this led to everyone else quietly weeping too, until all laughed at Tshego’s awkward blowing of her nose!
It finally hit everyone that the path at Girls’ High had reached its conclusion for them and the guest speaker, Mrs Grobbelaar, took a no-nonsense approach and pointed out that in order to succeed in life it would take GRIT.
Of course, this is not nursery school and not everyone was going to receive an award, but everyone was happy to support and applaud for the learners who did. They cheered when the best candidates were called up and moaned sympathetically when some of their peers stumbled up or down the unfamiliar staircase.
The girls were charmed by the silver Iris discs and mementoes. What a lovely little gift from the school! After the two hour service, everyone crowded around the tea tables. The highlight, for many, was the support from all the people there. The positivity was palpable.

Kleinwouwtjies se Lente Dag
Die lente breek aan in Kleinwouwtjieland… oupas en oumas, ma’s en pa’s én die res van die gesin kom vier saam fees!
Eerste op die spyskaart, is ’n wonderlike konsert, waar bekkige kleingoed sing en gesels… die gehoor skater oor die oulike sêgoed en vee skelm ’n traantjie af as die “te-oulik-vir-woorde” faktor sêgoed en vee skelm ’n traantjie af as die “te-oulik-vir-woorde” faktor té veel word.
Die kersie op die koek is die heerlike saamkuier onder die bome, terwyl die klein Wouwtjies baldadig speel en baljaar.
Toe huistoegaantyd aanbreek… en almal eintlik nog ’n bietjie wou bly…
Weet ons: “ Wat ’n féés…om ’n Wouwtjie te wees!”
Kyk hier hoe lekker hou ons konsert!!
Sing in Harmonie- koor-kompetisie
Anton van Wouw Kinderkoor sing almal se harte vuurwarm!
As n jaarlikse hoogtepunt, neem dié koor sonder uitsondering reeds sedert 2015 deel aan die Sing in Harmonie- koorkompetisie op Kyknet, wat gereken word as die grootste koorkompetisie in die land. Kore word tydens hierdie spoggeleentheid die kans gegun om hul talente op nasionale televisie ten toon te stel.
Sedert Koormeester Vaughan van Zyl, voorheen verbonde aan die Drakensbergse Seunskoor, in 2015 aangestel is as koormeester van die Anton van Wouw Kinderkoor, maak die Wouwtjies skoon skip by Sing in Harmonie!
In 2015 tree die koor as landswye wennersuit die stryd van die nasionale Sing in Harmonie-kompetisie. Die reëls van die kompetisie bepaal dat die Anton van Wouw Kinderkoor tydens 2016 nie mag deelneem nie, maar hulle het wél die voorreg om tydens die finale rondte as gaskunstenaars ‘n item tydens die regstreekse uitsending te lewer.
In 2017 word hulle aangewys as die nasionale kampioen vir kore in die informele afdeling. Beslis ‘n besondere prestasie!
Kyknet kom na afloop hiervan vorendag met die konsep van ‘n Kampioen van die Kampioene kompetisie, waar al die wen-kore van Sing in Harmonie (sedert 2014) teen mekaar kompeteer vir die eer om as beste koor in hul kategorie aangewys te word. Tydens die regstreekse, nasionale uitsending van hierdie unieke geleentheid, word die Anton van Wouw Kinderkoor beloon vir hul toewyding en harde werk deur as die beste Seniorkoor in die Informele kategorie in Suid-Afrika oor die afgelope vier jaar bekroon te word! Die kultuurgeskiedenisboeke by Laerskool Anton van Wouw is inderdaad herskryf.
In 2018 besluit Koormeester Vaughan van Zyl om ‘n nuwe uitdaging aan te pak en skryf die Anton van Wouw Kinderkoor in die formele afdeling van Sing in Harmonie in. Op 11 Mei 2018, stap hul weereens met die louere weg as die episode- wenners in hul kategorie en dring gevolglik deur na die Finaal van
Sing in Harmonie vir 2018. In die finaal presteer die koor weereens en word hulle aangewys as die wenkoor van die Noordelike provinsies.
Die kombinasie van Koormeester Vaughan van Zyl se besondere kundigheid, die toewyding van die koor se organiseerders, Mee Liezel Botha en Johani Labuschagne en elke koorlid se deursettingsvermoë en getroue, harde werk, verseker dat dié baie spesiale erflating in die koorkultuur van Laerskool Anton van Wouw ‘n blywende indruk laat.
Besoek aan Swede
Laerskool Anton van Wouw Kinderkoor het vanjaar die voorreg gehad om Swede te besoek. Die koor is uitgenooi as gaskunstenaars van die “Star of Life” konsert wat jaarliks in Swede aangebied word.
Die kinders het vir twee dae besoek afgelê in die skole, waar hulle deelgeneem het aan die akademiese aktiwiteite. Ons leerders het met groot gemak ingeskakel en spontaan deelgeneem in die klasse, en sodoende bewys dat Suid-Afrikaners met gemak op internasionale vlak kan funksioneer.
Ons skool is hartlik ontvang en die koor het tydens die een opvoering ook ‘n staande ovasie ontvang vir die puik koorsang.

Gauteng Action 24 Model Legislature
By Mr Smit
On 19 October, the South African Institute of International Affairs hosted the first ever Gauteng Action 24 Model Legislature debate, modelled to realistically resemble Provincial Parliament. This is a brand new and entirely unique concept, whereby the youth of Gauteng is given an opportunity to have their voices heard as they play a vital role in compiling a working document on governmental legislature. Not only is this a fantastic learning opportunity, but the document compiled by the cooperating delegations is actually sent to the Gauteng Government.
The theme for the day was ‘Not Too Young to Lead – Merging Global Issues with Localised Issues Faced by the Youth of South Africa’. Kgaugelo Mkumbeni, Bonolo Moikanyane and Lehlogonolo Letshela were our well-spoken participants for the day, and the event was also chaired by PHSG Old Girl Joyce Bongongo.
Typically in Model UN debates we are assigned a country to represent; that was not the case this time around. Instead our young ladies represented Pretoria High School for Girls and could freely raise their own concerns, offer their own input and present their own suggestions.
It was an event unlike any other we have ever attended. With undergraduate students from UP, UJ and Wits taking part, we were ever so slightly out of our comfort zone.
Things were not made better when our girls were split up into three separate commissions (Environmental Affairs, Human Settlements and Tourism) and could no longer rely on each other’s support.
Though undeniably nervous and overwhelmed, they pushed through, said what they came to say and learned as much as they could from this awesome event. As the day came to a close, our ladies themselves were perhaps the most surprised of anyone in the room when, against all odds, they were awarded the prize for First Best Delegation of the day.

Skoolgereedheid
Skoolgereedheid is ‘n proses wat alreeds met geboorte begin.
Hierdie proses het ten doel om ’n kleuter in staat te stel om al die uitdagings, hetsy sosiaal, emosioneel, fisies, kognitief en ook perseptueel, baas te raak.
So ‘n kleuter se ontwikkeling het ‘n stadium bereik waar die kleuter sal kan baatvind by formele leer.
Die Kleuterskool se rol is om te verseker dat voorvaardighede vir leer ontwikkel. Dit is soos die boustene wat nodig is vir formele leer.
Dit is belangrik dat hierdie voorvaardighede op kleutervlak, asook op ‘n spelende wyse aangebied word.
Vandag se kleuters word egter in ‘n kompeterende, snelgroeiende wêreld groot. Die uitdagings aan ouers en onderwysers is groot.
Daarom is dit by Parkieland so belangrik om die proses vir al ons kleuters makliker te maak. Ons ouers gesels graag met die Juffrouens hier by die kleuterskool – ons ken die uitdagings en help graag!
Net so is speeltyd ook belangrik vir kleuters se ontwikkeling. Daardeur word al die ontwikkelingsareas gestimuleer vir skoolgereedheid.
Fantasiespel is tog so lekker vir maatjies Phiané Wentzel, Mia Labuschagne en Abigail Kraamwinkel.

Parkieland kleuterskool sien DUBBEL
Parkieland Kleuterskool het die jaar op ‘n hoë noot begin vir die rede dat daar so baie tweelinge, asook ‘n drieling is wat by ons skool ingeskryf was vir die jaar 2018.
Die kleuterskool het al dikwels in die verlede ‘n hele klomp tweelinge in die skool gehuisves, maar hierdie jaar was ‘n rekord. Parkieland spog met ses oulike tweelinge, asook ‘n pragtige drieling! Die Juffrouens moes soms mooi kyk om die kinders van mekaar te onderskei.
Dit was omtrent ‘n groot taak om hulle almal vir ‘n foto stil te laat staan. Die jongste tweeling was maar twee jaar oud en die ander se ouderdomme wissel tussen drie en vyf jaar oud.
Dit was ‘n jaar vol dubbele pret en trippel plesier hier by Parkieland! Ons is mos bekend vir ons prettige manier van dinge doen!
Hier is die vrolike klompie op die speelterrein van die skool.
Die kleingoed is Adriaan en Ané Truscott, Joshua en Reuben Dafel, Brendon en Abigail Kraamwinkel, Lily en Connor Gildenhuys, Gabrielle en Mika Heyns, Riekard en Luan van Rooyen en Rudolf, Carl-James en Izé van Rooyen.
Drie van die tweelinge, asook ons drieling, beweeg volgende jaar oor na Laerskool Menlopark se Gr. 0 Sentrum waar hulle gaan wys hoe Parkieland hulle voorberei het vir nóg meer leer en groei.

Die hoogtepunt van hierdie jaar was voorwaar ons nuwe Lammetjieklas. Ons kyk met groot trots en vreugde na al die mylpale wat ons nuwe kleuters in die jaar bereik het. Daarom is ons ook baie opgewonde oor die groot suksesse wat ons nuwe 2-3 jarige maatjies in die Lammetjie- en Kalfieklas in 2019 gaan bereik.

NIGHT OF THE PROMS
By Jasmine Beeforth (Grade 8)
On 10 October, the day of the school’s birthday, the Night of the Proms was held in the Hall, to celebrate t PHSG’ss birthday and to welcome Mrs Erasmus as the new Principal.
Rousing music was played by the orchestra and ensembles and there was further colour added by the senior and junior dance groups as well as the choirs. A poem was dedicated to Mrs Erasmus to conclude the items.
The night then ended with many thank-yous and gifts given to all those involved in the organisation of the events, as well as many tearful farewells to the Matrics of 2018.
Radikale- en Oppie- Tong-Af Redenaars sê dit ... in Afrikaans!
30 Redenaars van Laerskool Anton van Wouw het 13 Oktober deelgeneem aan die Radikale Redenaars Nasionale Finaal te Hoërskool Garsfontein. Die Radikale Redenaarsfees streef daarna om vir almal die geleentheid te bied om voor ’n gehoor op te tree deur ’n toespraak te lewer. Tydens dié kompetisie, het daar 1200 individuele leerders en 169 spanne deelgeneem. Die Wouwtjies behaal 15 1ste plekke, drie 2de plekke en vier 3de plekke. Milandri Schutte, graad 7, is aangewys as die nasionale wenner in agt afdelings, dit is voorwaar ’n puik prestasie!
Tydens die Oppie-Tong-Af Redenaars se Nasionale Finaal, het die woorde behoorlik van die leerders se tonge afgerol. Die Wouwtjies behaal ses 1ste plekke, een 2de plek en ’n 4de plek. Hartlik geluk aan ons redenaars wat met harde werk, toewyding en deursettingsvermoë uitstekend presteer het tydens die kompetisie.

Laerskool Anton Van Wouw se Juniorkoor blink weer uit
Die Wouwtjie Juniorkoor het weereens bewys dat hulle ‘n formidabele koor is om mee rekening te hou. Hulle is vir die tweede agtereenvolgende jaar as wenners van die ATKV se Applous-koorkompetisie aangewys Altesaam agttien skole in Gauteng het aan die kompetisie deelgeneem.
Die prestasie is soveel te meer prysenswaardig, as in aanmerking geneem word dat meer as ‘n kwart van die koor bestaan uit nuwe lede, (die meeste van hulle graad eentjies), wat maar sedert die begin van die jaar in ‘n koor sing. Kommentaar van die beoordelaars was onder andere dat dit by tye klink asof dit ‘n seniorkoor is wat sing, dat die ritme van Asblik Affêre aansteeklik is, en dat die begeleiding deurgaans pragtig en gepas is. Die lof vir hierdie prestasie kom hoofsaaklik die uiters bekwame dirigent, dr. Riekie van Aswegen, toe. Sy het “Asblik Affêre” gekomponeer en ook die Afrika-liedere verwerk. Ons begeleier, me. Betsie Schaap, is ook uit die boonste rakke.
Orkes
Laerskool Anton van Wouw het in Januarie 2018 met sy eie orkes begin, van ongeveer 25 leerlinge Gr.1-7 leerders, wat verskeie instrumente bespeel. Die instrumente wissel van viole, trompette, kitare, elektriese kitare tot xilofone en ’n glockenspiel. Hul het aan die Arts@sussex Music festival deelgeneem en goud verwerf. Dit is ‘n uitstekende prestasie, aangesien die orkes slegs 6 maande aan die gang is. Baie geluk aan elke Wouwtjie wat so hard oefen!
Skaak
Michal Oosthuizen (Gr. 7-leerder van Laerskool Anton van Wouw) verteenwoordig Suid-Afrika tans by die Wêreld Jeug SkaakKampioenskappe in Halkidiki, Griekeland in die “Onder 14-Ope Kategorie”. Die kategorie bestaan uit 137 spelers van regoor die wêreld, wat vir elf uitdagende rondtes hul beste skuiwe gaan maak. Lande, van Albanië tot Kazakstan, Peru tot Slovakye, en vele meer neem deel aan die kampioenskappe. Dit is Michal se vyfde wêreldkampioenskap – hy het ook al in lande soos Brasilië, Roemenië, Indië en Georgia gespeel.
Michal het ook onlangs in Kisumu, Kenia aan die “Afrika Jeug Skaakkampioenskappe” deelgeneem, waar hy ‘n brons medalje en “Candidate Master” skaaktitel verower het in die o.14 Ope Kategorie.
Michal glo sy geheime wapen is die Suid-Afrikaanse biltong waaraan hy peusel terwyl hy speel.

Menlo maak netbal pret vir almal wat tekkies het!!
Menlo maak netball pret vir almal wat tekkies het!
Een van die uitsonderlik Menlo-mal momente op Menlo se netbalbane is die Tekkielympics wat op dei netbalbane aangebied word. Almal wat tekkies het en ‘n bal kan vang daag op vir heerlike netbal. Die spanne bestaan almal uit seuns en meisies en elke span kies ‘n tema, interessante spandrag en ‘n kreet! Meeste van die manne is verbaas oor hoe moeg ‘n netbalwedstryd ‘n man kan maak en is maar te dankbaar wanneer die eindfluitjies blaas. Gelukkig het rugby-oefeninge handig te pas gekom en lynstaan-vaardighede is toegepas sodat die balle meters hoog onderskep kon word, wat natuurlik die netbalspelers onkant gevang het. By Menlo is netbal nie net groot nie, dit is groot pret!

Sekgodiso wants to improve her best 800m time at the Youth Olympics
Every time Prudence Sekgodiso (TuksSport High School) steps onto the track to race, she got only one goal, and that is to win.
And on most occasions, she does precisely that. Her positive approach led to her dominating the local under-18 races over 800 metres. Sekgodiso is not sure, but she thinks she might have only been beaten once on the track. She has been equally ruthless in cross country races.
That is why Grade 10-learner has been selected to represent South Africa at the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires, Argentina (6-10 October).
A definite highlight for her was winning the 800 metres at the South African Junior and Youth Championships. Her breakthrough race was in March when she competed at the Liquid Telecom Grand Prix Meeting in Roodepoort. Racing against the likes of Caster Semenya she finished fifth in 2:06.96.
Semenya (1:54.25) and Gina Lofstrand are the only two local 800m-athletes to have run faster times this season.
The TuksSport High School athlete also won a bronze medal during the African Youth Games in Algiers but is honest in her assessment of her race.
“It was not a good race. My time was certainly nothing to get excited about. Running 2 minutes 10 seconds is bad,” said Sekgodiso promising to be faster at the Games.
“I think I am capable of at least running 2 minutes 04 seconds.”
If she does, it could mean that she could end up being one of the top eight 800m athletes at the Games. So far this season only eight youth athletes in the world have managed to dip under 2 minutes 05 seconds.
The twins, Thobile and Thulisile Amon, who are her regular training partners confidently predict that she will run the time she is aiming for.
“We might be in matric, but Prudence is a role model to us. It is inspiring to train with her and to see her race,” said Thobile Amon.
Being twins, they can’t help but complete each other sentences or often interrupting the other when “singing” Sekgodiso’s praises.
“Nothing seems to faze Prudence. What happens happened she is never one to wonder what could have been. When she has a bad race, she immediately puts it behind her. All that matters is the next time she has to race better,” said Thulisile Amon.
Thobile Amon hastily adds that Sekgodiso does not allow herself to be intimidated.
“We have been privy to hear athletes making bold predictions before a race as to the times they intend to run. Prudence will just listen, saying nothing. It is like let’s go race and see if you can do what you are saying you are going to do. And then she outruns them.”
TuksSport High School judoka bags gold in Russia
If there is one thing, Donné Breytenbach (TuksSport High School) truly hates it is to lose a judo fight. For her, it is just not on.
Taking that into account it should be no surprise that she won a gold medal over the weekend Tyumen International Cadet Competition in Russia. An elated Nikola Filipov (Tuks head coach) describes it as the best result of her fighting career.
“To be able to win in Russia is a big deal as judo is a major sport in Eastern Europe,” explained Filipov. According to him, 700 judokas from 14 countries competed.
Breytenbach was pushed out of her comfort zone. She usually fights in the under-52kg category, but over the weekend she decided to move up a weight category competing in the under-57kg category.
“I will be honest it was tough having to fight bigger and stronger rivals. It meant that I had to change my fighting style. I had to be more clever. Thinking before doing. Having Nikola next to the mats helped as he is a brilliant strategist. He also has a way to ensure that I remain calm when fighting,” explained the TuksSport High School learner.
During December Breytenbach will be representing South Africa in the Region Five Tournament. She will be competing in the junior category which is under-20. She is confident of getting a good result.
Earlier this year during the African Junior and Cadet Championships in Burundi she won bronze medals in the cadet (under-17) as well as the junior (under-20) categories. In the build-up to the championships, she also competed at a Budapest Cup Tournament where she took the bronze medal.
Thomas Breytenbach, her twin brother, was fifth over the weekend. He is reasonably satisfied with his performance as his goal was to gain as much experience as he can.
“At the moment I am the forever student of judo. That is why it is important I make the most of every opportunity I get to compete internationally. I am sure everything I am learning will stand me to good stead in accomplishing the only real goal I have, and that is to compete at the Olympic Games. Hopefully, it can be at 2024.”
Filipov rates Thomas Breytenbach as one of the real deals of South African judo. The reason for doing is Breytenbach’s absolute dedication.
“He will train seven days a week if need to and never complain doing so.”
Apparently, it not through choice that the Breytenbach twins got to compete in Russia. Every judoka who fought over the weekend was personally invited. Earlier this year a Russian coach was so impressed by their dedication during a training camp in Baja that led to them getting the opportunity to compete in Tyumen.
Coetzee and Mundell can’t wait to dive in at the Youth Games
The UP-Tuks swimmer, Duné Coetzee, admits there will be butterflies fluttering in her tummy when she dives into the pool for her first race during the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires.
It is not a case of her being nervous doubting her abilities, but more about anticipation. Sort of an adrenaline rush waiting to happen. It has been five months since the 16-year old has competed at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games and a lot has changed. She feels stronger and faster. Now she got to prove that it is not only her imagination.
Coetzee said the most important thing she learned from her participation at the Games is that she belongs in the international arena.
“I know now that at a major international gala you got to swim at your best every time. You won’t qualify for a final by saving yourself in the heats. It is flat out from the start. Cameron van der Burgh told me that you always got a chance to win no matter who is swimming next to you.
“The competition during the Games was amazing. I got to improve my best time in the 200m-butterfly to 2:12.38 and swam some of my fastest times in the other events I competed. To compete in the 4x200m-relay in which the Aussies broke the Commonwealth-record was a special experience. All that excitement led to me swimming 2:03.32 which is also best for me.”
Since the Games Coetzee has started doing some gym work. According to her nothing major the focus being mostly to improve her explosive strength.
“When swimming, I can feel that I am faster over 50 metres and that I am able to sustain that speed for longer periods. So, yes, I am excited to compete at the Youth Games because it is one thing to train and something else to compete.”
Coetzee will be competing in all three the butterfly-events (50m, 100m and 200m) as well as the 200m-freestyle and the 400m-freestyle. Her primary goal will be to try and qualify for as many finals as possible.
Christin Mundell (TuksSport High School) will also be competing at the Youth Games.
Earlier this year during the South African National Junior Age Group Championships in Durban Mundell won six gold medals (50m-breaststroke, 100m-breaststroke, 200m-breaststroke, 200m-freestyle, 400m-freestyle and 200m individual medley).
At the Games, she will compete in all three breaststroke events as well as the 200m individual medley.
According to Rocco Meiring (coach), he will be happy if she gets to swim the same times she swam during the national championships. If she does Mundell will have a realistic chance to qualify for the semi-finals or even a final.
James Freeman (TuksSport High School) will be representing Botswana at the Games.
