1 STATUS REPORT MARCH/APRIL is on the roll and many programs, events and AGM s are at the order of the day. EDEN was the recipient of over the R2m for sport development for the 2018/19 year of which the sport community of the Eden district is proud of. The organising of the BTG that will be hosted in George this year, the 2018 Farm Workers Sport Day schedule for 12 May in Worcester and the EDENSC Sport Awards, are main projects on the Eden sport calendar. The EXCO is also steadily implementing the decisions taken at their strategic planning workshop early in January The EDENSC however remain true to its vision to serve their members in the best possible way irrespective of the financial outcome of the funding grants received. AMINISTRATION The R grant from DCAS that is now ring fenched for administration, S & T and Projects is not sufficient to service the 51 federations and 7 municipal sport councils and subsequent other methods of funding need to be investigated. This will, like last year, worked in detrimentally on the service delivery especially in the field of capacity building and commission activities. In order to streamline the operations of the EDENSC, bi-lateral meetings were held with all the commissions and the restructuring of the commissions are now a priority as the success of the EDENSC relies heavily on the work done by the commissions. MEMBERSHIP The affiliation of EDENSC is at present 51 DSF S and 7 LSC s affiliations. The target is to at least affiliate 3 more federations in At present EDENSC is proud to report that 42 of the 51 federations are now functioning under the EDEN name!

7 GOOD STORIES JUDO A small farm school between Oudtshoorn and George, near Herold, really perform beyond their means but not beyond their talent! With the help of sponsorship from the National Lottery Commission, 24 Judoka from Eden took part in a Cape Town Open tournament on Saturday 14 April. The team was accompanied by coach Lilian Steyn and managers and assistant coach, Jaqueline Boesak and Francois Plaatjies. Competition was tough as judoka are all in the process of qualifying for the South African Open during the July holiday. As usual, the judoka from Jisei Judo Club, Mossel Bay Judo Club, Herold Judo Club and Eden Development Judo Club did not disappoint their supporters. The results are as follows: Gold medals to: Rosie Leen, Antonio Hudzenberg, Enslin Hartzenberg, Bradwon Boesak, Duwayne Saptouw, Otto van Eeden. Silver medals to: Mishayla Plaatjies, Aluncedo Magontolo, Jeandre Buys, Vian Gerber (as well as a bronze medal), Raymondo Matroos, Raniell Matiwane, Breyton Botha and Deacon Witbooi. Bronze medals to: Nakita Boesak, Muneebah Ruiters, Raydon Ruiters, Delcon Hendriks, 2 bronze medals to Ricardi Matthee, Steven Steyn and Jadrian Matroos. TUG-O-WAR During the EDEN Tug-o-War Championship held at the Oudtshoorn School of Skills, the team from Calitzdorp High School performed so good that they also qualified to represent Eden at the national championship in Kimberley. They however had to withdraw immediately as a result of the cost and having no funds. The parents of the victorious Oakdale Agricultural School from Riversdale immediately launch a campaign there and then to raises funding for Calitzdorp HS. Before the end of the competition enough money was raised to make it possible for Calitzdorp to go to the nationals in Kimberley! What a gesture! Thanks to Oakdale and parents your generosity is highly appreciated! 7
