Central Athletics launched their new clubhouse at Newlands Cricket Stadium on Tuesday 4 September.
Central Athletics management are proud to announce the formation of a brand new partnership with the Western Province Cricket Association (WPCA) and the Cape Cobras Cricket Franchise. Together they are reaffirming the iconic Newlands Cricket Stadium as the home of Central Athletics.
Following a recent meeting between the members of the Central executive committee and Nabeal Dien, the CEO of the Cape Cobras Cricket Franchise, Beresford Williams the president of the WPCA and Clifford Dodgen the manager of the stadium, it was decided that Central Athletics and the WPCA, together with the management of the Newlands Cricket Stadium, will forge a new partnership.
Faldie Raciet, chairperson of Central Athletics, has confirmed the launch and spring training programme.
“This is indeed a momentous occasion,” says Raciet.
“Starting on Tuesday 4 September we would like to invite everyone to come join us at training on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 18:30. Runners of all abilities are most welcome.
“We will also be launching a 10-week beginner’s programme for anyone who is interested, at no charge,” he adds.
With the club celebrating its fifth year in existence, Dien says they have decided to show their commitment. He says they will be strengthening the partnership between Central Athletics Club and Newlands Cricket Stadium.
“Running is the basis of all sports. We are proud to have been associated with Central Athletics for the past five years. During this period the club has grown from strength to strength.
“We will therefore be looking to explore exciting new avenues where Newlands Cricket Stadium is not only seen as the home of cricket in the Western Cape, but it will also provide the community and families with activities that promote a healthy lifestyle.”
Williams, the president of the WPCA, says they are proud to be associated with Central Athletics.
“Central Athletics is a community club that offers a service to youngsters and adults of all abilities by providing them with an opportunity to improve their fitness levels in a relaxed and friendly environment.
“The WPCA recognises its social responsibility to uplift communities by promoting positive activities, which is part of the ethos that Central Athletics stands for.
“The emphasis has always been on the enjoyment of the sport by building lasting friendships through the social interaction of individuals and families alike. It is for this reason that we as the WPCA decided to strengthen our partnership with Central Athletics by providing a facility and a home for all those in the community who strive to improve their quality of life,” explains Williams.
