N\u00e1 haar eerste kompetisiedeel\u00adname as \u2019n senuweeagtige, maar ywerige trompoppie wat trots was om haar laerskool te verteenwoordig, het die destydse graadtweetjie geweet die gogga het gebyt. Sy kon nie wag om by die huis verder aan haar vaardighede te slyp nie. Sy herroep baie aande wat sy met haar selfgemaakte vlag \u2013 uit ou lap en \u2019n stok \u2013 in die bed aan die slaap geraak het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Min het Genevieve Maans geweet sy sou een van haar groot trompoppie-drome danksy die brandende passie as ho\u00ebrskoolleerder verwesenlik. Di\u00e9 18-jarige leerder aan Strand Sekond\u00eare Skool spog nie net met haar trompoppie-kleure nie, maar met die geleentheid om eersdaags die land se vlag by die nasionale en w\u00eareldkampioenskappe te laat wapper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het nog altyd gedroom om eendag as verteenwoordiger van my land in my groen Protea-baadjie op die veld uit te marsjeer,\u201d deel die tiener met opgewondenheid oor die geleentheid wat uiteindelik \u2019n werklikheid is.Maar, Genevieve benodig \u2019n helpende hand om die koste van die eenmalige geleentheid te dek en \u2019n hartlike beroep word op Helderbergers gedoen om hul harte en beursies vir \u2019n goeie doel oop te maak. Die talentvolle trompoppie is hardwerkend, passievol en doelgerig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy wy altyd 110% aan die sport en haar passie daarvoor is onmiskenbaar. Dis hoekom die Grabouw Senior Majorettes-klublid in 2022 haar Boland-kleure in die sport verwerf het en met aanbeveling van haar afrigter, Robin Benjamin, wat haar potensiaal raakgesien het, vir die Suid-Afrikaanse Majorette en Cheerleading Association (Samca) se proewe ingeskryf het. Genevieve het met sukses in die proewe meegeding en haar Samca-kleure in Februarie vanjaar ontvang. Sy is in Maart vir die Proteaspan gekies, wat in September aan die nasionale en w\u00eareldkampioenskappe sal deelneem. Hoewel Genevieve uitsien na die amptelike kleure-seremonie wat later vanjaar plaasvind, werk sy daaraan om haar vaardighede in die aanloop tot die kampioenskappe te verskerp. Intussen reik haar ouers uit na enigiemand vir finansi\u00eble ondersteuning om hul geliefde dogter se droom te bewaarheid. \u201cAs ouers het ons besef ons sal nie op ons eie die finansi\u00eble mas kan opkom nie, en daarom vra ons hulp van vriende, familie en die publiek in \u2019n poging om Genevieve se drome te bewaarheid,\u201d verduidelik haar ma, Rachel Maans, wat as \u2019n versorger by die Strandse tehuis Huis Soeterus werk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
