‘n Graad 11-leerder aan die Ho\u00ebrskool Douglas se liefde vir netbal het ‘n hoogtepunt bereik toe sy onlangs gekies is om Suid-Afrika in netbalproewe in Dubai te verteenwoordig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die 16-jarige Shafieka Pieterse beskryf haarself as ‘n meisie van ‘n klein plattelandse dorpie met ‘n groot droom, en dit is om wel die BRSI Storm<\/a> netbaltoer na Dubai te kan meemaak. Sy beskou dit as ‘n geleentheid wat nie elke dag op ‘n mens se pad kom nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy speel reeds vyf jaar netbal, en is sedert 2023 in die A-span. In 2025 is sy as die beste binnebaanspeler aangewys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ek speel senter of aanvallende vleuel, maar is as senter vir die Dubai-toer wat vanaf 26 November tot 3 Desember plaasvind, gekies.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toerkoste ‘astronomies’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Angelique de Winnaar, netbal-afrigter vir die o.17B- en C-span, vertel dat Shafieka een van drie uit die distrik is wat gekies is om aan die netbalproewe deel te neem, “maar die kostes is astronomies,” vertel sy. Saam met Anandi Wiid, afrigter, is hulle met allerhande projekte doenig om dit vir Shafieka moontlik te maak om te kan gaan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die totale koste van die toer beloop nagenoeg R70 000, en die volle bedrag moet teen einde September betaal wees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEES OOK:<\/strong> <\/strong>Handbalspeler van Upington ingesluit in Suid-Afrikaanse o.20-span<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

De Winnaar vertel dat Shafieka bevriend is met van haar spelers en dat sy op hul selfoonstatusse gesien het hoe hulle bystand vir Shafieka se Dubai-toer vra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

” ‘n Meer verdienstelike speler ken ek nie, sy het soveel talent. Sy is altyd by elke oefening, en selfs op haar afdae oefen sy saam met my span,” s\u00ea De Winnaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and
