Dawid de Greeff, administrative officer of Africa Genesis Archery Northern Cape (AGA-NC) says it was the first official AGA-SA 3D competition presented by the Northern Cape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the event on 15 April, archers competed in inter-school, inter-club, and inter-provincial bull\u2019s-eye and 3D competitions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schalk van der Merwe, in the adult archery group (AAG) achieved three perfect 50s in the bull\u2019s-eye and 3D competition altogether, and scored a whopping 290\/300 in the bull\u2019s eye competition \u2013 the highest score AGA-NC has seen since its start last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A total of 15 Northern Cape archers improved their personal best scores in the bull\u2019s-eye competition, and another three achieved perfect 50s on the 10 m distance. They are Annemarie de Greeff, Mario Oosthuizen, and Terence van Eck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event also saw two students of the Sol Plaatje University (SPU) participate for the first time, and performed exceptionally well.

NoordkaapBulletin is a regional newspaper based in Kimberley, the capital of the Northern Cape of South Africa. 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 connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
