The Bottelary Athletics Club invites residents of Highbury and surrounding areas to participate in a 5km fun run or walk on Saturday 21 March at 07:00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developing junior athletes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since its establishment in 2012, the Bottelary Athletics Club has grown from the farms of Bottelary to include communities such as Wesbank and Delft. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The club is dedicated to developing junior athletes aged five to 21. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the club’s top athletes have secured study bursaries. “We currently have an athlete at UWC, Basal Maci, while Tamica Jooste and Ruchan Blaauw are both studying in the USA on a sports scholarship,” says club secretary Rochelle Soggop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tamica
Tamica Jooste, who matriculated from Sarepta Secondary School in 2021, was offered a full scholarship in 2022 to study at Wingate University in North Carolina, USA.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
