<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nSy talent het die eerste keer werklik na vore gekom toe hy aan \u2019n toernooi teen naburige skole deelgeneem het. \u201cDie toernooi is deur die Blue Downs-krieketklub aangebied en hulle het \u2019n o.13-span uit alle spanne gekies. Ek het die span gehaal en ons het aan \u2019n toernooi in Worcester deelgeneem. Die gogga het behoorlik gebyt en ek het n\u00e1 afloop van die toernooi permanent by die klub aangesluit,\u201d s\u00ea hy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2022 is hy aan binnenshuise krieket bekendgestel en het hy vanjaar die Westelike Provinsie (WP) se o.18-span gehaal. Hierna is hy vir die nasionale o.18-uitnodigingspan gekies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk werk steeds baie hard en ek gaan weer volgende jaar die WP-span verteenwoordig. Ek sal graag eendag vir die Proteas wil uitdraf. Dit was nog altyd \u2019n groot droom van my. Dit is vir my baie aanloklik om die sport te beoefen waarvoor ek lief is en dit op \u2019n professionele basis te doen. Dit is alles natuurlik in God se hande en sy plan vir my lewe is klaar uitgel\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk is ook \u2019n gekwalifiseerde vlak 2-skeidsregter en ek werk in my vrye tyd saam met die Westelike Provinsie-skeidsregtersvereniging. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk vind dit baie bevredigend om te leer en te ontwikkel in alle aspekte van die spel. Dit is vir my baie beter as om net die spel te speel,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy lewe bestaan ook nie net uit sport uit nie, s\u00ea Manuel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk probeer om my lewe te balanseer en ek gee dus ewe veel aandag aan my akademie as wat ek aan my sport gee. Ek glo nie dat \u2019n mens net op een aspek moet fokus nie, maar dat ons as mens uit verskeie fasette bestaan. Ek besef ook dat krieket, soos alle ander sport, \u2019n persoon net toelaat (fisies) om tot op \u2019n sekere ouderdom te speel. My plan is dus om n\u00e1 skool onderwys te studeer, want ek wil graag vir jong mense dieselfde geleenthede gee wat ek gekry het en steeds kry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOnderwys sal my ook die geleentheid gee om nie net sportsmense te kweek nie, maar ook volronde burgers wat bydra om hierdie land \u2019n beter plek te maak. Ek sal dus my afrigting uitleef as onderwyser n\u00e1 my professionele loopbaan,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Manuel se ma, Francis, s\u00ea as hy besluit om \u2019n ding aan te pak, maak hy daarvan \u2019n sukses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
