Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - The Klerksdorp School of Gymnastics (KSG) staged their showcase last week and people are already looking forward to the next one - even though they have to wait until 2026!

This production is only held every two years, but it is worth the wait. 

Die plaaslike jukskeiklub het ‘n byeenkoms op Saterdag 30 November aangebied met meer as 32 spelers. Nuwe spanne is gekies. Oud en jonk het opgedaag, sommige die eerste keer. Die klub groei baie vining, veral onder die jongklomp. Nuwe en ou spelers kan Marelize Bothma by 082 098 4415 skakel indien hulle wil deelneem.

Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - One of the city’s best attributes needs the community’s support to continue to offer quality training in a safe environment while further establishing the club as a vital resource in SA gymnastics.

The future of Klerksdorp School of Gymnastics is bleak. According to Artyom Vizer, representing the Klerksdorp School of Gymnastics, the school is not in danger of closing, but costs to keep it open have skyrocketed.

“Funds from the government and the NWU High Performance Institute have dried up. We need essential upgrades, including a new artistic gymnastics floor worth R1,5 million and a rhythmic gymnastics carpet worth R400 000,” he said. 

Johan Smit reached the milestone of 250 Parkruns over the weekend. He reached this milestone of 1 250 km at the Matlosana Bird Parkrun on Saturday November 23.
