We are very grateful to you guys. It has been another season of so near but so far for the Hollywood bets Dolphins as we had a chance of winning both the Sunfoil Series and the Momentum Cup going into the backend of both the competitions. It is unfortunate that we did not cross the line in both occasion, winning is a habit and I have seen the right signs that we are going in the right direction. It will be very wrong of me not to thank our wonderful sponsors Hollywood Bets for all the support and energy they have brought to our team and the staff at the Sahara Stadium Kingsmead. To our staff that have worked tirelessly throughout the year and the season at large a very big thank you to you too. Please enjoy the off season and time with your families. Catch you in the new season!

Leadership is a skill that can be acquired and improved upon. As well as looking to improve technique and fitness, strive to make the most out of your leadership potential. The strength of a good coach is as follows: • Good technical/tactical knowledge • Good people skills • Good planning and execution of plan • Bonding team to a united goal • Improvement of players individually and as a team • Good listening skills • The art of asking the correct questions of his/her players Good coaching is not how many beacons one puts out and fielding drills. It encompasses all of the above and more. UMPIRING AS A CAREER? Have you ever considered umpiring as a choice of career? Do you have what it takes to do the job? We at the KZN Umpires Association are looking for aspiring umpires. We have the knowledge and training skills to be able to equip you to become a top class umpire. The KZNCUA have embarked on an intensive recruitment drive to not only introduce new umpires but also to upskill those who are already involved in the game in whatever capacity. During the off season the KZNCUA will be conducting various entry level and advanced courses. These will be conducted in three areas. Durban, Empangeni and Pietermaritzburg. We welcome anybody to join our Association. We have created a warm and friendly environment for our members and would love to hear from any interested persons.

In a school match in Amanzimtoti Kingsway High School managed to score a mammoth total of 435 for 5 in their allotted 50 overs with Blu Belluigi scoring a record 248 not out (28x4) (11x6) against Reddam Umhlanga College during the first term fixtures. The Local schools league structure is strong and the administrators are constantly striving to find strategies to expand the base of schools playing in these leagues. We currently have 124 High Schools and 226 Primary Schools playing Cricket. KwaZulu Natal and KwaZulu Natal Inland now report to the same union which is the KZNCU led by the acting CEO Rajesh Behari but during schools and Provincial competition they stand alone, inter school’s rivalry between the regions cricketing schools remains strong. Our traditional schools have adopted the declaration game for all 1st teams. Glenwood Old Boy Okuhle Cele and Northwood Old Boy Senuran Muthusamy were invited to be part of the CSA National Academy which starts from 22nd May till the end of July 2017, we wish them both the best of luck as they fly the flag of KZNCU. We currently have 4 Girls schools playing in a league format and we have 2 Primary Girls U13 festivals. The winter Programme caters for squads to be selected to represent KwaZulu Natal in the various National Weeks. Cricketers are put through a Programme including fitness, coaching and match situation awareness.

We currently have 56 coaches, 144 Primary Schools and 73 High School in the Programme as well as 71 club teams that play in our Local league structures. Our Township Development Programme is getting stronger and stronger and is also preparing for the 10th Annual Sunfoil Township Tournament hosted at Hilton College from the 30th of June till the 5th July 2017. 25 YEARS NNIVERSAR A Y VOL. 1 EDITION TWO 2016/2017 SEASON Level 1 and 2 coaching courses for coaches were conducted during the season at Sahara Stadium Kingsmead. During our last financial year, KZN Cricket Union has produced over 40 level 1 and 25 level 2 coaches. The KZN Cricket Scorers’ Association currently has 25 members, all of whom have had either international or provincial scoring experience. The KZNCSA is committed to the transformation and development of scorers in this province and the Association’s transformation figures remained above 50% for the 2016/17 season. The KZNCSA will be running Level I training courses at Sahara Stadium Kingsmead on Saturday 8th April 2017 in the morning and the Level 2 course will be on the same day in the afternoon. The courses are available to interested scorers from KZN Inland and Coastal schools and clubs. The dates of these courses will be circulated to the media and clubs as soon as they have been confirmed. Trainee scorers are also offered hands-on training and mentoring at every opportunity throughout the season. A detailed survey of linear scoring in local schools was undertaken by the Trainers during the 2015/16 season. The KZN Dolphins Academy began in February with an intake of 18 Boys. The team has already begun their rigorous training and preparation for the Franchise Academy Week in Potchefstroom. We currently have a total of 39 umpires that umpire in our local Premier League to the Women’s League. Umpires also appointed for other matches as requested by the KZNCU - Franchise, Provincial, Academy & Schools: Friendlies, Warm up, other fixtured matches outside of the KZNCU League. Blu Belluigi collecting kit sponsored by Kookaburra 25 YEARS NNIVERSAR A Y VOL. 1 EDITION TWO 2016/2017 SEASON TOWNSHIP DEVELOPMENT Overview Initiated in 2007, the KZNCU Township and Rural Development Programme was borne out of the need to introduce cricket to townships and rural areas in Kwazulu-Natal where it was non-existent, and virtually unheard of. The programme currently works with close to 8000 children in 36 townships and rural areas across the province, as far afield as KwaMashu, Gamalakhe and Mtubatuba, affording them both an opportunity to play cricket, as well as creating platforms whereby they can change their set of circumstances (for example, through facilitating bursaries at top schools for talented cricketers). Our History In 1987, Linda Zondi, an 11-year-old boy growing up in KwaMashu, was introduced to cricket through what was then known as Bakers mini-cricket. He later made it in to the KZN under-12, under-15, under-17 and under-19 sides, and completed his secondary schooling on a bursary at Glenwood High. He also played alongside former Proteas Mark Boucher and Makhaya Ntini for South Africa under-19 and the Dolphins B team. But that’s where his dream ended. Zondi always felt that he and his peers weren’t given a fair opportunity to further their ambitions, so when he was asked to head KZNCU’s development programme, he didn’t hesitate and left his post as director of cricket at Glenwood high. Zondi sold his vision of cricket development to fellow players, coaches and educators at school, successfully enlisting their assistance.

  • Cricket Morkels
    Cricket Morkels Google “MORKEL” to see how overwhelmingly the two cricket brothers, Albie and Morné dominate the listings. There is so much readily available in cricket information sites, youtube and others about these two outstanding players that for our story I shall be brief about their current achievements - which can readily be updated on the internet. If we have a contribution to make, it will be to place them and cricket in context of the broader family. Historically the family has been known for its prowess in rugby (see our story about the Rugby Morkels), but there has been an interest in cricket for over a century. Hendrik Johannes MORKEL (1842 – 1902), uncle of Rugby Springboks Sommie and Dougie MORKEL, was elected in November 1886 as Chairman of the first Cricket Club on the very new goldfields of the Witwatersrand (1, p45). One of his sons was a ‘very fair left- handed bowler (1, p 53). Dougie and his older brother Harry were also good cricketers (1, p52). Two early first class Morkel cricketers were brothers Denys (Denijs) and Raymond MORKEL (1, p53). They were inspired to cricket by their father, William MORKEL (1864 – 1926). From his obituary (1, p27) and the memoirs of J.P. Duminy (2), former Vice-Chancellor of Cape Town University, we know that William was a remarkable sportsman. Born in Somerset West he was a senior public servant and retired to his Windsor farm near Cape Town at Diep River. His keenest interest from his younger days was cricket. He played for Claremont Cricket Club in Cape Town for many years, primarily as a bowler.

A time when full contact sport no longer holds centre stage. It is a passage of time when the art of sport is appreciated over the physicality of competition. Today, latent skills and blossoming talent has a place amongst our youth and the generations to come. It is now the subtle brilliance of deftness, the art of touch, mastery of stroke and pure strategic guile that has turned cricket into the sport of the future. Today cricket is the stage for mental agility and peak physical condition. It is purity of both mind and spirit that produces champions. The re-invention of cricket globally has rejuvenated a desire to master the ultimate game. A sense of camaraderie pursued by both men and women alike. It’s now a passion for gamesmanship, integrity, honesty and fair play. It is a game that can be embraced and played or supported by everyone. We can’t undo the past, but we can shape the future. We do what we do today in cricket, for what will happen TOMORROW.

  • Sport Awards 2015 Foreword
    Sport Awards 2015 Foreword The annual Sports Awards is a highlight of the Western Cape Government’s calendar. The Awards recognise and officially acknowledge the esteemed excellence of sportspeople hailing from the Western Cape. Today, we pay tribute to the exemplary role these individuals have played in the development of sport and motivating others to achieve more. I wholeheartedly thank each sportsperson awarded their prestigious acknowledgement for serving as a beacon of hope to all in the Western Cape. Their perseverance, focus and positive choices have groomed them into significant role-models to whom youth can aspire. Excellence in their respective sporting codes requires dedication, motivation and many hours of practice, but also most importantly support and encouragement from significant others: family, friends, coaches, managers and others. Heartfelt gratitude is expressed to them for their continuous support and encouragement toward our sporting success. Sport Awards 1 History has shown time and again that sport has the ability to bring diverse groups of people together and I fi rmly believe our honoured sport stars personify this notion. They also promote a healthy lifestyle in which they contribute to increasing wellness and safety in the Western Cape and for that I thank you profusely. By celebrating our victories and achievements we create a spirit of goodwill and social inclusivity that ultimately binds us all better together. In closing, a special word of thanks to all the DCAS team players for your hard work, dedication and professionalism in making the Sports Awards a proud occasion.
