WPA is proud to announce that we placed 3rd overall. Well done to the Race Walking Commission and the committed team who assisted in delivering a very successful event, despite the horrible weather conditions. The WPA Annual Awards evening was hosted on 25 October; we were thrilled to witness an enthusiastic and well attended event and would like to thank the clubs, athletes and administrators for their support. A complete list of award winners and photographs are available on www.wpa.org.za. WPA is anticipating an exciting Track and Field season. The season has started and we witnessed an excellent performance from Zandri Bailey with a throw of 48:41 and also a PB in the Junior Women Javelin competition. The final leg of the Kids Athletics program is well under way. Some excellent performances have already been achieved by the participating children. Special thanks must be expressed to Allen, Aphiwe and Tracy for their hard work and long hours facilitating this program. Coupled with that is the next round of WPA Coaches Courses to be held in November. The club administration program continues to facilitate a smooth and correct admin database within the province at all levels. The program updates will soon be completed; this will assist clubs in communicating directly with their members. The current member information must be completed before licenses will be sold to the club for the 2014 season.

RACE WALKING SA 50km and Interprovincial Race Walking Championships – Cape Town – 12 October 2013 Western Province Athletics once again played host to the SA 50km and Interprovincial Race Walking Championships at Youngsfield. Despite some of our best SA walkers competing at the World Masters Championships in Brazil, we saw a record number of 196 race walkers from 9 different Provinces competing in the various race distances from 50km down to the 3km. Credit must go to Western Province Athletics for stepping up in support of hosting the event at such short notice. Athletes were greeted by a cold, grey, wet and windy morning. This never deterred any spectators from supporting their athletes – possibly the fact that Olympian Marc Mundell and African Champion Lebogang Shange in action in the 20k had something to do with it. 13 Athletes took part in the 50km. Sandra Steenkamp (AGN) and Mojalefa Molise (AGN) won Gold for their Province in a time of 5:19:53 and 4:23:39 respectively. Some amazing individual race walking results were achieved; our own Ross McDonald bettered the previous SAMA M40 record in the 10k in a time of 48:54, Fred Clements (AGN) broke the M70 SAMA record in 1:06:39 in the 10k and David Morgan-Smith (ASWD) bettered the M75 record in 1:08:01 in the same race. In the 20km Ladies race, CGA race walker Elsa Meyer (W65) bettered the SAMA record with her time of 2:03:18. Anel Oosthuizen (ASWD) competing as a Junior made it quite clear that she was going for a new SA Record which she bettered by over a minute with a time of 49:25. She is now ranked 40th in the Junior World Rankings for the 10km walk. Another stunning performance was achieved by young Pierre Vermaak (CGA) competing in the 5km. He set a magnificent time of 23:27. This is a great comeback after being hit by a taxi while out training two years ago. The racing concluded with the 1km development race, where our little WPA development walkers entertained the crowds with some stylish striding. After all the walking, the medal table did the talking. Although winning the most medals, WPA finished in third with 11 Gold medals. CGA finished second with 12 gold medals with AGN taking the honours to finish first with 13 Gold medals. A special word of thanks must go out to the City of Cape Town for their contributions, as well as the WPA office for their hard work in assisting the WPRWC to host a very successful Championship. Next year promises to be even bigger and better with the future of not only SA race walking, but also WPA race walking looking bright.

The perfect running conditions saw local runner David Manya take line hounors in 64:09, with Lindikhaya Mthangayi in second in 64:21 and Xolisa Tjali third in 64:37. Manja took home R5 000 for his efforts. Tanith Maxwell won the ladies half marathon in 77:24, with Fortunate Chidviso (77:43) and Thabita Tsatsa (78:32) taking second and third places respectively.

Councillor Grant Pascoe, mayoral committee member for tourism, events & marketing for the City of Cape Town, fired the Cape Field Artillery gun to start the half marathon and ward councillor for the Atlantic Seaboard fired the cut off gun at 10h30.

    Western Province Athletics www.wpa.org.za November 2012 Newsletter EditoEditorialrialrialrial At last we can welcome summer after a very long cold and wet winter season. Unfortunately a few of the events hosted during October were heavily affected by the wind and rain. The weather at last is starting to change and the participating numbers are starting to increase. The highlight on the October calendar was most certainly the OUTsurance Gun Run, hosted by Atlantic Athletic Club. The participating numbers exceeded all expectations and the event was hosted in perfect conditions along the Atlantic Seaboard. WPA is looking forward to November’s two big events, namely, Landmarks Half Marathon, followed by the Mr Price Marathon and Half Marathon. The ever popular Wednesday evening events commence from 28 November. The quality of these events, hosted by the different clubs, must encourage temporary licenced runners to participate in more events with the ultimate goal of bringing them into the WPA affiliated club structure. The new Track and Field season is in full swing, an urgent appeal goes out to all WPA clubs to please inform and promote track & field events to their athletes. WPA is lagging behind with quality performances across the board specifically in all the senior levels of participation in Cross Country and Road Running. The lack of a proper coaching structure from National level down to the provinces and clubs is resulting in slow times and very few quality performances. The quality of the athletes within WPA can change as soon as we get these athletes back on track in all the middle distances.

    Western Province Athletics www.wpa.org.za December 2011 Newsletter Editorial A monumental year in Western Province Athletics' history is drawing to a close. This year has witnessed great changes in sport in the country, with the recent Sports Indaba setting the path for South African sport going into the future. It also witnessed major changes in the sport of athletics. Far from the turmoil of 2009, 2011 was the year in which the sport started to perform, WPA was central to this. It is necessary to take a couple of steps back into history and remember the role which WPA played in bringing about the changes in the administration of the sport after the scandals which wracked ASA in 2009. But it was not just in the role of activist which WPA excelled. When called upon to assist, we have been ready and able to do so. Such that ASA and other provinces have been able to call on ASA to assist with personnel and equipment when needed. When WPA was asked to step in to organise a track meeting for ASA, we did not hesitate. And we have not been short on providing leadership to the sport on a national level. Not many provinces have been able to boast having the ASA, SAMA and USSA Athletics Presidents all being members of their province. The year saw WPA hosting three internationally recoginised events, in the inaugural CAA African Cross Country Championships in March, the Cape Town Marathon and the SA 50km Race Walking Championships. In addition, Cape Town also played host to national track and field events, with the Yellow Pages Series and the Yellow Pages Interprovincial meetings both being held at Bellville.
