South Africa

We were approached earlier in the year to assist with funding the scholarship given to Tshepang by Balderstone Sports Institute.

So we come to the end of another year of our development program in Vosloorus.

At our IC SA AGM held on Tuesday the 10th of September, the committee was selected.

Whilst in London during the IC GB 100th anniversary celebrations, we were given a supply of IC shirts for the Vosloorus kids.

The Tennis Rwanda Children’s Foundation’s film won 5 awards at this year's 45th Annual Telly Awards. Out of more than 13,000 entries from 6 continents, the programme stood out and was recognised by industry leaders. 

As has become a very pleasant tradition, chairman Mike Dunk entertained the Cape Town members to a breakfast whilst he was in the city on holiday.

Two years ago Tshepang arrived in Vosloorus from the Nelspruit region in the eastern part of the country. He quickly adapted to his new home and very quickly came along to the tennis coaching.

The year 2023 has proved to be exciting if quite challenging!  It has arguably been the most successful in the history of the Kenton Programme.

Over the past two weekends, Gauteng East Tennis Association have held trials for next years inter provincial teams.

Once again we supported the Daveyton tournament. Daveyton is a similar township to Vosloorus and also has a development program run under the auspices of Gauteng East Tennis Association.
