Rössing Uranium has pledged support to Swakopmund Sport Club (SFC) for its upcoming annual youth tournament.
The tournament, which received a N$50 000 sponsorship boost from Rössing, is slated for 9 to 11 August and again from 14 to 15 September.
This tournament will see teams from Windhoek, Rosh Pinah, Swakopmund and from the northern part of the country.
Speaking at the handover, Rössing Uranium corporate communication manager Daylight Ekandjo said youth and sports are part of the mine’s corporate social investment focus areas.
“We take keen interest in investing in youth development activities such as this, and we are continuously looking for opportunities to invest in youth development projects. The work of SFC is duly noted, and the impact is what we need to develop sports in this country,” said Ekandjo
SFC technical director Gerald Güther thanked Rössing for the donation, saying the funds will go a long way in ensuring young sport talent is developed.
“The donation will enable us to have a smooth tournament and make sure the young ones really get the platform to display and develop their skills,” said Güther.
