In support of Athletics Gauteng North, Former Athlete Nixon Nkodima is set to host the Nkodima development race on the 23rd of July 2022 at Morula Sun. Event organisers expect a great number of support from communities with the hope that athletes will be inspired to participate in the Athletics Gauteng North Road running calendar.
One of the event planners Keabetswe Kgaswana revealed that seeing the lack of sporting events in townships motivated them to create the race. Kgaswana hopes this will be the first of many events to come
“We are still hoping for greater support from our local businesses and hoping that this event becomes successful and it is hosted yearly in our area of Mabopane”.
The race offers Athletes a platform to showcase their talent and experience some former athletes. Not only will the event benefit athletes, but the economy of Mabopane will also gain massive growth as a local resort, guest houses and the transport industry will benefit a lot from the event.
Kgaswana calls on Athletes to come in numbers and participate in this great initiative.
” Let us come together and put Mabopane and its surrounding areas back on the sporting map”.
