Growing Together
Annual Kouga Mayoral Cup
Do not drop the ball. Or even the gloves. And above all, make sure no one beats you to the punch – enter now for the annual Kouga Mayoral Cup 2024.
Kouga Municipality is once again poised to kick off the new year with a strong emphasis on sports, as a diverse range of sporting disciplines is already gearing up to compete in this year’s annual Kouga Mayoral Cup tournament.
Top Athletes
Top athletes in soccer, rugby, netball, golf, tennis, cricket, chess, boxing, gymnastics, volleyball, and touch rugby will once again compete for prestigious honours in this highly anticipated tournament.
The municipality is also optimistic about incorporating additional sports into the lineup – attracting even more participants than the previous year’s Mayoral Cup that saw 2 084 participants across 18 sporting codes engaged in fierce competition for victory. The final day witnessed 979 participants in action, accompanied by 45 officials overseeing the event.
Accredited sporting codes not yet affiliated with the Mayoral Cup are cordially invited to submit their entries before 31 January 2024. It is crucial to highlight that only participants associated with a sporting association are eligible to enter the tournament.
The adrenaline-fueled tournament is scheduled to span two months, from March to April, aligning with the theme “Growing Together”.
Breaking Barriers
Reflecting on the success of previous years, where themes such as “Shaping the Future” in 2022 and “Breaking Barriers” in 2023 fostered unity and excellence in the Kouga region, confidence is high for collective efforts towards a common cause.
“The focus of this year’s Mayoral Cup is to establish a benchmark for the growth of this prestigious event in the Kouga region,” said Kouga Executive Mayor, Hattingh Bornman. “The primary objective is to encourage individuals from all walks of life in Kouga to actively participate in various competitive sporting activities, fostering pride and social cohesion in the community.
“The Mayoral Cup is not just about winning trophies, it is about nurturing a culture where sports become a catalyst for personal growth, community development, and lifelong connections.”
