NEWSLETTER - 2010

ROBIN MOORE'S BARMY ARMY WALK OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN WINELANDS

In aid of local township Mbekweni

The Barmy Army has become more than a fun-loving bunch of cricket fans from various backgrounds: as well as being loyal, passionate supporters of England, we are also ambassadors of our country who pride ourselves on charity work in particular for those less fortunate in life. The day after arriving in Cape Town I attended a cricket match at Rondebosch where we raised R12000 for the township.

As a founding member of The Barmy Army I look back at where I was in life at that time - ready to set off on a different type of adventure: one of walking Great Britain for Cancer Research and later the world for similar worthy causes.

Since that time I have walked over 33,000km, raised over a million Rand, written many books about my adventures and have coached/supported cricket wherever possible.

Having finished the tour, I opted to stay behind and help cricket coach Merwe Genis realise his goal of equipping Mbekweni Township with adequate gear to enjoy and improve in this wonderful God-given sport. We strongly believe that the spirit created within the cricket school will help forge friendships and good bonding within the township. The cricket field will help the children realize the need for self-discipline required to learn and develop. Cricket will teach them about the true values of respect and with backing of their teachers, time will be set aside during school hours for cricket coaching.

COST

The cost of running these activities on a weekly basis is as follows:

10 coaches: R2000

Petrol: R500

Food&drinks: R700

Future Cost, equipping, transport to matches/Boland Park, clothing, other matches. We could be looking at R32 per child per month.

My time comes free - I thrive off these challenges and the importance of putting something back into life. If we all gave up 2 hours a week to help some one or contribute to a worthy cause then the world would be a better place!

On Wednesday 20th January I will be setting off to walk the Winelands to raise awareness and hopefully funds for the Mbekweni Cricket School and will be appealling for support from local businesses. I will be looking for volunteers to accompany me on each leg of the journey to help distribute leaflets in all major towns. Cheques and donations can be sent to the Manyano Methodist Centre (Tony&Tineke - 021 827 2537): gifts of food in lieu of money will be welcome. Recycled or new equipment can also be sent and we welcome any free coaching time.

For information regarding this appeal please contact: Merwe Genis on: 082 575 7107.
