The SKW Youth Soccer Academy gains momentum. As the photo shows, nearly all players still attended the u/7 final which was late on Sunday with all the parents still having a long journey home.
From SKW perspective it was a solid tournament, we are at the moment playing very attractive football and are trying to always play the younger players in an age group. This principle is also applied to our u/17 NFA team, which consists of eight u/15 players and the team is after all amongst the top three in the.
Our aim is to develop football in the youth and not winning cups, which doesn’t mean that we are not trying to. All our coaches as well as the players and their parents more and more understand our concept. Our kids of all walks of life, grew over the past three years together and are standing side by side for the same aim - to be a good footballer when reaching the age of 18 and to be loyal to the club. We are not catering for accommodation nor transport and all our boys and girls made a plan to be at the field on time.
This shows the social responsibility our player learned to respect. What is concerning, however, is that there are only a few real clubs in our elite league while most of the teams are only teams decorating themselves with FC, and at the moment SKW is the only club complying with the FIFA Windhoek declaration.
This is a milestone for the SKW Soccer Divison, but the Namibian football stakeholders should practice what is preached and the benefits will be reaped in the years to come.
People must realise the before you earn you have to spend, if it money or in kind. Football is real life!

The fourth edition of the Ramblers tournament which is combined with the Delta School Windhoek tournament was a fruitful one for Cymot SKW. Three teams bringing home gold without loosing a single match, while SKW u/9 were only beaten in penalties in the final. Both tournaments were organised very well. At the Ramblers tournament it was the age groups u/7 till u/13 showing off, while the Delta Secondary School invited the u/15, u/17 boys and girls. According to SKW’s Rolf Beiter very good football was displayed especially in the elder age groups. All results and photos can be viewed on Tournament Page.

Kakuva calls players to report on Monday 1 August 2011 at 18h30 – five players of the SKW u/17 included
Lesley Kakuva will again be given total and sole control as Cymot SKW head coach for the season 2011/2012.
Cymot SKW will take up training coming Monday, 1 August 2011. Harry Januarie, part of the green and white outfit since 2007, will also be part of the coaching team mainly as goal keeper coach for the upcoming Premier League season. He is already training successfully in the youth as well. The coaching team will be completed by several coaches from the youth academy who will assist the SKW head coach during the season if needed. Still on board is Rolf Beiter, but this season Beiter will stand a bit in the background due to work commitments and the SKW youth. According to Lesley Kakuva, SKW will have trials for about 14 days and then the squad will be trimmed to 24. In several strategy meetings held during the past weeks it was decided to have a wind of change: the squad will be revamped completely, with lots of young players to take over from the not-so-hungry regulars. The whole world is following this route, our national team introduced young players, so the Olympia boys are following this trend. This strategy gives more stability to both players and club in view of commitment and loyalty. This continuity also applies to the technical team. January did like the mentor Kakuva two years coaching in the SKW Academy before being exposed to the NPL. Jochen Traut will act as team manager for the upcoming season which will leave the chairman post vacant for the moment. Who will follow in the footsteps of Traut will be decided at the AGM of the Soccer Division late August. SKW enters a feeder team into the second division to build up young players and get injured players back faster on the highest level. This is the last step to fill the gap between the NPL side and the youth. It makes SKW the first club to fully comply with the international FIFA statutes of a club.
SKW is currently negotiating with the NFA that players can be shifted between the amateur and the professional side as is done in the rest of the world. SKW will be the first club since Independence to enter two sides in adult football.
563 Archers with 184 coaches and officials from 56 countries participated in the WAYC in Legnica. Sebastian Fechter was selected to represent Namibia in compound cadet men division.
In the greens of the City Park the sports complex was used for the event. Two soccer fields with 60 butts were used during competition. Practise butts were on another field in the stadion, were the medal matches took place as well. It was a well organised championship, congratulation to the organisers of Poland. The recurve archers had a full FITA round as ranking round and the set system for eliminations. Compound archers shoot a 720 round at 50m as a ranking round and then eliminations.
Sebastian ended in the ranking round on 40th position out of 52 entries in compound cadet men with a score of 659. Bridger Deaton of USA was first with 699. For Namibia Sebastian has achieved a top score. Well done.
In the elminations he started off against L. Pardini (Italy) ranked 25th. Sebastian 139 lost against Pardini 144. At the end S. Hansen (Denmark) achieved gold, R. Domanski (Belgium) silver and A.Davarci (Turkey) bronze. For further results visit www.archery.org/livescores/ .
In overall Sebastian was ranked 33rd with other archers at the end of this event. An excellent achievement for a first time at a world archery championship.
The next WAYC is set 2013 in China. I hope namibian archers prepare well in advance and that we will be able to sent 3 archers per division, that we can participate in team events too.

SKW Football: Ralph Ellinger new chairman for the year 2011
At the SKW Football AGM, held on 20 September 2011, the soccer division continued the youthful change in voting 32-year young Ralph Ellinger as new chairman for the year 2011. Mr. Jochen Traut, now Cymot SKW NPL team manager and our representative of the Namibian football by serving on the Board of Governors (BOG) at the Namibian Premier League, convinced his committee to search for another chairman. At the end Ellinger was given the vote of confidence. He is an energetic, dynamic person and to link up with the youth he is just the right man to understand the modern youth for the future of the club. Re-elected to serve on the football committee were Jochen Traut, Udo Riedel, Harald Fülle and Rolf Beiter. The new members completing the 2011 committee are Günter Ling and Richard Starke. Ling will be the link between the SKW main club and the soccer division while it was seen with a delight that Starke is back after a year break from SKW football.

SKW defensive midfielder Edy Mangoumou is this month’s FNB Player of the Month after receiving the most votes from our panel of judges. It was quite tight in the end with Edy receiving four votes, Civics midfielder Heini Isaacs three votes and African Stars midfielder Jamu Ngatjizeko one vote.
Edy has had a great season so far for SKW and helped them reach second position on the log at the end of Round 10. As a defensive midfielder, he has been one of their star players with his strong challenges and robust tackles, his high work rate and speed to the breakdown. Read an interview with Mangoumou in the January 2012 edition of Namibia Sport magazine.
