  2. INTRODUCTION • The SA Schools National Championship is one of the programs that emanates from the Schools Sport Strategy which is anchored in the memorandum of understanding (MOU) between SRSA and DBE signed in 2011 between the Ministers’ of Sport and Recreation and Basic Education. • The MOU details priorities and objectives of school sport and outlines stakeholder responsibilities. The inaugural National Championship was staged in Pretoria on 10-16 December 2012. • The National Championship is a culmination of league participation at local levels in schools across the country to clusters, districts, provincials and up to national level competition. • The National Championship has gone through a review process which resolved that the program will be divided into three seasons. That is winter, summer and autumn which is aligned to the articulation of the long term development pathway of athletes at schools as well as National Federation youth programs.

  3. INTRODUCTION • This SA Schools Winter National Championship is the first edition of the three seasons National Championship. • The competition comprised of majority team winter sports with the exception of tennis and chess. The rest of the 7 sporting codes are team sport, with the participation of boys, girls, learners with disability for Primary and High School Teams. • The winter sporting codes are: Chess, Football, Hockey, Netball, Rugby, Volleyball, Tennis, Khokho and Jukskei • The objective of this combined program for all age groups is eliminating several sporting codes parallel competitions that still require participants to pay fees in order to participate thus eliminating learners that cannot afford the required fees.

  17. CHALLENGES • Accommodation proved to be very expensive for the Provincial Teams as well as Technical Staff of the different Sporting codes. Event though Durban has three University Campuses with residences, the set up of the residences was not conducive for the championship as the residences do not provide catering for students. • A totally new turnkey solution for feeding the teams, technical officials had to be implemented. It came a very high cost as temporal kitchens had to be set up in order to provide for meals at residences. • The change of the new three seasons National Championship comes at a time where there has been budget cut across National Departments and Provincial Departments. SRSA had to prioritise what it deemed as necessary for the National Championship in order to reduce the costs of the hosting of the Championship. • As much as the competition has been divided into three, the sizes of the teams have not changes, as well as the necessity to inclusion of all learners to participate in the National Championship.

  18. CONCLUSION • SA Schools Winter National Championship was a success and it still provided the basis of its establishment, which is increased opportunities for learners coming from quintile 1 – 3 to participate in sport up to National Level of the competition. • A further review of the program with its technical requirements as well as aligning it to transformation targets of the National Federations is ongoing. • More funders and sponsors are required in order to sustain this competition and make it grow to the level where the teams can compete with the quintile 4 – 5 schools. • The gap still exist, where there is no financial support from the Department of Basic Education for this competition, especially with the model of three seasons. • The National Federations, Provincial Departments of Sport and Basic Education will be meeting on the 08 – 09 September 2016 to debrief the implementation of this new edition of the National Championship.
