Proteas players pay tribute to the coaches
KFC Mini-Cricket hosted its annual national seminar in celebration of the country’s largest development programme that feeds the potential of humanity through sport.
The programme does not only impact the 126 000 000 KFC mini-cricketers, it also has the potential to touch communities through the 13 600 KFC mini-cricket volunteer coaches.
Over 180 KFC mini-cricket volunteer coaches made their way to the annual seminar held in Sun City from July 11 to 13.
The seminar was graced by the presence of four Proteas players who inspired coaches by paying tribute to all volunteers who have been involved in making the KFC Mini-Cricket programme a great success over the last 40 years.
The players who attended the seminar include Temba Bavuma, Raisibe Nthozake, Tazmin Britz and Kagiso Rabada.
The Proteas were part of a panel discussion and they were joined by Cricket South Africa director Enoch Nkwe.
The theme of their discussion quickly turned to the coaches that influenced them when they grew up. What surprised the coaches in attendance was that these coaches were some of the attendees and they are still part of the programme.
