WORLD CLASS PERFORMANCES EXPECTED AT THE 38th SOUTH AFRICAN MASTERS TRACK & FIELD AND RACEWALKING CHAMPIONSHIPS
Approximately 400 athletes from the 11 athletic provinces of South Africa will converge on Rustenburg in the Northwest North Province on 25 & 26 April 2014 at the world class stadium, Royal Bafokeng Stadium . Miracle Magnesium, the new sponsors of the championships, and the local organising committee of Northwest North Athletics, hope to host one of the best national championships. We welcome Shaaron Sellars (javelin) from the USA, Raj Rathedi (800m) from Botswana and Richard John (decathlon) from Zimbabwe and any other visitors to our champs! Its pleasing to see the number of 'young' masters in the 30-40 age groups that have been turning out at masters championships, while past-Olympian Adri Schoeman will surely set the scene for some excellent times in the ladies sprints. Shaun Bownes who took the title of the Mens 40 - 60m hurdles at the recent World Indoors in Budapest will be looking at bettering the S.A. record in the M.40 - 110m hurdles once again.
