IN a partnership that promises to further the development of school netball in South Africa, CompCare Medical Scheme has announced its sponsorship of South African Schools Netball (SASN) and Gauteng Schools Netball (GSN). “At the heart of this collaboration lies CompCare’s uncompromising commitment to empowering the next generation of female athletes. With over 2.8 million players nationwide, netball stands tall as a beacon of opportunity and excellence for young individuals. By joining forces with SASN and GSN, we aim to catalyse player development, fostering a nurturing environment where talent thrives and dreams take flight,” says Josua Joubert, Chief Executive and Principal Officer of CompCare Medical Scheme.
Expressing his enthusiasm for the partnership, Joubert added, “CompCare is not merely a sponsor; we are catalysts for change. We recognise the transformative power of sport, and through this collaboration, we are poised to ignite a revolution in school netball. By championing wellness and injury cover tailored to athletes needs, we are paving the way for a brighter and safer future for our sporting community.” Di Woolley, President of SASN, echoed Joubert›s sentiments, emphasising the pivotal role netball plays in shaping the lives of young athletes. ‘‘Netball transcends boundaries; it instils discipline, teamwork, and resilience. With CompCare’s steadfast support, we are poised to elevate the sport to unprecedented heights. Together, we will unlock the full potential of every player, ensuring that no talent goes unnoticed or uncelebrated.’’
“There are more than 20 000 schools playing netball and over 20 000 umpires, most of whom are teachers offering their time to the sport voluntarily; such is the drive behind netball as a sport for learners. We are delighted to work with such a well-established and highly respected medical scheme as CompCare. We look forward to the many positive developments this partnership promises to deliver for the young netball players of Gauteng and South Africa. “As excitement mounts and anticipation builds, players and other stakeholders are urged to join the movement and become part of SA netball history in the making. With CompCare in our corner, the future of school netball has never looked brighter,” concluded Woolley.
