The Mercury
|June 12, 2025
WHILE thousands cheered on Tete Dijana and Gerda Steyn as they powered from Pietermaritzburg to Durban in their 2025 Comrades Marathon victories, another group of determined athletes faced their own marathon — this one on greens in the Kingfisher Bowling Association.
-
Last Sunday marked the conclusion of sectional play and the beginning of playoffs in the KZN Men’s and Women’s Pairs Bowling Championship, with 190 pairs teams representing districts from across KwaZulu-Natal.
Hosted by the Kingfisher Bowling Association, the event coincided with turbulent weather conditions as a cut-off low weather system disrupted much of the province — echoing the chaos of the 2024 KZN Singles finals when storms similarly interrupted play.

However, as the year comes to an end, a lingering concern remains: will the Presidency be remembered only as a November headline, or will it serve as the start of a lasting economic effort with real effects on the lives of South Africans and our regional neighbours?
