Zimbabwe Provincial Development Team during the tournament. Mr
Jonathan Makola (coach and convener) is pictured here with the team that brought the shield

The Hart trophy which the team also won is besides the shield. Grant
Beahan qualifies for the World Cup Grant Beahan has qualified for the short course World Cup swimming in a time of 26.95 sec in the 50 metre men's butterfly. The world cup qualifying time is 27.75 sec. The course is scheduled to take place from 11th to13th November 2005 in Durban. Unfortunately, due to A level examinations, he will not be able to participate. Our cameraman found Beahan practising the butterfly stroke. Mid-Term Break
|
Time literally flies. It is hard to believe that it
is already mid-term break. Our cameraman was on the spot to take
pictures of what has become the familiar Falcon 'terminus' (the San Field) where our luxury buses and mini-buses ferry students to
final destinations in Bulawayo, Victoria Falls, Harare, Masvingo, Victoria
Falls and The Botswana border. For
some, the mid-term break will be shorter as they are expected back on
Sunday for exams to be written on Monday 17th.
