The 2018 Bank Windhoek and Marathon Sugar Training Clinics for athletes and coaches was recently held at SKW. While athletes and coaches were trained over a two day period, the coaches forum, presented by the Namibia National Olympic Committee (NNOC), was held specifically for coaches, parents and teachers. International coach, Ans Botha gave a special presentation at this forum. The training clinics, which were presented by the late Quinton Steele Botes, still continues and is made possible with the generous support of sponsors Bank Windhoek, Marathon Sugar and Coca Cola.

Top South African coaches, Charley Sthormenger and Lynly de Beer conducted the coaching clinics. The purpose of the clinics is to empower all coaches countrywide to work with athletes at ground level, transfer their knowledge, discover new talent and develop athletes so that they compete on national level.

The clinics are presented in various regions of Namibia. In 2016 it was presented in the Northern region and last year in Hardap region. For more information contact Leoni at leonivr123@gmail.com.
