Notable people
edit- Mbulaeni Mulaudzi (1980 – 2014), South African Olympic middle distance runner.
Stadium
editIn 2018, a R15.9-million grant was awarded by the National Lotteries Commission (NLC) to build a stadium. The grant was paid to Mavu Sports Development, a small NGO with no experience in developing large infrastructure projects. The NLC announced that the stadium would be named after Mbulaeni Mulaudzi and would be completed in six months.
By February 2023, only an athletics track, grass, and fencing had been laid, with acting secretary of the Zoutpansberg Development Forum (ZDF), Andries Dobi, saying that a lack of skills and corruption were the main causes of the delays in building the stadium. The Special Investigating Unit is investigating a case of corruption.[2]
