Football
Founder of the Harders Cup Tim Ekandjo is inviting all Namibians to go and witness the annual Harders Cup tournament.
The tournament kicks off this weekend at the town of Lüderitz as teams from the south compete for bragging rights and prize monies.
“This is one of the biggest football tournaments in the country and I must say that all is set for the competition to kick off.
“I want to invite the football loving fans to come in their numbers and witness the cream of local football.
“The tournament can also serve as a platform for scouts to come through and find the best talent,” Ekandjo said.
