We had a bit of a quiet week last week at UWBC.

No competitions but we did have some great tabs in sessions.

On Wednesday evening our Hillbillies played “Lord of the Rings”; the game is set up with three rings drawn on the green around the jack at different distances. Each ring has a point allocated to it and the players score according to which ring their bowl ends in. All the Hillbillies had a fantastic time, with Steve Smith finishing in first place with 50 points, followed by Clint Nortje on 46 points and Shayne Knott on 41 points. Well done to all who participated!

On Saturday afternoon we hosted a bowls themed 40th birthday… what a party! After a very basic intro session, we had 6 full rinks of non-bowlers on our greens, trying their hand at “old man’s marbles”. So much laughter and fun and some natural talent too! After bowls the partygoers had dinner in the clubhouse, followed by a bit of “tekkie squeaking” on the dance floor. Everyone had an awesome time and there were many guests who have found out just how fun and challenging bowls can be.

For information on hiring our clubhouse for functions, please contact Wendy on 071 353 2866.

On Friday Night we’ll be hosting our Friday Night Lights 4-3-2-1 competition. Entry fee is R70 per player including a beef or chicken burger between sessions.

What have we been up to at UWBC for the past week?

Wednesday the 1st of March was our monthly Halfway Toyota competition; we had a relatively small field of 16 players but still some great bowling to watch. Congratulations to the winning team of Ed Speed and Jo Boonzaier, as well as to the runners up who were Colin Burden and Mary Steytler.

Friday the 3rd of March was a really fun evening of Friday Night Lights. This was the second time we’ve played on a Friday evening and what an awesome time we had. The format was 4-3-2-1, with two sessions of 8 ends, followed by a bring and share braai. There was lots of laughter and merriment and some amazing shots delivered. The winner of the R500 cash prize, was Peter Storm with a score of 26. Second prize went to Rob Andrew with 24 shots and third was Barbara Hook on 22. Well done to the winners and thank you to all those who joined us to play, spectate and braai; we’re looking forward to growing this competition which will be played on the first and third Friday of every month starting at 5.15pm.

On Saturday the 4th of March we played our monthly Greendale competition. We had a nice field of 24 players and all who took part thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. Thank goodness the rain came down at tea time when we were all inside! Well done to Bruce (visiting all the way from Underberg), David Mainprize and Pat Ciro on their win.

On the 18th of March we’ll be hosting a fun quiz evening starting at 5.30pm. Anyone is welcome to enter at a cost of R50 per person which includes dinner of vetkoek and mince.

Water Tanks Are An Essential Component In Ensuring Ongoing Food Security

Food security has been a global concern for some time now, with about a tenth of the world's population suffering from acute hunger. The figures, and the footage that flash across our screens, is heart wrenching but lurking behind them lies another closely related threat – that of water insecurity.

Unknown to most, the agricultural sector is by far the largest consumer of water, needing about 70% of freshwater to survive but supplies are dwindling fast. Thanks to climate change, more parts of the world, including the likes of South Africa, are experiencing prolonged droughts and less predictable access to water.

On the flip side, global meat production has almost doubled since 1980, and we know that requires about twenty times more water than the production of cereals, vegetables, or fruits. Added to this is a world population keeps increasing, which in turn increases the demand for meat, fresh fruits, vegetables, and off course clean water.

“Consumers, especially those in developing countries, are the first to be hit by a crisis of any kind, but the scale and magnitude of water insecurity, and the corresponding affects to hunger and poverty is likely to be colossal,” warns Mannie Ramos Jnr, a champion of water as the most important currency in Africa and the COO of Abeco.

The dichotomy is definitely disturbing but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Some countries have already started to adopt new irrigation technologies to help save water that would otherwise evaporate, divert water that would otherwise be used downstream, and induce increased water use by improving the profitability of irrigation. As a pioneer in water storage solutions, Abeco have been working hard to do their bit, considerably increasing water productivity in the agriculture sector by storing plenty more green and blue water.

Water continuity through water storage can close the risk gap

According to Ramos, storing water in tanks for agricultural purposes is not new, nor is it an option but simply a necessity. As previous water crises in South Africa have shown us, the need to plan and track water consumption and save for continuity of service is essential. Water storage is almost an insurance plan, safeguarding, farmers, retailers, and everyday consumers from the risks of potential water interruption.

“Water is not only essential for agriculture but can also improve a farmer’s ability to grow food, raise livestock and produce cash crops. Hens especially detest changes to their routine and a sudden interruption to their daily water consumption can stop them laying eggs for up to two weeks, which can be devasting for an egg farmer,” explains Ramos.

Although rainfall in South Africa has always been unpredictable, by using a combination of rainwater harvesting and innovative water storage solutions, farmers can benefit from year-round supply and reduce their reliance on other water sources. Innovative reverse osmosis, UV systems, fine filters and agitator systems ensures that the water storage tanks are clean and safe to re-use when cleaning machinery or feeding livestock.

These water saving interventions can be costly for sure but the return on investment is a small price to pay, in comparison to the potentially devasting effects of doing nothing. “More research and investment into these technology solutions needs to be a high priority for every agricultural industry or the gap between demand for water, and the supply thereof will continue to widen, ultimately affecting food security,” he adds.

Failure to plan, is planning to fail

With the right water policies, the world can successfully meet the challenges posed by increasing water scarcity, not only improving water and food security, but also making a large dent in the 4.7 billion people currently at risk of hunger. Abeco is already encouraging positive action, working with some of South Africa’s biggest companies like Jumbo Brands, Nestle, Tiger Brands, RCL Foods, Spar and Distell to ensure long term food and water security in South Africa.

It is a monumental task for sure, but the risk of not doing anything is far worse, effectively thwarting the United Nations Sustainable Development goal of ending global hunger by 2030. Instead, an estimated 530 million people will be at immediate risk of hunger by 2050, including 155 million in sub-Saharan Africa and 140 million in South Asia.

“Water insecurity could also affect nutritional quality, which is a subcategory of food insecurity. Without water to cook healthier foods like grains and beans, people are left with no option than to rely on unhealthy, and often more expensive ready-to-eat processed foods,” warns Ramos.

The case for improved water supply and sanitation and better management of water resources is unambiguous in its significance. Not only can it boost the economic growth of a country but more importantly, it can contribute greatly to reducing hunger and poverty. And it simply starts with a water storage tank!

Treverton College school boys youngest to compete and first in their category at the Expedition Africa-Mnweni-Drakensburg 120 km Adventure Race

Treverton College Matric students, Kai Broom and Jarred van Alphen, aged 18 and 17, came first in the two man team category in the Expedition Africa 120 km Adventure Race which was held on Saturday. They were also the youngest competitors in the 120 km event.

John Collins who is one of the top Adventure Racers in the world was part of the 4 man (Merrell Songlines) team which came first in the 200 km race. Both he and his brother, Mark Collins are alumni of Treverton College.

Kai Broom says “This was a 12-24hr 120km adventure race. It consisted of 4 legs, the first one was a 40km track, we had to summit the berg and back down, we had to find the check points along the way and if you didn’t you obviously got disqualified. The second leg was a 20km bike ride to a dam, then the third leg was a 12km paddle across the dam and of course finding the check-points. The last leg was a 25km cycle back to the finish. It took us sixteen hours and five minutes to finish the race. We did have a few issues - we got a little bit lost in the forest, it rained a lot and there was lots of lightning and we got drenched. Jarred also got a few cramps but nothing we couldn’t handle, it was super fun. It was a challenge but we managed to finish top of our category and second overall.”

This extreme adventure race route was designed to take roughly 12 hours for the top teams to finish and 24 hours for the last team to finish. The first trekking leg had 2 170m of altitude gain and loss alone. The Expedition Africa-Mnweni-Drakensburg 120 km Adventure Race forms part of the Africa Series which is part of the Adventure Racing World Series and for the first time ever Adventure Racing World Champs will be held in South Africa in the Eastern Cape in October.

Green Corridors recently announced the reopening of the Inanda Wilderness Park, a much-appreciated community focal point in Ward 44, at a small gathering of partners, community members and people representing local leadership, schools and the elderly.

As gatherings could not be held during the hard lockdown periods of the COVID pandemic, the site was vulnerable to vandalism, and it was thus decommissioned.

Now with a focussed strategy to inject new life into the site, Green Corridors will reignite its programmes so that the local community especially school groups, and the elderly will be able to benefit from its offerings.

The concept of the Inanda Wilderness Park is that it is a unique multigenerational park facility that focuses on the promotion of health and wellness through an important partnership with the eThekwini Municipality, Green Corridors, the University of KwaZulu-Natal and new partners Kinship Programme. It takes a therapeutic approach through the provision of occupational therapy and environmental education through programmes promoting human development, ecology and sustainable living.

“The land belongs to Inanda Seminary School, and through the IWP programme we are able to manage this underutilized open space, which would otherwise be a hotspot for criminal activity or illegal dumping,” explains Nomfundo Phewa of Green Corridors. “We are bringing people closer to the open environment to harness the therapeutic healing abilities of nature. We do this by the preservation of our biodiversity and exposing children to the open environment from an early age so they are able to value and understand the open environment. This space is conserved as a natural habitat to provide a safe recreation space for children, the elderly and visitors to the area, as well as small animals and birds.”

The site is situated at the headwaters of the Gobhogobho River and is operated by Green Corridors. The park and its programmes will be managed by Wilderness Parks Coordinator Nompilo Ngcobo and Youth Mentor Nhlakanipho Machi with support from three wilderness parks site assistants.

Green Corridors will be working closely with the local community to ensure the continued integrity of the park. Physical activities for the elderly such as exercise and vegetable cultivation will be offered in conjunction with Masisizane Service/Drop in Centre, a day facility for the elderly in this area. Learner groups from schools will be able to take part in environmental education as well as use the park for physical development programmes.

The IWP will be open Mondays to Fridays, from 07h00 – 15h00

Green Corridors always welcomes volunteers to work within its many programmes which aim to connect people to their natural environment. To become involved email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Ever wondered what all the “nooks and cranny’s” of your outer ear are for?

Known as the pinna, this part of the ear acts as an acoustic antenna and is made of ridged cartilage covered by skin. Although its shape may look haphazard and random, the pinna's structure of “hills” and “valleys” allow us to interpret the sounds of the world around us.

If the sounds captured by your pinna aren’t loud enough for you to hear, it may be time for a free hearing screening or comprehensive hearing test with Butlin Hearing. Contact Claire or Mark in one of our two branches to book your appointment.

Call our Howick office on 033 330 3966, or Pietermaritzburg office on 033 342 2330 and let Butlin Hearing welcome you to the world of sound!

South Africa’s Biometric Power

Embracing biometric identification is crucial to a business’s success

Biometric identification is nothing new. It has literally become a fabric of our everyday routine, with most of us having things like fingerprint recognition readily accessible on our mobile phone to stop others from accessing our device.

In the corporate world though, biometric identification plays a much more important role in fighting crime and saving businesses millions of lost Rands each year.

“Our technology advanced world gives criminals a sophisticated means to commit fraud. Biometrics is the golden source for identification - an undeniable way of verifying that the person is who they say they are,” says Shanaaz Trethewey, chief operations officer at Comcorp, a software innovator and specialist in authentication technology solutions.

South African businesses of all sizes and in all sectors but especially in the financial sector must already ensure they meet strict identification checks and regulations set out in The Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA) and Know Your Customer (KYC), which are designed to verify a customer's identity and identify risk factors.

However, these anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism legislations are set to be adapted in February 2023, placing greater pressure on businesses that were previously not listed as accountable institutions to increase regulatory vigilance and implement stricter consumer due diligence.

The Benefit of Biometrics
The truth is that there are several plusses for any company who implements biometric identification. “The phrase ‘time is money’ is very relevant here. Biometric identification provides a quick and efficient solution to combat possible fraud and thus helps reduce downstream costs of a business,” says Trethewey.

These digital processes are also very relevant and appealing to the new generation of consumers and businesses outside of the traditional financial service sector. These generations are accustomed to the latest technology, and do not see the need for manual processes. They instead appreciate the levels of vigilance, protection, and compliance in the financial sector and are keen to extend this to all spheres of everyday life – from elevating their ability to secure communal premises to even helping courier services deliver parcels to the correct recipient.

“It is all about ensuring that the right technology is used at the right time to make customers transact with ease. Right now, the biggest challenge for businesses is to educate those consumers who value manual processes in the benefits of biometric technology. These consumers need to feel like businesses are working with as opposed to against them, in implementing processes that protect their identity and prevent them becoming a victim of crime. Anything that creates a high barrier to entry for fraud to take place is a positive step not just for a business but for a consumer too,” says Trethewey.

As a reputable software innovator with over 25 years of financial industry expertise, Comcorp is determined to change this, and possess world class technology. Their Liveness checking technology is advancing facial recognition beyond static biometrics, which still plays a vital role in authentication and identification.

Whilst criminal activity will always seek to find ways to overcome the ID check or "fake" features, Liveness checking technology pushes the barrier to entry that much higher.
Likeness checks prompt a person to move in a certain way. The images are then captured during this movement process and because it requires active engagement and the following of instructions, the process proves that the person is alive and the intended recipient.

Overcoming the challenges
The biggest challenge with implementing any kind of new technology is consent. A great deal of concern revolves around where and how data from this technology will be stored and for what purpose it will be used.

Surprisingly, the concerns don’t always come from the legal sector, but from ordinary consumers who are afraid of mismanagement, mishandling and misuse. Very specific laws which are in place to protect consumer rights like The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) for example should be a welcome comfort.

Another challenge is getting businesses to understand the cost they risk from not implementing these cutting-edge technologies. As Trethewey explains, the cost factor is determined by how long a company is willing to wait until implementing such a change, and what they will lose until then. In some cases, the cost of a lack of FIC compliance can result in a fine of up to R1 million and suspension of the business, also non-compliant parties can face jail time of up to ten years.

“The good news is that most companies already have platforms that make a roll out easy. After approvals and process discussions have been administered, and all stakeholders are aligned and trained, these integration projects can be turned around quickly and seamlessly by a company like Comcorp. The main challenge still remains; to take the first step. The recent FIC revisions will hopefully create a greater need and desire for change,” she concludes.

On Saturday Kevin Palmer & Wendy Smith played their Club Mixed Pairs game against Malcolm & Liz Tait. What a fantastic game! Kevin and Wendy went into the last end 2 shots down and managed to just sneak in a win by picking up 3 shots on that final end. It was certainly nail biting and well done to all four players!

As usual, we have some exciting things coming up. Keep an eye out for details on our Friday Night Lights which will be played on the first and third Friday of every month, as well as our all day competition which will be sponsored by J Leslie Smith & Associates, along with Oakleigh Funeral Home.
