Sent to you on behalf of Subcouncil 15 CITY OF CAPE TOWN MEDIA RELEASE 04 OCTOBER 2010 City’s Darts Team shine at National Metro Police Sports Event Cape Town’s Metro Police Darts Team walked away with top honours at the sixth annual National Sports Event for Metro Police Departments. Cape Town hosted the competition, which ran from Monday, 26 September to Thursday, 29 September, and included four other municipalities, namely Johannesburg, Tshwane, eThekwini (Durban) and Ekurhuleni. The City’s Darts Team was unbeaten in all their matches and won the gold medal at the awards ceremony on Thursday evening. Cape Town also took home six other medals: four silver medals for Pool, Women’s Shooting, Golf and the 10km team run; and two bronze medals for Cycling and Men’s Shooting. A member of the netball team received the ‘player of the tournament’ award and a member of the men’s volleyball team was awarded ‘most improved player of the tournament’. The team shared third place overall with the Johannesburg Metro Police Department, while eThekwini came first overall, and Ekurhuleni was placed second. “This is the second time we have hosted the event and the third time we have participated as the Cape Town Metropolitan Police Department. For us it is not just about winning medals, but the opportunities for team-building, networking, and uplifting the spirits of our officers. Most importantly, this competition gives our officers a chance to maintain a good fitness level so that we can better serve and protect our communities,” said Metro Police Deputy Chief, Yolanda Faro.
