We even had the peoples coach Siya, the list is endless but all in all, Many thanks to everyone who helped to plan and run the event.
Massive congratulations go to South Africa's number one seed Harry who played mouthwatering pool which saw him go all the way in both lives and see him claim a whooping R24000 in the early hours of Monday morning as it was a long and gruesome road to get all the way. Harry had to overcome a lot obstacles along the way and left and lot of casualties along the way.
