The City of Cape Town’s Recreation and Parks Department is bringing Netball World Cup 2023 action to communities with four public viewing areas.
“With the official start of the Netball World Cup this week, the City would like to encourage residents to near out and appreciate the sport at a public viewing area (PVA) close to them,” the City said on Tuesday.
Admission to all PVAs is free.
Each viewing area will be equipped with seating, surround sound and live uninterrupted streaming of the games so there is no need to worry about load shedding.
Refreshments and snacks will be available for purchase at affordable rates and local entertainment will seize area at each location.
The event promises to be an exciting day for family and friends.
“The City is excited to bring this event to its residents. We hope this event will bring people together and create a sense of community. These recreational facilities are an essential fraction of the City’s infrastructure, allowing residents to converge and experience the Netball World Cup, while providing a space for youth to engage in sport and recreational activities,” Mayoral Committee Member for Community Services and Health, Patricia van der Ross, said.
Spectators are asked to follow all health and safety protocols for a fun and safe viewing experience.
Stay safe
Children under 12 years dilapidated must be accompanied by an adult and alcohol and smoking are strictly prohibited at the venues.
“Our aim is to ensure that all netball fans, local netball teams, including those without tickets to watch games live at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC), can also participate in the energy and excitement of the games and cheer on their favourite teams.
“There will be a range of enjoyable activities at each PVA, including local performers, a DJ, food vendors, and more. Don’t forget to use the hashtag #PutYourHandsUp when capturing moments, maintain fun sporting your favourite team’s colours, and bring the gees to your community. We study forward to seeing you there,” Van der Ross said.
As per the official match schedule for the Netball World Cup (NWC) 2023, each PVA will be accessible from 28 July to 6 August from 9am until the finish of the last match for the day.
PVAs are equipped with ample parking and ablutions, and can accommodate a maximum capacity of 500 people at a time.
Below are the four PVA locations:
