The popular tournament, now in its fourth consecutive year, is the brainchild of former Springbok stars Bob Skinstad and Rob Fleck. Medac/Rockets, the country’s leading manufacturer and distributor of sports injury bracing and performance gear will be the official rehab partner for the event.

This year is set to be bigger and better than ever with the number of teams being increased from 56 to 72 and there will now be four divisions – a heavy and light Beer League, The Vets League and the more competitive Premier League.

As always, there will be appearances many from local and international rugby legends such as Breyton Paulse, Leon Lloyd, John Allen and Malcolm O’Kelly. The tournament will include plenty of entertainment off the field with live performances from top acts such as the UK band, The Lightyears and the popular Cape Town based Me and Mr Brown. There will also be beer and food tents, children’s play areas and lots of fun competitions and giveaways including a kicking contest that will see one lucky winner walk away with a brand-new Golf GTI worth R365 000.

As the official rehab partners, Medac/Rockets will have  physiotherapists which will be on hand throughout the tournament to assist players with recovery and managing injuries including the use of a cryotherapeutic ice recovery pool and providing post-game massages at the Medac/Rockets Recovery Zone.

“The 10’s tournament is a great event to be involved in.  Our recovery tent provides all the players with a world class service of which we are extremely proud,” says Craig Homan, Medac CEO.

Tickets are available now through Computicket. (Kids under 12 are free)

Situated on a main thoroughfare and easily accessible via Koeberg Road, a major traffic route along the West Coast, the Centre Point Shopping Centre in Milnerton’s CBD has always been popular with people who work or live in the surrounding areas.

Now, with plans for redevelopment nearing completion, this shopping centre is set to completely change the face of the Milnerton CBD and become a convenient and secure retail destination for communities such as Koeberg, Milnerton, Wood Bridge Island, Sunset Beach, Table View and Canal Walk. Not only will the shopping centre generate new business and create much needed employment opportunities in itself, but it should also trigger further investment in the area to keep pace with residential developments in and around this beautiful and popular seaside suburb.

Zane De Decker, asset manager for PIC, is positive about the potential of this centre. “Centre Point is a true diamond in the rough. The site is extremely well located and has been earmarked for possible development since its acquisition in 2007.”

To ensure the future success of Centre Point, PIC appointed Lazercor Developments in July 2009 to conduct an investigation into the redevelopment of this shopping centre. After extensive analysis of the condition of the current building, the decision was made to demolish the existing structure and to rebuild it from the ground up. Although this would have severe cost implications, the owners of this new landmark building considered it a worthwhile investment in the community.

Plans for redeveloping the centre include three levels of secure, covered basement parking with internal access to the mall, plus two floors of retail outlets such as Pick ‘n Pay, Clicks, a food hall, full banking lobby, clothing shops, and a range of restaurants overlooking Table Bay, with postcard views of Table Mountain. The gross lettable area (GLA) for retail outlets will total 10 000m2, ensuring enough space for an extensive and diverse range of stores that would attract shoppers of all ages and interests.

In addition, the new Centre Point Shopping Centre has been designed to accommodate an apartment block on the Western edge (to be developed at a later stage), offering 60 apartments with 360o views of Table Mountain and Table Bay. Not only will these apartments be located in close proximity to all retail outlets in the centre, but also to the Milnerton golf course and some of the best windsurfing and kite surfing beaches in the world.

De Decker explains, “This mixed-use development will improve the retail offering in the Milnerton CBD significantly, and act as a catalyst for further urban renewal along Koeberg Road. We are basically aiming to create a convenience centre that will appeal to consumers in the greater Milnerton area, and serve as a lifestyle hub where both residential and retail space can be found under one roof. “

In terms of looks, Centre Point will not disappoint. The new building has been designed in a contemporary style, with natural colours and clean architectural lines based on a nautical context; imitating the maritime setting of the coast on which it is situated.

With regard to environmental awareness, the proposed redevelopment of the centre allows for greener principles to be applied from inception through to construction and operation. Passive ventilation of service passages, south-facing glazing, naturally ventilated parking – to mention but a few features – will promote greater awareness of energy use among both consumers and tenants.

According to De Decker, potential tenants are very positive about the redevelopment of the Centre Point Shopping Centre and see the transformation as extremely promising for both their businesses and the surrounding areas. “We are confident that the new shopping center will be very popular among shoppers and retailers alike”.
The leasing agent for the Centre Point Shopping Centre is Andre Bauermeister from Newton Commercial Properties. He can be contacted on 083 756 0729.
