“Part of the proceeds will go towards the club and towards a Rhino Conservation Foundation,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I must say that the club’s committee really gave their full support.”<\/p>\n

“We would like to say thank you to the Germiston council, we received tremendous support from them.<\/p>\n

“They made sure that our fields were clean and in top shape, they were working with us side-by-side.<\/p>\n

“We are over the moon with the amount of support and help we received from them, they really helped make this tournament the great success it was.”<\/p>\n

The club is set to host another tournament in August.<\/p>\n

“We are looking at hosting another two-day tournament on August 29 and 30, and, once again, all the proceeds will go towards the Rhino Conservation Foundation,” concluded Harley.<\/p>\n
