In 2022, NSSU team members and parents were left stranded after a trip to Potchefstroom, South Africa where they were supposed to participate in the COSSASA Athletics. They however realised the event was not taking place after travelling to South Africa by bus and arriving to an empty stadium.

The Namibia Schools Sports Union's Chairperson, Thephilus Nuugulu, and NSSU's newly appointed Coordinator, Roger Kambatuku have stated that public schools sport lacks parental support. 

The two administrators made these remarks on NBC's Intersport show.

Roger Kambatuku has been appointed as the National Schools Sport Coordinator effective 1st of February.

This is according to a media release issued by the NSSU national chairperson Teofilus Nuugulu just moments ago.
