Athletics Namibia hosted its annual Senior National Athletics Championship in Windhoek, attracting top athletes from across 12 affiliated regions.

The championship, held over the weekend, was filled with competitive spirit, remarkable performances, and notable achievements.

Athletics Namibia President, Erwin Naimhwaka, expressed his satisfaction with the level of competition and performances.

He highlighted the eagerness of the athletes to compete, which led to some outstanding results.

Renowned athletics coach Henk Botha has reflected on the hardships he and Olympic runner Christine Mboma encountered in 2023.

While other athletes under the guidance of Henk Botha excelled in various championships in Europe, 2023 did not present the same fate for Namibia's sprint sensation, Christine Mboma.

She faced a temporary suspension from World Athletics due to high testosterone levels.

Namibia's talented sprinter, Christine Mboma, has received approval from World Athletics to resume competing in the 100-meter and 200-meter events. 

This follows the completion of treatment to lower her testosterone levels to the legal limit of 2.5.

Christine Mboma's coach Henk Botha confirmed the latest development to NBC, expressing his excitement about her return to the racing track. 

Mboma has completed her treatment to lower her testosterone levels.

Tim Ekandjo, the Chief Human Capital and Corporate Affairs Officer of MTC has urged Namibian, African and World leaders to take on World Athletics on their decision to change the regulations affecting athletes with Differences of Sexual Development, also known as DSD. Their regulations are effective from the 31 of March.

Namibia's two Olympians, Christine Mboma and Beatrice Masilingi, united to promote food nutrition in schools and communities. 

29 schools have so far benefited from the homegrown school feeding initiative by the United Nations World Food Program in partnership with the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture. 

The project aims to support school feeding programs with nutritious meals. 

The ||Kharas, Hardap, Kunene, and Zambezi regions benefited from the project, and the WFP has pledged to continue the food project in another 29 schools.
