The eagerly anticipated rugby clash between the Welwitschias and the South African side, Blue Bulls, will now take place at a different venue than originally planned. Instead of being held at the renowned Dr. Hage Geingob Stadium, a new location has been designated.

Dr. Hage Geingob Stadium holds significant prominence as the traditional home of rugby in Namibia, hosting numerous premier league matches and national team games throughout the year.

The Minister of Sport, Youth and National Service, Agnes Tjongarero, says she is pleased with the National Youth Service programmes such as civic training, which she said instills discipline and cultivates a sense of volunteerism among the trainees.

Tjongarero said this at the 13th Pass-out Parade at Reitfontein in the Otjozondjupa Region.
 
Tjongarero says NYS plays a pivotal role in mobilising youths to contribute to the country's economic development goals as well as in fighting poverty.
