Konkola Copper Mines-sponsored Zambia Open Golf tourney tees-off greener and richer!
O
ver 100 professional and amateur golfers will tee-off on the brightened greens
of Nchanga Golf Club in search of insignia and
top-prize money during the 2011 Zambia Open
Golf tournament, a fixture in the Southern African Sunshine Tour.
The tournament billed for October is the premier golf championship in Zambia, which draws
the attention of many local and international
players.
Golfers from Great Britain, Brazil and Kenya,
including those from Zimbabwe form part of the
pack pursuing the major prizes on the Zambia
Golf Union (ZGU) calendar.
Fighting for top honours will also be some big
name players from Uganda, Botswana, South
Africa and Nambia. In addition, about 160 caddies from Lusaka and the Copperbelt have all
been trained for the event and several hundred
officials, support staff and spectators are all
geared-up to grace the biggest sporting event
held in Chingola for decades.
Hosting this tournament fulfills Konkola Copper Mines (KCMs) vision to reward residents of
Chingola and its employees with a major sporting event that unlocks massive economic and
social benefit for many, says CEO Jeyakumar
Janakaraj . It also underlines the importance of
KCMs focus on Zambias sports development,
under its Corporate Social Responsibility programme.
In a bid to attract several high-ranked players,
KCM has increased the purse by 50 percent to
1.2 million rand. This makes this golf champion-
Bon Voyage
Out of sport we also get role models, it provides income to so many people, especially young
people, and tax benefits accruing to the government are quite large. I am glad KCM is taking
the mantle to move the sport of golf forward by
refurbishing the Nchanga Golf Club, he says.
with
Mr Mulonga says Zambians should be encouraged to excel at the Zambia Open Golf tournament because the prize money they are likely
to bag would be pumped back into the national
economy.

DRAMA AT 7A- SIDE SCHOOLS RUGBY As Rank outsiders Chifubu Scoop Championship
R
By Humphrey Lombe
they thought the match had been won. Chengelo got the
equalising try exactly one minute before full time through
Luyando Muchimba. Unfortunately, Luyando was taken
off the field after incurring an injury from a knock to the
back of the head and the match was tied 10 apiece at full
time forcing play into a sudden death, meaning that the
team managing to break the ice first by scoring a try
wins the tie.
Against all odds, Chifubu broke away from the Chengelo
defence, and as Lubasi Mubiana received a pass in front
of the Chengelo goal; running in full flight in an effort
to snatch a try, he was stopped by a flying tackle that
had him grounded, and as players jostled in a scrum,
Chifubu proved the more tenacious and pushed and
pushed forward until Lubasi touched the line scoring a try
and recording a great upset by a nonentity side. History
was written as Chifubu became the first government run
school to be crowned champions.

Background:
Milk is more than just a drink; it is also a complete food product
which contains all the vital nutrients required for human growth.
Milk contains 14 of 18 minerals and vitamins that humans need
for healthy living, and it can especially assist with the
development of children.
In addition to the nutritional benefits, milk production also has
the potential to contribute towards economic development and
poverty reduction because it requires minimum imported inputs
and it generates employment in rural areas.
Targeting
15, 000
students in 39
schools in
Eastern
Province
Objective:
The Milk for Schools pilot project aims to provide a market for
the smallholder dairy sector and to create a demand for high
quality locally produced milk. This will be achieved by testing a
feasible, affordable and cost-effective model of providing milk to
school going children which could eventually be scaled up
nationally.
Public/private
sector
partnership
It is expected that this pilot project will not only lead to increased per capita milk consumption and
economic growth along the value chain but also allow smallholder dairy farmers to improve their
livelihoods and ability to invest further in milk production. In addition, the Milk for Schools pilot
project will help to increase school attendance and improve the health and academic results of
school children, leading to general productivity improvements for the whole country.
This pilot project forms part of the recently launched and government led Home Grown School
Feeding (HGSF) programme, which is included in the Sixth National Development Plan as part of the
government's social protection plan. The HGSF Programme was necessitated by the need for a
locally driven programme and one that has the additional benefits of stimulating the local economy.
Partners:
The Milk for Schools pilot project is implemented in partnership between:

In Zambia the main breeding season for the Blackshouldered Kite is in the early part of the year. Nests
are built in the tops of trees usually a thorn tree as
they need to be accessible from above. The nest is
a at platform of small sticks lined with grass, about
as wide as a standard ruler and less
than 10 centimetres deep. Both
parents help with the nest building.
3 or 4 eggs are usually laid which
the female broods. During this time
the male brings her food and later
he feeds the whole family with a
steady supply of mice and rats. The
eggs take about a month to hatch
and Mum looks after the chicks in
the nest for another month or so,
but as soon as they learn to y
she abandons the family. Dad then
oversees the young adults for up to
3 months until they are left to their
own devices.

business. I have an ox drawn cart that I hire out and on
average I make ZMK 100,000 (US$22) per day during the
harvest season with people taking their crops to town to
sell. I am able to feed all of my children, pay for school
fees and take them to the clinic for treatment when they
are sick. I am grateful to OSAWE as it has made a huge
difference in my life.
