CGA NEWS!
CGA have onto a new data system and they are asking all club members to please go onto the new system to fill out the ASA form. We do realize that members have filled in the form already and we have handed them into CGA office’s, but they want the members to take responsibility of going online. The new website is www.cgaonline.co.za. Please can all of you go onto the website and register yourselves! Hopefully, this is the end of paperwork!
Televised Comrades?
As most of us are aware, there are talks between ASA and SABC about whether or not Comrades will be televised! As of yesterday, this is the latest. Read here: ASA It will be a sad day for our sport if Comrades wasn’t shown on TV this year, so holding thumbs that it all works out!

CLUB RUNS

Join us every Thursday evening @17:45 and challenge yourself by participating in either our 5km or 8km time trial starting from the bottom oval. The first Thursday of every month is our social night where you can join us for a bite to eat and a drink or two followed by a raffle where we have prizes sponsored by the Sweat Shop.
