Sports at Pakati Sec!

Posted on by Friends Of Pakati

This week I heard from Mr Chizenya, Head of Pakati Secondary school.

They have been hosting the Zonal sports competition, which included the following local schools: Dombodzvuku High, Mabika Secondary, Mapukutu Secondary, Mubamba Secondary, plus the hosts, Pakati.

The sports covered are the usual ball games of Under 17’s Football, Netball and Volleyball.

Spectators settling in for the Zonal competition, hosted at Pakati Secondary school on 9th June

The football competition took place against backdrop of the school buildings at Pakati, as seen below.

Next up are the Under 17 volleyball boys in action!

Below are the Pakati Sec Netball girls (in white and yellow) in competition

I can remember watching Pakati sports competitors both at Pakati and other localities, such as Hokodzi, Rota, and Murewa, with vwey find memories. Pakati often punched above their weight, performing above expectations and beating teams or individuals from bigger schools.

Long may that continue!
