  • Gimmies Toon "Guts" in Dominante Vertoning teen Duineveld

    Die sportvelde van Potchefstroom Gimnasium (Gimmies) was die afgelope naweek 'n miernes van aktiwiteit en spangees tydens die strawwe kompetisie teen Hoërskool Duineveld. Gimmies het weereens bewys waarom hulle as 'n sportkragbron in die streek beskou word, met uitstekende resultate oor die hele spektrum van rugby, netbal en hokkie. Foto: Potchefstroom Gimnasium Rugby: Onoorwonne op die Hoofveld Die Gimmie-rugbyspanne het 'n byna perfekte rekord gehandhaaf. Die o.14A-span  het die toon aangegee met 'n skitterende 54–0 oorwinning, terwyl die o.19A-span (Eerstes)  in 'n opwindende kragmeting met 38–26 as oorwinnaars uit die stryd getree het. Die diepte van die rugby-akademie is verder beklemtoon deur die o.19B en o.19C spanne wat albei hul wedstryde gewen het, terwyl die o.14B en o.15B spanne karakter getoon het deur gelykopuitslae af te dwing. Netbal: Naelskraap-oorwinnings en Intense Kompetisie Op die netbalbane was die kompetisie vurig. Die Eerstespan  het die toeskouers op die punte van hul stoele gehou met 'n naelskraap-oorwinning van 39–38 teen Duineveld. Ander hoogtepunte sluit in die o.14A (33–15) en o.16A (27–13) spanne wat oortuigende seges behaal het. Ten spyte van 'n paar uitdagende wedstryde vir die junior C-spanne en die tweede span, het die Gimmies se algehele deursettingsvermoë koning gekraai. Hokkie: 'n Doelfees op die Astro Die hokkiestokke het behoorlik geklap met beide die seuns- en dogterspanne wat die doelhokke laat rittel het: Dogtershokkie:  Die o.14A, o.15A en Eerstespan het absolute oorheersing getoon met onderskeidelik 10–0, 10–0 en 8–0 oorwinnings. Die 2de span het ook 'n skoon blad gehou met 'n 5–0 sege. Seunshokkie:  Die seuns het die momentum behou met die Eerstespan wat 5–1 gewen het en die o.16A-span wat met 'n reuse 7–0 oorwinning van die veld gestap het. Gimmie-Gees en Sportmanskap Die skoolbestuur het hul trots uitgespreek oor die "ware guts" en toewyding wat elke speler getoon het. Daar is ook spesiale dank betuig aan die borge—insluitend Fairtree, Brocor, Discovery en FNB—asook die Gimmie-sport Ondersteunersklub (GSOK) vir hul deurlopende ondersteuning. Bo en behalwe die uitslae, is Hoërskool Duineveld geprys vir hul uitstekende sportmanskap en die gesonde kompetisie wat hulle gebied het.

  • Dertig jaar later - Die Volkies-matrieks van 96 kuier weer

    Dit voel seker vir baie mense in Potchefstroom soos gister toe hulle in 1996 die skoolhekke van Volkskool vir die laaste keer as leerders agter hulle toegegooi het. Nou, dertig jaar later, is dit tyd om weer bymekaar te kom, herinneringe uit te ruil en te kyk hoe baie (of hoe min) almal verander het. Die Klas van 1996 se reünie vind op 23 Mei 2026 plaas en dit beloof om 'n dag van nostalgie en goeie kuier te wees. Die dag se program Die reünie skop vroeg af by die skool self. Die oud-leerders gaan die dag saam deurbring by die bekende Volkie vs Gimmie sportdag. Dit is die ideale geleentheid om weer daardie ou skoolgees te voel en te kyk of die mededingende gees nog in die bloed is. Wanneer die son begin sak, skuif die groep aan na die Volkies Wildsfees. Dit is waar die regte kuiersessie gaan plaasvind. Die organiseerders het drie Lapa’s bespreek, wat beteken daar is plek vir 30 mense per Lapa. Dit gaan lekker intiem wees, so dit is raadsaam om nie te lank te wag om 'n plek te bespreek nie, want kaartjies is beperk. Wat om te verwag Die spyskaart klink na 'n ware Suid-Afrikaanse feesmaal. Gaste kan uitsien na sosaties, wildswors, en natuurlike potbrood met konfyt en botter. Daar is ook twee slaaie, sjerrie en natuurlik nagereg vir die soettande. Daar is egter 'n paar belangrike reëls vir die aand wat gaste moet onthou: Daar is geen kontantkroeg nie, so bring jou eie drinkgoed saam. Gaste moet hulle eie eetgerei en glase saambring. Omdat ons almal nou dertig jaar ouer is as in 1996, is dit dalk 'n goeie idee om jou eie gemaklike stoel saam te bring. Hoe om deel te wees Die reünie kos R300 per persoon. Kinders onder 6 jaar kom gratis saam. Dit is 'n uitstekende manier om die goeie ou dae te herleef en dalk selfs 'n paar nuwe herinneringe te maak. Die reünie vind plaas by Kruisstraat 41, Potchefstroom. Vir meer inligting te kry, stuur 'n e-pos na volkiesmatrieks1996@gmail.com . Kry Jou kaartjie by Quicket Dit is 'n eenmalige geleentheid om weer bande te smee met ou skoolmaats. Sorg dat jy daar is.

  • Proteas Clinch Series Victory with Commanding 8-Wicket Win

    The Proteas continued their clinical run in the T20I series, securing a comprehensive eight-wicket victory in the second encounter. This result grants the home side an unbeatable 2-0  lead in the series, following another disciplined performance with both bat and ball. Image: Cricket South Africa Clinical Execution and Series Dominance The South African national team maintained the momentum from the opening match, outclassing their opponents in all facets of the game. The bowlers set the tone early by restricting the run rate and taking crucial wickets at pivotal moments. This solid platform allowed the batsmen to chase the target with confidence, resulting in a swift and efficient victory. The "comprehensive" nature of the eight-wicket win highlights the current gap in form between the two sides. The Proteas' ability to sustain pressure and force errors was the deciding factor in this series-clinching match. Focus Shifts to Johannesburg With the series already secured, attention now turns to the third and final clash taking place this coming Wednesday  in Johannesburg. For the Proteas, this match offers an opportunity to achieve a series whitewash, while also providing the selectors a chance to potentially experiment with the squad composition. The Wanderers Stadium, famous for its fast outfield and high-scoring matches, will provide the ideal backdrop for the series finale. The team’s #Unbreakable ethos will be on full display as they aim to keep their momentum intact ahead of their next international challenge. Match Summary: Result:  Proteas won by 8 wickets Series Status:  South Africa leads 2-0 Next Match:  Wednesday, Johannesburg #TheProteas #CricketSouthAfrica #T20I #Unbreakable #ProteaFire #JohannesburgCricket #Wanderers #SeriesWinners #CricketNews

  • Local Outrage in Ikageng: Taxi Trapped in Massive Road Cavity

    Residents of Ikageng were left in disbelief this morning after a minibus taxi plunged into a deep excavation at the "First Stop" intersection between Mapetla and Defense. The dramatic scene has sparked heated discussions among locals regarding safety protocols at construction sites within the township. The Scene at First Stop The incident occurred during the early morning commute, a peak time for local transport. The white taxi appears to have driven into a large, unpaved trench in the center of the road. Recovery Efforts: A large Rondebult yellow excavator was positioned directly over the vehicle, attempting to assist in the recovery or stabilize the surrounding earth. The Hazard: The hole, which occupies a significant portion of the roadway, appears deep enough to have almost fully submerged the front half of the minibus. Current Status Traffic: The road between Mapetla and Defense remains heavily congested as heavy machinery occupies the lanes to extract the vehicle. Injuries: While the vehicle sustained significant damage, no fatalities have been reported as of mid-morning. Motorists in Ikageng are urged to use alternative routes and exercise extreme caution near construction zones, as many roads remain unpredictable following recent maintenance work.

  • Boeresjiek: Waar Geloof, Familie en Pampoenpoffers mekaar Ontmoet

    Soms is ’n restaurant meer as net ’n plek waar kos bedien word; dit is ’n plek waar geskiedenis geskryf word, waar gebede beantwoord word en waar elke bord kos ’n storie van generasies vertel. By Boeresjiek in Potchefstroom is dit presies die geval. Wat jare gelede as ’n klein winkeltjie genaamd Mr Salad   begin het, het vandag uitgegroei tot ’n baken van sielskos en gemeenskapsdiens. Foto: Boeresjiek Die storie is ten nouste verweef met die lewens van Susan en Kosie, die stigters. Susan, wat vir 20 jaar ’n geliefde onderwyseres by Laerskool Baillie Park was, het haar passie vir kosmaak gevolg toe die geleentheid hom voordoen. Wat begin het met wegneemetes en slaaie, het vinnig uitgebrei toe sy ’n gaping in die mark vir egte, tuisgekookte Sondagetes raakgesien het. Vandag staan die tweede generasie aan die stuur met Chrisna, wat aanvanklik Regte en Sielkunde geswot het en in 2013 by die familiebesigheid aangesluit het , die jaar van die groot handelsmerkverandering na Boeresjiek. ’n Gebed op die Voorstoep Een van die mooiste staaltjies agter die skerms is hoe Chrisna haar man, Hendrie, ontmoet het. Chrisna vertel hoe sy as jong meisie gebid het dat die Here haar man letterlik tot voor haar voorstoep sou sê. Tydens ’n spysenieringswerk op die NWU-kampus het sy Dr. John van der Merwe ontmoet, wat so beïndruk was dat hy dieselfde aand sy seun, Hendrie, gebel het om te sê hy het sy vrou gevind. Hendrie het kort daarna by Boeresjiek ingestap vir ’n koffie-afspraak, en die rest is geskiedenis. Vandag werk die paar skouer-aan-skouer nadat Hendrie sy regspraktyk in 2018 verruil het vir die uitdagings van die restaurant- en spysenieringsbedryf. Die Geheime Bestanddeel: Emily en die "Ingewerkte" Pot Gaste wonder dikwels wat Boeresjiek se pampoenpoffers en pampoentert so uniek maak. Die geheim lê by Emily, wat reeds 28 jaar lank deel is van die span en die poffers soos ’n goed geoliede masjien bak. Met ’n spesifieke lepeltegniek en ’n reuse pot olie wat self ook reeds 28 jaar oud en "ingebak" is, lewer sy die perfekte ronde poffers waarvoor die dorp bekend is. Hierdie kontinuïteit en liefde vir die handwerk is wat die kos daardie spesiale tuisgemaakte smaak gee wat mens nie sommer elders vind nie. Gesterk deur Uitdagings Die pad was nie altyd maklik nie, en die COVID-pandemie het die besigheid hard geslaan, wat hulle genoodsaak het om een van hul twee takke te sluit. Vir Chrisna en Hendrie was dit egter nie ’n mislukking nie, maar ’n geloofsuitdaging waarbinne hulle daagliks van God se voorsiening kon getuig. Na ’n gesondheidsskok aan die einde van verlede jaar het hulle die dapper besluit geneem om Saterdae te sluit om tyd te maak vir rus, familie en gehoorsaamheid. Hulle glo vas dat die lewe oor meer as net ’n bankbalans gaan en vertrou die Here vir elke dag se krag. Winter-Sielskos op die Tafel Soos die koue intrek, berei Boeresjiek voor vir hul besigste en lekkerste tyd van die jaar. Vanaf Mei-maand kan kliënte uitsien na warm vloeibare goud soos hoenderroomsop met vars gebakte potbrood, asook tradisionele gunstelinge soos beesvleisbredie, pampoentert en warm kerrie. Vir diegene met ’n soettand is daar altyd vars vetkoeke en warm melkkos gereed. Terwyl die winter buite byt, hardloop die span in die warm kombuis rond om seker te maak elke bord kos voed nie net die liggaam nie, maar ook die siel. ’n Toekoms met ’n Hoër Roeping Vir die volgende vyf tot tien jaar is die visie vir Boeresjiek om meer as net ’n restaurant te wees. Chrisna en Hendrie sien dit as ’n bedieningsveld, veral vir jong mense en studente wat ver van die huis af is en onder groot druk verkeer. Hulle wil ’n lig wees in ’n donker wêreld en kliënte wat met bekommernisse instap, laat voel dat hulle gewaardeer word en waarde vir hul geld kry. Dit is ’n reuse mylpaal dat Susan en Kosie reeds 46 jaar getroud is ten spyte van die harde werk, en dat Chrisna en Hendrie nou al 12 jaar van huwelik en agt jaar van suksesvolle samewerking vier. #BoeresjiekPotch #Sielskos #FamilieBesigheid #PotchefstroomEetplekke #GeloofEnWerk #Pampoenpoffers #Tradisie #KookMetLiefde #NWUStudente

  • The Weekly Diary: Heritage, Governance, and the Newest Burger on the Bult

    Welcome back, Potchefstroom! We’ve officially crossed into the middle of April 2026, and the pace in our beautiful city isn't showing any signs of slowing down. Image (Created) : The Go-To Guy This week, the Go-To Guy  team has been balancing the "now" and the "then",from the launch of trendy new eateries and the arrival of world-class tool ranges to somber deep dives into our local history and municipal governance. Whether you’re looking to finish a DIY project, grab a world-class burger, or understand the administrative shifts in our municipality, Week 15 has something for everyone. Grab a cup of coffee and settle in for your 10-minute briefing on the life and times of Potchefstroom and Ikageng. Our Eyes in the Field: Potchefstroom Our "Eyes in the Field" team has been zigzagging across town this week, from the bustling Steve Biko Street to the quiet, hallowed grounds of Alexander Park. Here is the chronological breakdown of the week that was. April 13: A New Spot on the Bult – Stud. Burger is Open! We kicked off the week with some mouth-watering news for the foodies and students of Potch. Stud. Burger  has officially opened its doors in Steve Biko Street! The Bult has always been the heartbeat of Potchefstroom's social scene, and this new addition is already turning heads. Our team popped in to get a first look at the interior and the vibe, and it’s safe to say they’ve nailed the "urban-cool" aesthetic. If you’re looking for a new "spot" to grab a bite between classes or a Friday night treat, watch our video tour and then head over to Steve Biko Street to taste what the hype is about. April 14: Value Meets Variety – Ingco at Build it On Tuesday, our focus shifted to the builders and DIY enthusiasts. We visited the floor at Build it to check out their impressive Ingco range. Ingco has rapidly become a favorite for both professionals and home-improvement hobbyists because of its incredible balance between durability and price. The full range is currently on the floor, and the team at Build it is running some fantastic specials. If you’ve been putting off that home project, now is the time to get more value for your money. Image (Created) : The Go-To Guy April 16: Heritage and History – A Visit to Alexander Park Thursday was a day of reflection as we stepped away from the commercial hustle to visit the historic Alexander Park Cemetery. We had the privilege of walking through the grounds with Johan Wolfaardt, the Vice-Chairman of Heritage Potch Erfenis. Johan shared fascinating insights into the "stories behind the gravestones",the pioneers and residents who built the foundation of the town we live in today. It was a sobering reminder of the importance of preserving our heritage sites. Often, we drive past these areas without realizing the rich history buried right next to us. Our latest video feature explores this in detail; it’s a must-watch for anyone who loves the history of our town. April 16: Accountability – The MPAC Governance Crisis Report In a shift toward civic duty and accountability, we also reported on a developing story within the JB Marks Local Municipality. The Municipal Public Accounts Committee (MPAC) has officially flagged a significant governance crisis and widespread administrative non-compliance. This report highlights serious concerns regarding how our local municipality is being managed. At The Go-To Guy , we believe in keeping our community informed on the "uncomfortable" news just as much as the "good" news, as transparency is the only way toward a better-functioning city. April 16: More Gear! Ingco Arrives at Flotek It seems April is the month of Ingco! For those located closer to the industrial area, Flotek  has also announced that they are now officially stocking a wide variety of Ingco products. There’s no longer a need to drive across town to find high-quality tools for your plumbing or mechanical projects. Having a range this versatile available at Flotek makes it even easier to get all your professional equipment under one roof. April 17: Finishing Projects with Oppi Copy We wrapped up the week by visiting the team at Oppi Copy . If you have a project that needs a professional finish, this is your one-stop shop. From personal home decor like high-quality canvases to professional business needs like custom stickers and Plexiglas signage, they do it all. Keep an Eye Out:   They are very active on social media, which is the best place to catch their latest specials and competitions. Convenience: They are open Monday through Friday, and,crucially for those of us with busy schedules,they are also open on Saturdays . Image (Created) : The Go-To Guy Ikageng: Energy, Art, and the Basketball Court While Potchefstroom was busy with business and history, Ikageng was alive with the sound of music and the rhythm of the streets. April 13: "Payback Time" at the Basketball Court If you weren't at the basketball court this past Saturday, you missed something special. Payback Time  brought the heat for an afternoon of high-intensity dance and community vibes. Ikageng’s street culture is thriving, and the talent on display was truly "next level." Our team captured the highlights, and the energy in the footage speaks for itself. Shoutout to every dancer who left it all on the floor,the passion and discipline it takes to perform at that level is exactly what we love to see in our community. Stay tuned to our Ikageng feed for the realest updates on the local scene. Final Thoughts Week 15 has been a perfect example of the balance we strive for at The Go-To Guy . We want to celebrate the new (like Stud. Burger), support the local economy (like Build it and Oppi Copy), and respect the past (like Alexander Park). Even while our StroomStories studio is taking a short break, we are out there every day ensuring you don't miss a beat. Whether it’s at the stadium, the cemetery, or the shopping center, we are your eyes and ears in the field.

  • The Weekly Diary: Centenarians, Celebrations, and the Spirit of the Beautiful Game

    Welcome back to the latest edition of The Go-To Guy Weekly Diary! We have just wrapped up a massive double-week (Weeks 13 and 14 and 15) that spanned the end of March and the beginning of April 2026. Image(Created) : The Go-To Guy This period has been characterized by two major themes: the celebratory spirit of Easter and the incredible competitive energy of local sports. From high-end jewelry and Portuguese feasts in Potchefstroom to the thunderous roar of the crowd at the Ikageng Stadium, our "Eyes in the Field" have been working overtime. While our StroomStories studio remains closed, we’ve found that the real stories are being told on the streets, in the shops, and on the sidelines of our local football pitches. Here is your 10-minute deep dive into the highlights of the past fortnight. Our Eyes in the Field: Potchefstroom The local business scene in Potch has been buzzing, with a heavy focus on quality craftsmanship and preparation for the Easter holidays. March 26: Craftsmanship at Eternity Enterprise Jewellers We started our journey in Baillie Park at Eternity Enterprise Jewellers. If you are looking for timeless elegance, this local gem at 16 Parys Avenue is a standout. They specialize in bespoke wedding rings, bringing unique visions to life with expert craftsmanship. Beyond the custom work, they handle in-house repairs with incredible precision. Call to Action:  They are currently part of the Potchefstroom Herald Retail Awards . If you value local excellence, head over to their social media and cast your vote! March 27: Fueling Ambition at Nutrition Rage For those looking to optimize their health as we head into the second quarter of the year, Nutrition Rage on Holtzhausen Road is the place to be. With years of experience in the South African health industry, they offer more than just supplements; they offer expert guidance tailored to your specific fitness goals. March 30: Getting the Job Done with Board Boy In the heart of Potchindustria, we caught up with the team at Board Boy. Whether you’re a professional contractor or a DIY enthusiast, their precision cutting and high-quality boards are the industry standard in our town. Supporting local has never looked this professional. March 30 – April 2: Easter Fun and Winners at Flotek NW Flotek North West turned up the heat with their "Speckled Egg" guessing competition. The prize was a sought-after Torcraft gift basket filled with high-end tools. By April 2nd, the wait was over! A huge congratulations to Pieter Conradie, who was announced as the lucky winner. A big shoutout to Tork Craft for sponsoring such a fantastic prize pack. March 31 & April 7: Industrial Strength at Vescotech Maintenance never sleeps, and Vescotech proved why they are the ultimate source for electrical and mechanical equipment. With branches in both the Industrial area and Lombard Street, they’ve been keeping Potch’s projects running smoothly with expert inventory and advice. March 31: A Century of Life – Happy 100th, Tannie Peggy! One of the most touching moments of the year so far happened at the Potch Dienssentrum. We had the immense privilege of chatting with Tannie Peggy Haagner, who celebrated her 100th birthday on April 1st. Born and raised in Potch, Tannie Peggy is a true legend. Her wisdom and vitality are proof that there’s something special in our local water! Happy birthday, Tannie Peggy,here’s to a century of grace. April 1: Easter Prep at Canal Crossing If you visited Pick n Pay Canal Crossing on April 1st, you likely smelled it before you saw it,the heavenly scent of freshly baked Hot Cross Buns! From Easter eggs to the perfect cuts of meat for the long weekend braai, the spirit of the holiday was in full swing. April 1: Family Feasts at Pimenta Pimenta Portuguese Restaurant has long been a favorite for authentic, handcrafted cuisine. The big news this week? They are now officially kid-friendly with a brand-new play area. Now you can enjoy your peri-peri chicken while the little ones stay entertained. April 9: All-in-One Fun at Snowflake To wrap up our Potch coverage, we visited the Snowflake building. It’s officially the ultimate "all-rounder" destination. Whether you’re hitting the Padel courts, testing your swing on the golf simulator, or grabbing a slice at Pizzamoré, Snowflake has mastered the art of the social hangout. Image(Created) : The Go-To Guy Our Eyes in the Field: Ikageng While Potch was busy with shopping and dining, Ikageng was the center of culture, dance, and a massive Easter football tournament. March 27: JB Marks Market Day The energy at the Tourism Information Center was a perfect 10/10. Local SMMEs showed out in full force, showcasing everything from food to performing arts. And yes, the Reptile Experience was there for the brave souls who wanted to get up close with some snakes! March 28: Environmental Arts Festival The Kagiso Lerefolo Foundation hosted the 1st Annual Environmental Arts Festival at Chris Hani Community Hall. Schools like Seiphemelo Secondary, B.A Seobi, and Boitshoko High used drama, poetry, and storytelling to remind us of the importance of the three R's: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. March 30: Street Dance Culture The "After School Event" took over the basketball courts, reminding us why the Ikageng street dance scene is unmatched. The footwork and rhythm on display were a masterclass in local culture. April 3 – 6: The Cashibe World Cup Easter Tournament The Ikageng Stadium was the place to be this Easter weekend. The Cashibe World Cup brought the community together for a football spectacle. The Talent:   We saw incredible skill in the Under-15 and Under-17 Quarter-finals. The Legend:   We sat down with Lovious “Magents” Mohlokoane  for a tactical halftime breakdown during the clash between Rheinmetall Denel Munition FC and Sparks FC. The Vibes:   By the Semi-finals on April 5th, the stands were packed. Whether it was Tiki Taka  showing off their ball control or Marks of Excellence  waiting for the counter-attack, the "Diski" was top-tier. Final Thoughts These past two weeks have shown the true heart of our community. From the 100-year legacy of Tannie Peggy to the bright futures of the young footballers in Ikageng, Potchefstroom and its surrounding areas are alive with passion and purpose. We’re honored to be your "Eyes in the Field" while our studio is on a break. Stay tuned for more live updates as we head deeper into April!
