Swakop Uranium has pledged N$260 000 to the Namibian Table Tennis Association (NTTA). 

The sponsorship will support the association’s efforts to expand its national footprint, strengthen coaching structures and drive grassroots development. 

The funds will be allocated toward training programmes, equipment procurement and capacity-building initiatives aimed at nurturing young players and enhancing Namibia’s competitive edge. 

“This partnership is more than financial support, it’s a vote of confidence in our vision,” said Taschiona Gawaxab, NTTA spokesperson, in a statement issued earlier this week. 

She added, “Swakop Uranium’s trust in our mission means a great deal to the association. Their investment will go a long way in helping us build a sustainable and inclusive future for table tennis in Namibia.” 

She went on to say that the partnership came at a critical time, as NTTA works to boost the sport’s visibility both locally and internationally. With national trials and regional competitions upcoming, the sponsorship is expected to be crucial in preparing athletes and coaches for top-level performance, she said.
