Learning to swim

Bank Windhoek sponsored N$400 000 to the Namibia Aquatic Sports Federation (NASFED), with president Riaan Steyn saying the sponsorship will enhance gala events hosted throughout Namibia.
“Swimming galas allow participants to compete locally, better their times, and qualify for various championships, including the national championships,” he said.
Steyn said NASFED will also use part of the sponsorship funds for Corporate Social Responsibility through a “Learn to Swim” programme which will be facilitated by a roadshow introducing swimming training in various Namibian communities, which the bank added was one factor that it looks forward to seeing because Namibians all must have access to the skill of swimming.
Stein said another leg of the programme will include tutoring coaches to allow them to facilitate Learn to Swim coaching schools.
