Thursday, 11 June 2026
Three talented CPUT table tennis players are heading to Botswana later this month where they will represent South Africa at the Confederation of Universities and Colleges Sports Association (CUCSA) Games.
The trio consists of Logan Willemse, Zizipho Ntlali and Ntuthuzelo Lusithi and the Games are scheduled to take place from 28 June to 5 July in Gabarone.
Ntuthuzelo, a Mathematical Science student, said he was looking forward to representing Team SA and CPUT at the Games.
He has been playing table tennis since primary school and will be representing the SA team for the third time.
In 2024 he was announced as the Sportsman of the Year during the Sport, Arts and Culture Awards, presented by the Division of Student Affairs.
Logan, an Education student studying at the Wellington Campus, said she loved the competitiveness that the sport brought.
“I was so excited when I heard I had made the team as I have always wanted to be part of a national team.”
Accounting student Zizipho said she represented the Eastern Cape as a junior player but stopped playing after the Covid pandemic.
“I started playing again at varsity. Since I was a junior I have always wanted to represent South Africa so this is a dream come true to me.”
