BONTEHEUWEL

Set on the Cape Flats at the Bonteheuwel Sports Ground along Jakkalsvlei, the Bonteheuwel Tennis Club is still battling safety threats and vandalism while calling for a permanent fix to secure the facility and for the courts to be resurfaced [1][3].

The venue has long been a local hub, spoken of as one of the city’s prime nurturing grounds for young tennis talent, a point of pride for the community around the Flats [2]. Even as dangers around the courts persist, weekend coaching has stayed on the schedule: the club advertises Saturday clinics from 09:30 to 11:30 to keep kids hitting and learning the game [4].

Leaders around the club have pressed for stronger security measures and improvements to unlock more safe court time and restore momentum for players across Bonteheuwel and the wider Cape Flats tennis scene [3][2].
