FC Tuks from South Africa
So far, the teams from Qatar and our Finnish friends were the teams who had to travel the furthest distance to Oldenzaal. This year, the FC Tuks boys from Pretoria (South Africa) break all travelling records.
The name Tuks originates from the Transvaal University College (TUC). Founded in 1910, it is one of the oldest associations in the country and joined a larger organization in 2003. The AMTUKS is now the amateur team of the University of Pretoria Football Club. The first senior team plays in the first South African first division, similar to our Jupiler League. They play their home games at the Tuks Stadium with a capacity of 12,000 spectators. A small club but with a strong amateur department where education and good guidance from youth are leading.
MAVU
The arrival of FC Tuks did not come through Joer. Roy Velthuis came in contact with Bram van Wijck, an Oldenzaler, who has lived and worked in South Africa since 2005. Bram is CCO and co-founder of MAVU, a nonprofit organization dedicated to communities who have issues with crime, teenage pregnancy and drug use. The issues are mainly caused due to boredom among young people who have left school but are unable to find a job. Contacts with FC Tuks and talks about the youth tournament, were fast and a U11 team will be coming to Oldenzaal for a week. This way you can see how small the world is and how sport is still spreading, even at a long distance.
