The Ongwediva Town Council will construct a new state-of-the-art sports complex with the hope of attracting domestic and foreign competitions to the town. The project, valued at N$5 million, will be located in Extension 17.

On Monday, the town council officially handed over the construction contract to Windhoek Consulting Engineers and ROHA Trading.

Acting spokesperson Penda Kashihakumwa said the project marks a pivotal moment in the town's development and commitment to enhancing recreational opportunities for residents and visitors alike. The first phase is slated for completion by November.

“Designed to international standards, this state-of-the-art complex will serve as a hub for both local and international sporting events, fostering a vibrant culture of athleticism and community engagement,” he said.

The complex will accommodate soccer, netball, volleyball, athletics and more.
