The World Disability Darts Association are pleased to announce the appointment of Stephen Maphike as our WDDA South Africa Co-ordinator.
Stephen brings to WDDA a wealth of experience and ability working and currently works as Deputy Director within the Office of Public Service Commission (OPSC).
As Development Officer for the Gauteng Darts Association, Vice President of Tshwane Darts Assoc (Pretoria) and Vice President of Tshwane District Darts, Stephen is also working amongst youth and disadvantaged communities to involve them in sport. Recently Stephen has worked to assist those living with disability to enjoy the sport of darts.
Stephen will be working towards creating a unified disability darts infrastructure within South Africa that spans all Provinces in an effort to integrate disability darts within mainstream opportunities.
We at the World Disability Darts Association see Stephen’s efforts as a milestone for the expansion of sports participation, bringing together those who can benefit from darts as a means of therapy, rehabilitation and community.
We look forward to following Stephen’s progress in South Africa and ask that as a worldwide darting family you encourage Stephen in his efforts.
