The Office of the Vice-Chancellor has begun to tap into the

expertise of sport people who will enable MUT to drive its

sports strategy. On Saturday, 14 September, MUT participated

in the Parks, Recreation and Culture (PRC) Summit as a

strategic stakeholder.

The Summit’s main aim was to gather all sport interested

individuals and craft a single agenda for eThekwini

Municipality’s sporting organisations. This gave MUT a chance

to sit at the table where the future of sports within the

municipality was discussed.

MUT now has a chance to work with major stakeholders at all

levels as an equal partner. On this basis, MUT can now craft

its own way forward in as far as sport is concerned. MUT’s

participation in this summit gives the University a chance to

review its current approach to sport and establish bilateral

relations with individual sporting codes.

MUT participates in the eThekwini Sports Summit

The PRC, through its head Mr Thembinkosi Ngcobo,

committed to compiling a full report based on what transpired

at the summit and share it with more than 200 stakeholders

from municipalities, universities, schools and all spheres of

government.
