About us

Athletics Clipboard, created by journalist and former athlete Clement du Plessis, celebrates South African athletes who didn't get the opportunity to showcase their talents on the international stage during apartheid and the sports isolation years. The contribution of the coaches, officials, administrators, parents and journalists is also acknowledged.
