Coventry pushes for HPCs

GOVERNMENT has entered into a partnership with petroleum giant  Sakunda Holdings to set up high performance centres (HPCs) in the country to enhance the development of athletics, with one such facility set to be established at the National Sports stadium in  Harare.

A team of government officials, local engineers and sports administrators is in Europe where they are on a learning mission on how the country can uplift some of its stadia as well as how they can establish high performance centres.

They travelled to Spain where they toured the Real Betis Stadium and high performance centre in Seville as well as the Barcelona Football Club’s Camp Nou and Real Madrid’s Bernabeu.
