Supporting Future Champions with ECAS

At the Mbasa Qilingele Foundation, we believe in the power of opportunity and support to unlock the potential of young athletes. Recently, the Eastern Cape Academy of Sport (ECAS) demonstrated this commitment through their Individual Athlete Programme (IAP).

Through this initiative, ECAS provided athletes with training kits, Futurelife products, and essential sport nutrition education — giving them the tools and knowledge needed to excel both on and off the field. These resources don’t just fuel bodies; they build confidence, resilience, and readiness for competition.

👏 Congratulations to the talented athletes who are part of this programme and making the Eastern Cape proud:

  • Shilo Allin
  • Qilingile Mbasa
  • Brendon Gouws
  • Maximus Collett
  • Linelle Blignaut

These rising stars in athletics and powerlifting are proof that with the right support system, athletes can continue to push their limits, break barriers, and strive for excellence.

🙏 We extend our gratitude to ECAS for investing in the future of sport and ensuring athletes have the resources, mentorship, and education they need to succeed. With initiatives like this, tomorrow’s champions are being shaped today.

At the Mbasa Qilingele Foundation, we share this vision — empowering youth, with and without disabilities, to rise as leaders, athletes, and changemakers in their communities.
