"Welcome to the Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport website. Culture, Sport and Recreation is an investment in the safety, health and welfare of our people, the growth of our economy and the education of our children. An investment in culture, sport and recreation represents an opportunity to prevent many of the problems associated with crime, health, drug abuse and antisocial behaviour. The website will provide you with information on matters relating to sport, recreation, arts and culture in the Western Cape as well as the people involved in the Department.
