Police Captain Esau Miya has been chosen to represent South Africa in Spain for the Police Athletics game and his achievements in sports are outstanding!
Police Captain Esau Miya from the Norwood Police Station has a talent for athletics which is why he is being considered to represent South Africa in Spain. The captain has won many gold medals for South Africa in the past.
He has been selected to compete and represent the South African Police Services in the South African Athletics Masters. Captain Miya won four medals at the National SAPS Athletics Championships held in Tshwane in March.
His field of practice is race and track events, shining in long distance running. During the March championship, Miya won two silver medals for the 800m road race and the 1,500m race. He then won two gold medals for the 5,000m and the cross-country race respectively.
In April he won another gold for long-distance running which tipped him to be selected to compete on the international stage.
“He is in a position to be selected to represent South Africa in Spain in an upcoming athletics competition wearing South Africa’s colours,”
“This will be a great achievement for him and the SAPS at large. He’s participating in the marathons and his contribution to the Gauteng SAPS marathon team also plays a vital role to put the police service in a competitive standard along with private teams.” – Captain Elliot Tshivhase, Norwood Police Station Spokesperson.
Captain Miya would make South African’s very proud if he represented the country in Spain. We look forward to hearing more about his successes and will keep you posted.
