Cape Town – The Cape Argus SportShow is expanding its scope after the inaugural event last year.
From March 24-26, Sandringham will host the three-day showcase that includes live performances, celebrities, clinics, exhibitors and games for the young and old.
There will also be a wide variety of activities from tag rugby, drone racing and paint ball to water sports and netball.
