Paarl Youth Social Club

PREAMBLE
We, the members of the Paarl Youth Sports Social Club, firmly commit ourselves to a united Paarl, free of mass unemployment, mass poverty, mass inequalities and economic exploitation. We believe that this can only be achieved under the leadership of an organised and united youth. Our experience has taught us that to achieve this goal we must:
(a) fight and oppose discrimination in all its forms within the organisation, sports and in society;
(b) strive for maximum unity amongst organised youth and organise every unorganised youth into our sports and social organisation;
(c) ensure that all levels of our Organisation are democratically controlled by the youth themselves through elected committees.
We call on all youth that identify with these principles and aims to join us and the youth we represent, as youth in the struggle ahead. We call on all youth to set aside any prejudices that they may have and strive for absolute unity.
