At Witbank Skydiving Club we realise that there is more to skydiving than just jumping out of planes. Between jumps you need to repack your canopy, you may need to plan and/or dirt-dive your next jump, you may need to get some refreshment to help you operate at your peak.

We have tried to provide for all the needs you may have while at WSC.

Because of the distance from Johannesburg and Pretoria (about 120Km, click for directions) most people like to make a weekend out of their trip to Witbank and spend the Saturday night at the club (the real hard core arrive on Friday afternoon so they can get in two nights of partying and lots of skydives). The club has a pile of matresses, which anyone can use for sleeping in the clubhouse overnight, these are available on a strictly first come, first served basis. Alternatively you may bring your tent and pitch it on the drop zone. Hot showers and toilet facilities are available in the main clubhouse.

We have a large braai area which gets used every weekend. The canteen also supplies great breakfasts and lunches, cooldrinks and chocolates during the day.

Once the jumping is finished Rob and Jason run a popular bar, with many different types of drinks to choose from: Beer, Ciders, Spirits, Shooters, Fruit Juices and cooldrinks.

For those not in to roughing it Witbank is a large town with motels and restaurants available (you will never know what you will be missing though).

• Accomodation

  Pitch a tent on the DZ, sleep on a mattress in the club-house or stay in your choice of one of the nearby guest houses. It is up to you. Check out the list of accomodation options in and around Witbank.

• Ablutions

  We have gone to a lot of trouble to provide you with clean, tidy and functional ablution facilities. Both mens and ladies facilities are located inside the club-house and have hot showers, toilets and basins ... everything you need to make your stay at WSC a pleasant one.
