The Lesotho Dance Sport Association (LEDASA) hosts the first general assembly of the newly established Southern African DanceSport Federation (SADSF), at the Maseru Sun Cabanas on July 1 to 2, 2005.

In an interview the president of LEDASA, Ms Nts'ili Motsieloa, who was also elected the first president of the new regional body, said the activities of the assembly will be focused on the official launch of the SADSF, to be officiated by the Minister of Gender, Youth, Sports and Recreation, Mrs Mathabiso Lepono, on July 2, 2005.

Expected at the assembly are delegates from member countries of SADSF, including Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland and Zimbabwe.

The SADSF came into being after Lesotho and Swaziland recognised a common desire to  promote dance sport in Southern Africa. The two countries managed to mobilize other countries to join forces, and thus the establishment of the Federation on May 1, 2004, where the LEDASA president was elected the first president of the new organization.
