 The South African Army Combat Training Centre was founded on 15 January 1978 and was initially known as the South African Army Battle School until October 2000. Lt Gen G.L. Ramano officially unveiled the new name on October 24, 2000.

The development of the SA Army Combat Training Centre originated due to an existing need for a training area where conventional and integrated training on divisional level could be executed. Combined practical training is a requirement that applies to all armies world-wide.

Since the existence of the SA Army Combat Training Centre the terrain has been developed and adapted to accommodate specific requirements of different army units as well as training aims for the execution of modern mobile combat exercises. The key to these successes lies in the facilities, technology and quality training.
