Sport forms a critical component of SA’s social fabric and is recognised as one of the key pillars of nation building.

Whether one actively participates in or merely supports any sporting activity, the event provides an escape mechanism from some of the harsh realities of personal and societal life.

In areas afflicted by severe socioeconomic challenges, sports and other recreational undertakings have served as a healthy alternative, particularly to young people, assisting them in circumventing disreputable social activities such as substance abuse.
