Currently, football (for the purpose of this study, the term football and soccer are used interchangeably) has become the most heavily sponsored sport in terms of value and number of sponsorship deals. International events such as the Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) World Cup™ and the Olympic Games are the biggest sporting events staged globally which makes them particularly lucrative for sponsor investment. The high media coverage and duration offers an ideal platform to create high brand awareness, consumer’s recall and recognition for the participating sponsors. The FIFA Soccer World Cup™ tournament with its huge audience is perhaps the premier place for companies to display their brands on an international stage. Millions of rands are spent on sponsorship in general every year and on sports sponsorship in particular. Yet little is known about the effectiveness of this expenditure. Sponsors are often unsure whether only their brands benefit from a sponsorship or whether competing brands in the same product category also benefit from their efforts. The primary objective of this study was to determine sponsorship effectiveness through consumers recall and recognition. In addition, the study sought to determine the perception of official sponsorship and ambush marketing during the 2010 FIFA World Cup™. The event attracts billions of viewers and a huge number of companies associate their products with this event. A quantitative approach was adopted for the study. The data was collected using a convenience sample of 462 fans, supporters and followers of the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup™ in Gauteng, South Africa. To determine sponsorship effectiveness, consumer-aided and unaided recall tests were conducted after the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ in an attempt to quantify sponsorship recall of official and non-official responses In addition, the study sought to establish consumers’ perceptions of official sponsors and the v purchase intentions of their products and brands. Finally, consumers perceptions towards unofficial (ambush marketers) sponsors were ascertained. The high frequency of inaccurate responses through unaided recall suggests that there was confusion in the minds of respondents regarding those who were official sponsors of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™. This has serious implications for both marketers and sponsors as the effectiveness of sponsorship as a marketing communication tool comes into question. This may work to the advantage of ambush marketers who could effectively use the confusion in consumers’ minds to market their products and brands. Possible reasons for the inaccurate responses could be attributed to the fact that the World Cup™ is a once-off event that attracts individuals because of the novelty of the event and the multiple distractions that are associated with the event. The inaccurate responses may also have implications for future purchase intentions of the product since a recall level of awareness could be a determining factor in the purchase decision. This study revealed that sponsorship recall is enhanced by aided recall and prior knowledge of the sponsor. The responses with regard to aided recall suggest that consumers were able to recognise brands that were housed and marketed in South Africa. Brands such as Seara, Yingu Solar, Satyam, NeoAfrica, Aggreko and Prasa are relatively unknown brands in South Africa – therefore they were not easily recognised by the respondents. From a marketing perspective, the question arises whether it is feasible for foreign- based companies such as Emirates and Mahindra Satyam to invest in sponsorship ventures that are unlikely to achieve the desired results. These companies did not widely advertise in the local South African market. However, because the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ had a worldwide impact, this does not mean that global brands failed to achieve their objectives elsewhere in the world. In other words, they could have been playing to a much wider audience, in much stronger markets than that of the host country. An interesting revelation was that most consumers were able to recall brands that were global, mass-marketed and consumer-oriented such as Coca-Cola and McDonalds. This may partially be because during the event they were vi intensively engaged in advertising their sponsorship in the 2010 FIFA World Cup™. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION ............................................................................................................ ii DEDICATION ............................................................................................................... iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .......................................................................................... iv ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................... v TABLE OF CONTENTS ........................................................................................... viii LIST OF TABLES .......................................................................................................xiv LIST OF FIGURES.....................................................................................................xvi CHAPTER 1 .................................................................................................................. 1 INTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM ORIENTATION .............................................. 1 1.1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY ................... 1 1.2 SPORT SPONSORSHIP AND ABUSH MARKETING .......................... 2 1.3 PROBLEM STATEMENT ........................................................................... 3 1.4 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY ................................................................. 4 1.4.1 Primary objective ...................................................................................... 4 1.4.2 Theoretical Objectives ............................................................................. 4 1.4.3 Empirical objectives ................................................................................. 5 1.5 RESEARCH DESIGN.................................................................................. 5 1.5.1 Literature review ....................................................................................... 5 1.5.2 The empirical research ............................................................................ 5 1.5.2.1 Target population....................................................................................

Yet, a pre-season tournament in 2008 featuring the two glamour soccer clubs of South Africa, Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates, and the global brand of Manchester United, revealed a racially fractured soccer fandom that contradicted these notions of national unity through soccer.

  • Comparison of Air Pollution Hotspots in the Highveld Using Airborne Data
    Comparison of air pollution hotspots in the Highveld using airborne data Xolile Gerald Ncipha A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, In fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science. Feb, 2011 ABSTRACT The Highveld region is the economic heart of South Africa with a large number of different industries. As a result it has grown to be one of the most populated and developed regions in South Africa. It developed as an industrial region of South Africa because of its abundant mineral resources. The dense concentration of industrial, domestic and transport sources of air pollution have led to degraded air quality over the region. In this study the air pollution hotspots over the Highveld are compared by utilizing the airborne data of SO2, NOX, O3 and aerosols. The South African Weather Service (SAWS) Aerocommander 690A (ZS- JRA) research aircraft was used as an airborne platform to monitor air pollution hotspots over the Highveld. The aircraft is equipped with trace gas analysers and aerosols spectrometer probes. The flight patterns involved vertical profiles that reached approximately 3000 masl. Plume penetrations were conducted to characterize emission from specific sources and mapping to determine the extent of the spatial distribution of pollutants. The seasonal variations of air pollution in these hotspots are also compared. The airborne data is also compared to data from ground based monitoring stations. O3 concentrations were found to be fairly comparable over the Highveld air pollution hotspots in each season monitored. The inconsistency in the time and the meteorological conditions prevailing when the sites were monitored complicated the comparison of the relative loading of the other air pollutants over the hotspots.

  • South Africa's Coalfields – a 2014 Perspective
    South Africa's coalfields – a 2014 perspective 1Hancox, P. John and 2,3Götz, Annette E. 1University of the Witwatersrand, School of Geosciences, Private Bag 3, 2050 Wits, South Africa; [email protected] 2University of Pretoria, Department of Geology, Private Bag X20, Hatfield, 0028 Pretoria, South Africa; [email protected] 3Kazan Federal University, 18 Kremlyovskaya St., Kazan 420008, Republic of Tatarstan, Russian Federation Highlights • South Africa’s Coalfields are presented. • The role of Gondwanan coals as palaeoclimate archives is stated. • Future research fields include palynology, sequence stratigraphy, basin fill. Abstract For well over a century and a half coal has played a vital role in South Africa’s economy and currently bituminous coal is the primary energy source for domestic electricity generation, as well as being the feedstock for the production of a substantial percentage of the country’s liquid fuels. It furthermore provides a considerable source of foreign revenue from exports. Based on geographic considerations, and variations in the sedimentation, origin, formation, distribution and quality of the coals, 19 coalfields are generally recognised in South Africa. This paper provides an updated review of their exploration and exploitation histories, general geology, and coal seam nomenclature and coal qualities. Within the various coalfields autocyclic variability is the norm rather than the exception, whereas allocyclic variability is much less so, and allows for the correlation of genetically related sequences. During the mid-Jurassic break up of Gondwana most of the coals bearing successions were intruded by dolerite. These intrusions are important as they may cause devolatilisation and burning of the coal, create structural disturbances and related seam correlation problems, and difficulties in mining operations.

    Modelling source contributions to ambient particulate matter in Kwadela, Mpumalanga K Bosman orcid.org 0000-0001-5714-7060 Dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Science in Geography and Environmental Management at the North-West University Supervisor: Prof SJ Piketh Co-supervisor: Dr RP Burger Graduation July 2019 22258108 I DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to my LORD Jesus Christ, my dear mother Chantal Burnett and my grandfather Willem Renier Bosman II “And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.” John 21:25 (KJV) III PREFACE This study forms part of an intensive air quality sampling campaign conducted in Kwadela, a small low-income settlement between Bethal and Ermelo, Mpumalanga. The aim of this campaign is to quantify the baseline air quality during summer and winter in a typical low-income, domestic fuel burning community. Ambient air quality standards (AAQS) for particulate matter (PM) are exceeded, confirming that Kwadela has poor air quality. The 99th percentile of the daily averaged 3 3 PM10 is 96µg/m , and for PM2.5 it is 60µg/m . Judging from the diurnal profile of PM, with peaks in the mornings and evenings, domestic fuel burning is mainly responsible for these high ambient PM values. This is noteworthy, since Kwadela has fewer than 1 000 households and is located +/- 45km from the nearest industrial source. This also implies that fuel for cooking purposes is enough to raise ambient PM levels to above air quality standards.

  • The Maintenance of Wilderness Diversity in Africa K.L
    In October 1977 South Africa hosted the first international World Wilderness Congress. Delegates to the congress came from 26 countries; among them were statesmen and artists, scientists and poets, writers and businessmen and indigenous people from many parts of the globe. All came with the intention of expressing their hopes, fears and plans for the world's wilderness on an international platform. They came to establish a world understanding of the need for conservation, to make known to the public and the administrators of nations the fact that commercial and industrial growth must go hand in hand with the setting aside and preservation of more wild and natural areas. They came to establish a world wilderness order. Voices of the Wilderness is an edited compilation of papers presented to this congress. It will provide a worthy souvenir of the event for those who attended the congress, but more than this, it gives valuable insight into the problems threatening wilderness and wildlife throughout the world for all lovers of nature and the wild. Among the eminent contributors to the book are Laurens van der Post, (who has also written the foreword) Robert Ardrey, Iain Douglas-Hamilton, Ian Player, Edmund d.e Rothschild and a host of other renowned conservationists. Voices of the Wilderness is a handsome volume which should find a place in the library of every nature lover. International .... · WIidernessLeadnhlp ,-; Foundation 211 West Magnolia Vance G.
