EXECUTIVE SUMMARY South African football has been besieged by a lot of violence in recent times and as a result has been attracting negative publicity and criticism from a number of sectors domestically. All these developments have been unfolding at a time when South Africa is entering the contest to host the sport's most prestigious tournament, the World Cup (by this the researcher is referring to the unsuccessful 2006 Bid, which was won by Germany and the current 2010 Bid that South Africa appear favou rites to win). There have been a number of tragic incidences in which many people lost their lives and thereby prompting commissions of enquiry being set up to get to the root-causes of the problems with a view to eradicate them. These commissions have been met with scepticism by the public, who alleged that these were disappointing at best and were not addressing real issues but were instead protecting the people in soccer's management from taking responsibility for non- performance. The researcher therefore carried out this research covering a wider angle of participation including as many stakeholders as possible with a view to finding out what collective solutions could be reached to stamp out violence in South African football. The aim of the research was to come up with recommendations that would be presented to the powers that be in South African football from as inclusive stakeholders as possible to tackle violence in the sport. The researcher included the following stakeholders in the study: match officials (also known as referees), players, supporters/fans, administrators (this category included: coaches, team managers, and team spokespeople). The research methods used were a combination of a survey questionnaire, interviews with the relevant stakeholders and a focus group. The focus group was primarily used for validation and triangulation (and also to bring in a ill dimension that the researcher might have missed) to ensure that the recommendations made (which is the aim of this research) are geared towards tackling the issues uncovered by the findings. The researcher hopes that the recommendations made at the end of the study will be well received by the football authorities in the country and perhaps some (if not all) would be considered for implementation as the spectrum of stakeholders that participated is wide. Too many lives have been lost needlessly and it is imperative that appropriate action be taken to stem out this tide for the good of the sport. It is important to note that all stakeholders need each other to eradicate violence in the sport and it is in everybody's interest to work together to achieve this and to see South Africa winning the Bid to host the World Cup in 2010. lv TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1 Research proposal...............................................................1 1.1 Background...............................................................1 1.2 Statement of the problem.............................................2 1.3 Purpose of the Study (aim)...........................................2 1.4 Objectives.................................................................3 1.4.1 Objective 1 .......................................................3 1.4.2 Objective 2.......................................................3 1 .4.3 Objective 3.......................................................3 1.4.4 Objective 4.......................................................3 1.4.5 Objective 5.......................................................3 1.5 Relevance of Study.....................................................3 1.6 Limitations of the Study............................................... 4 1.7 Research Methodology............................................... 4 1.7.1 Literature Method.............................................. 5 1.7.2 SurveyMethod ................................................. 5 1.7.3 Tape Reviews...................................................6 1.8 Sampling.............................................................................6 1.9 DataAnalysis ....................................................................... 6 1.lOFurtherChapters ................................................................... 7 Chapter 2 Literature Review.................................................................9 2.1 Introduction...............................................................9 2.1.1 Sport and Emotions..........................................11 2.1.2 Sport Spectating Nostalgia.................................12 2.2 Sports Violence: manifestations and explanations.............13 2.2.1 Crowd Violence................................................13 2.2.1.1 The Celebratory Nature of Sport................13 2.2.1 .2 The Oxford School "ritual of soccer violence" thesis..................................................14 2.2.2 Player Violence................................................15 2.2.2.1 Brutal Body Contact...............................16 2.2.2.2 Borderline Violence................................16 2.2.2.3 Quasi-criminal Violence...........................16 2.2.2.4 Criminal Violence...................................17 2.3 The Dark Side of South African Soccer...........................17 2.3.1 The Social Context...........................................18 2.3.2 Kaizer Chiefs versus Orlando Pirates...................19 2.3.3 The typical South African Soccer Scene and Supporter.......................................................22 2.3.4 Other factors...................................................23 2.4 Soccer fan Violence (Britain vs America).........................25 2.4.1 Comparisons...................................................26 2.4.1.1 Historical development............................26 2.4.1.2 Sport Setting.........................................27 2.4.1.3 Social Conditions...................................28 2.5 Spectator Violence at Football Matches: A Social Phenomenon............................................................29 2.5.1 Football Hooliganism as a Social Phenomenon... .29 2.5.2 Official explanations of football hooliganism..........32 2.6 Soccer Violence around the World................................34 2.6.1 Season of shame takes shine off Roma's triumph .34 2.6.2 Anger after Angola-Portugal friendly...................34 2.6.3 Ban internationals at Vosloorus Stadium..............35 2.6.4 Soccer fans die in Stampedes (Africa).................37 2.7 Violence in other Sporting Codes.................................39 2 .7.1 Hockey.........................................................39 2.7.1.1 The Worstof Sports..............................40 2.7.1.2

  • Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa
    Project Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa The Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg (formerly known as FNB Stadium) was identified to be upgraded as the main stadium for the 2010 FIFA World Cup (hosting, among others, both the opening and final matches). The calabash, or ‘African pot’, was selected as the most recognisable object to inspire an architectural design representing the African continent. One of the biggest challenges of the project was the structural integration of the existing western stand into the new stadium. The stadium now has a capacity of 89,000 seats. Location Johannesburg, South Africa Client City of Johannesburg Contractor Joint venture Grinaker LTA/BAM International bv (formerly known as Interbeton) Contract period March 2007 – March 2010 Contract sum € 315 million ‘Technicolour calabash takes fifth place on the world capacity rankings for football stadiums.’ January 2010 000482-209 Scope of work The scope of work comprised the upgrading and extension of the old FNB stadium into an 89,000-seat modern stadium, including a partial demolition (75%) of the existing stadium. New offices and changing rooms were built, as well as a new players’ tunnel and a basement. The new roof was added with cladding all around and the installation of state-of-the-art lightning, Public Address systems and replay big screens were included in the contract. Façade and roof The façade of the stadium is made up of glass fibre reinforced concrete panels. With an arrangement of panels in eight different colour shades and two different textures, the façade reflects the shades and textures of the calabash.

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.
