    SPORT & RECREATION 257 Pocket Guide to South Africa 2011/12 SPORT & RECREATION Sport and Recreation South Africa (SRSA) is the national department responsible for sport in South Africa. Aligned with its vision of An Active and Winning Nation, its primary focuses are on providing opportunities for all South Africans to participate in sport; managing the regulatory framework; and providing funding for different codes of sport. The SRSA has a number of flagship programmes through which it implements its objectives. These programmes touch the lives of millions of South Africans, from schoolchildren participating in school sport, communities sharing in the benefits of mass participation pro- grammes and events, and organisations benefiting from the SRSA’s financial and logistical support. Initiatives Golden Games The 2011 Golden Games, part of the SRSA’s Older Persons Programme, were held in the Free State in October 2011 with the theme Celebrating Active Ageing. The Golden Games is a national event where persons older than 65 compete in various sporting codes at provincial level. Codes that form part of the Golden Games include soccer, athletics (800 m and 4x100-m relay), brisk walk, duck walk, passing the ball, rugbyball throw, jukskei and goal shooting. The Western Cape was crowned the 2011 Golden Games champion. All-Africa Games The 10th All-Africa Games took place in September 2011 in Maputo, Mozambique, and featured 20 sporting disciplines in which 53 countries participated. Events for people with disabilities also featured in swimming and athletics. Team South Africa finished first on the medals table, with 62 gold medals, 55 silver and 40 bronze, totalling 157 medals.

Signed: (MARC WILLIAM FLETCHER) Date: iii iv ABSTRACT South African political elites framed the country’s successful bid to host the 2010 FIFA World Cup in terms of nation-building, evoking imagery of South African unity. 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.

  • Annual Report and Financial Statements 2007 ‘To Address Poverty at Its Core, We Need a Uniguely African Green Revolution’
    Annual Report and Financial Statements 2007 ‘To address poverty at its core, we need a uniguely African green revolution’. - Kofi Annan Vuka Sizwe! South Africa, with its multiplicity of cultures and the type of rights its citizenry enjoys, has become an example to many nations around the world. The ‘South Africa Way’ of doing things has lately been equated to a world standard of building lasting peace and a lasting nation amongst otherwise diverse cultures. It is against this backdrop that the continuance of such a cause should be championed by a giant such as the SABC, because the SABC exists for the greater public good. The SABC is thus driven by what would be of greatest benefit to South Africa and all South Africans. The SABC also exists to support, sustain and advance the democracy we live in, in a country rich in diversity. The SABC is more than a broadcaster. It is the electronic memory and consciousness of the South African nation. It is the archive and repository of the hopes, dreams and aspirations of millions of South Africans. This is where South Africa ‘happens’, where our history occurs, this is the keeper of the South African story – past, present and future. It is for this very reason that the SABC, as its new strategic vision suggests, has engineered the drive to maximise the empowerment of the South African citizenry under the notion of Broadcasting for Total Citizen Empowerment. This notion suggests that the SABC has taken upon itself the role of an enabler, one who forms partnerships with people and engages them to become, and one who engages people to take a higher ground in society.
