When I was privileged to be voted in as President of SASCOC back in 2008 I knew there was a tough road ahead but here we are at the end of the Olympic cycle and back from the 30th Olympiad in London. It’s remarkable how those four years have flown by and just what an enormous amount of work we have got in. I must thank the CEO of SASCOC, Mr Tubby Reddy, the first Vice-President Ms Hajera Kajee, second vice-president Mr Les Williams, IOC Executive Board member Dr Sam Ramsamy and the entire SASCOC Board for their support and encouragement, especially in this last year. The reward for their hard work is the six shining medals that we brought back from the 2012 London Olympics. I salute Cameron van der Burgh, Chad Le Clos, James Thompson, Matthew Brittain, John Smith, Lawrence Ndlovu, Caster Semenya and Bridgitte Hartley and I think the nation salutes them too. These are the men and women who brought us the glory in London and they are the people who made all our hard work worthwhile. SASCOC I know I said 12 medals in 2012 was my goal but the Olympics is not a playground. It’s an incredible fight to get those medals. The entire world wants a medal. This is our most successful Olympic Games since re-admission in 1992 and the nation can be proud of our Olympic sports men and ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL women. I’m pleased to say that Operation Excellence which we started in order to give our prospective medallists the best support possible is a success, the six medals prove it. We still need 2011 - 2012 to fine-tune it, as it is a constantly changing challenge. Having said that the next Olympic cycle has already begun and we now need to look ahead to Rio de Janeiro in 2016 because we have to expect to improve our medal tally from London. To this end we will continue to work on bringing the Sports Academies up to speed and it’s also absolutely vital that the Coaching FrameworkSASCOC continues to work at producing the next batch of Olympic superstars. And I know I sometimes sound like a stuck network but we have to continuously look at more funding sources. Olympic medals do not grow on trees. I must tell all our National Federations that Great Britain have already announced a 500-million pound funding. Five hundred million pounds over a five year period at 100-million pounds a year is an awfully big sum of money. But this is the sort of thing that we are up against in the world of sport. We cannot just sit back and rely on the Lotto funding. I have said it before and will say it again. We at SASCOC have to be pro-active in our drive for funding. I must say though that Sport and Recreation South Africa and the Minister.
