  • 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.

  • Analysing Rugby Game Attendance at Selected Smaller Unions in South Africa
    Analysing rugby game attendance at selected smaller unions in South Africa by PAUL HEYNS 12527521 B.Com (Hons), NGOS Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Business Administration at the Potchefstroom Business School of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof. R.A. Lotriet November 2012 Potchefstroom ABSTRACT Rugby union is being viewed and played by millions of people across the world. It is one of the fastest growing sport codes internationally and with more countries emerging and playing international and national games, the supporter attendance is crucial to the game. The rugby industry is mostly formal, with an international body controlling the sport globally and a governing body in each country to regulate the sport in terms of rules and regulations. These bodies must adhere to the international body’s vision and mission to grow the sport and to steer it in the correct direction. This study focuses on rugby game attendance of selected smaller unions in South Africa. Valuable information was gathered describing the socio- economic profile and various preferences and habits of supporters attending rugby games. This information forms the basis for future studies to honour the people that support their unions when playing rugby nationally or internationally. The research was conducted through interviews with influential administrators within the rugby environment and questionnaires that were distributed among supporters that attended a Leopard and Puma game. The main conclusions during the study were the failure to attract supporters to the Leopards and the Pumas local matches. The supporters list various reasons for poor supporter attendances namely: a lack of marketing, no entertainment, the quality of the teams that are competing, and the time-slots in which the matches take place.

  • Aug 02Nd Bible Reading: Isaiah 61
    The Benefice of Upper Wensleydale Trinity 8 Edition 20 ‘Church in the Home’ Sunday August 02nd– Saturday August 08th From the Vicarage The word ‘Praise’ appears hundreds of times in the Bible and we read of the call to praise God throughout its pages. The psalmists praised God in the good times and in the bad. Praise is certainly about thanking God for all he has done, is doing and will do, but it goes deeper than that. Praise is about declaring the truth of who God is and rejoicing in that knowledge and that is something that we are all called to do. Paul reminds us that praising God changes us. Philippians 4:4-7 It recalibrates the way we look at the world, changes our experience of it and our ministry within it. As we return to our buildings this Sunday for public worship for the first time in 20 weeks, there is much to praise God for. Some things, however, will be a little different as we manage the space and the way we do things; e.g. restrictions on us singing and sharing the chalice in communion, but I’m sure that our ability and desire to gather together to praise God as community will override all of these issues. I am extremely grateful to the teams of folks who have worked so hard in preparing the buildings on your behalf to ensure that they are clean and safe. In recognition of this Visit Britain have awarded us with the ‘We’re Good to Go’ accreditation Sadly, our family services will have to continue on line for a little while longer as the resources and materials that we use in our times together have had to be removed.
