  • Jarred Meyer Overcomes a Broken Leg to Achieve a Boyhood Dream
    JARRED MEYER OVERCOMES A BROKEN LEG TO ACHIEVE A BOYHOOD DREAM Jarred Meyer is a rare commodity in South African football and has attracted a lot of attention since joining PSL side Jomo Cosmos. That’s because Meyer is one of a few white players currently playing in South Africa’s professional football league. Recent years have seen a dearth in white footballing talent and many experts and football pundits have been scratching their heads trying to figure out why this talent is not coming through the ranks anymore compared to previous years where we had the likes of Mark Fish, Neil Tovey, Eric Tinkler, Andrew Tucker to name but a few. No one has been able to find the answer to this million dollar question but 23 year-old Jarred Meyer is perhaps the pioneer of the resurgence. Jarred has shown great resolve and courage to overcome a broken leg and to finally achieve his dream of playing professional football, a dream that he has achieved through the Nedbank Cup Ke Yona Team Search. “I started at Bloemfontein Celtic with the under 17’s and then under 19’s but I could not break into the first team, so I went to play in the Third Division and that’s where I was spotted by the then Free State Stars coach Steve Komphela who is now at Kaizer Chiefs.” Meyer finally believed that his dream had come true after signing a pre-contract with Ealla Koto but his joy was short-lived when a horrendous tackle at training left him with a broken leg and he was eventually released by Free State Stars.

McInnes july 09 Issue No. 10 THE MARCOPOLOLINE 2ND CONFERENCE 19TH - 22ND NOVEMBER, 2009 – DUBAI, UAE Available to MPL members and non members newsletter_july09.qxd:Layout 1 3-08-2009 13:49 Pagina 2 1 DUBAI has frequently been referred to as the Manhattan of the desert. DUBAI has emerged as a leading regional commercial hub with state of the art infrastructure and a world class business environment. It has now become a logical place to do business. With its strategic location, and consistently strong economic outlook, Dubai is the ideal place for targeting markets such as Central Asia, the Middle East, Africa, the Asian subcontinent and the Eastern Mediterranean. In total these areas have a population of 2 Billion and a GDP of USD 6.7 trillion. Individual emirates, within the UAE, regulated their own economic activity as well at the Federal Government. DUBAI, has deliberately sought to create its own environment which is well ordered without being unduly restrictive. As a result Dubai offers business people operating conditions which are amongst the most liberal and attractive in the region. DUBAI is one of the seven emirates making up the United Arab Emirates. It is similar to an independent city-state and considered to be the most modern and progressive emirate in the UAE. 2 3 DUBAI is basically a desert city with a superb infrastructure and by regional standards, has liberal policies. DUBAI is just 5 hours from Europe and 3 hours from most parts of the Middle East, the near East and the sub-continent of India.

    The Natal Inter-Race Soccer Tournament of the 1950s:Reinforcing or Undermining Race Identities? By Mphumeleli Aubrey Ngidi A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Sciences (Masters) in the Programme of Historical Studies, School of Social Sciences, College of Humanities, University of KwaZulu-Natal, 2013 1 I, Mphumeleli Aubrey Ngidi (206516128), hereby declare that this is my own work and that all sources that I have used have been acknowledged and referenced. No part of the dissertation has been submitted for any other degree. Any views expressed in the dissertation are those of the author and are in no way represent those of the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The dissertation has not been presented to any other University for examination, either in the Republic of South Africa or overseas. Signature : Date : Supervisor : Prof. Goolam Vahed Signature : Date : 2 ABSTRACT The Inter-Race Tournament of the 1950s: Reinforcing or Undermining Race Identities This dissertation focuses on the inter-race soccer tournament which was held in Natal between 1946 and 1960 under the auspices of the Natal-Inter-Race Soccer Board. The tournament was played between Coloured, Indian and African teams chosen from players across Natal. The tournament was played at an important time in African-Indian relations in the province. This was a time of growing tension on the ground between ordinary Indians and Africans as well as political co-operation across racial lines. This thesis provides a narrative history of the tournament and, as such, makes an important contribution to the historiography of soccer in South Africa.
