Almost 20 years into a democratic South Africa and transformation in sport continues to be a talking point. We ask “has enough been done?” “How do we go about it correctly?” and “who’s responsible for this?” hoping the answers will inch us closer to where we should be as a sports-loving nation.
Sporting Chance MD, Brad Bing, sat down with eNews Channel Africa’s Lester Kiewit at Sosebenza Primary School in Khayelitsha to discuss matters of transformation and nation building through sport.
Sporting Chance is the perfect company to answer all these questions as we have worked with 140 000 children throughout the past 22 years. The raw talent and flair we have seen during this time has given us the confidence to know that there are many stars in the making, if only the talent was channelled in the right direction and exposed to as many opportunities as possible. The main obstacle in the way is the same people who were responsible to transform South African sport 20 years ago are the same people who are still in positions and complain about it!! The time to talk is now over, we have no option but to act!
