RudoJ, I get what you are saying. However I believe any athlete worth their salt would welcome the acknowledgement and recognition from their own country and people. From hosting an amazing World Champs in Maritzburg whether you were there or glued to the TV, this is piss poor that Greg and Daryl receive squat.

You're right in a way as well :thumbup:

But I also look at it this way. I do my job for myself alone...if I do good, I'm happy, should I get some form of recognition at work, that's great, but the intrinsic satisfaction gained from performing at my best and being successful is more than enough reward. Same for these guys.

 

Glad we all agree that its piss poor that they receive squat....a lot needs to change before our country's sport starts really begin to shine on all levels. Not being recognized for your achievements is but one of many symptoms of a sick and poorly managed sport environment.

Prize money for Sportsman of the year is R 1 million of which you have to donate 500 000 to a sporting charity, and a brand new car.

The clouds of Gupta Inc. influence hangs heavy over the South African landscape....

If there was a category for best sports venue, the soccer field that was built at Nkandla would be in the running.

Apparently, the soccer fields and tennis courts were supposed to be built 7 kays away from the compound, but somehow were relocated to a site adjacent to Nkandla.

It's a true shame that the budget for these Sports Awards is R65mil...

 

R65 million could have been used to provide:

• 86 multi-purpose sports fields at R750,000 each

• 3,250 swimming pools at R20,000 each

• 11 rugby fields at R5.5 million

• 13 soccer fields at R5 million each

• 1,625,000 soccer balls at R40 each

• Support to 541 Mass Participation, Opportunity and Access, Development and Growth (MOD) centres at R120,000 per annum each.
