•
On Wednesday, 31 October 2012 the SA Sport Awards Outreach Program focused on a
School Sport held at Botshelo Sport Centre in Diepsloot at SunCares Sports Academy.
•
The outreach brought together sports icons and young kids to facilitate mentoring and
coaching and was endorsed for its strong alignment with the objectives of the School
Sports Framework developed by the departments of Sport & Recreation and Basic
Education.
“We are tremendously grateful for all great work undertaken by Tsogo Sun SunCares
program alongside Walter Minaar and Malcolm Larsen of the Equina Rugby Club for
pioneering this initiative and providing the facilities necessary to nurture sporting
development in previously disadvantaged communities, while keeping with the Minister
of Sport & Recreation, Fikile Mbalula’s desire to get back to the grass roots of sports.”
– The Gauteng Lions President Kevin de Klerk -
ARRIVAL OF INTERNATIONAL TALENT- 2 NOVEMBER 2012
•
Kukkiwon, also known as World Taekwondo Headquarters, arrived in South Africa
on 2 November 2012 from Seoul, to perform the Taekwondo demonstration at the
SA Sports Awards 2012.
•
Taekwondo Demonstration by the Kukkiwon Team was a major milestone for the
sports and cultural exchange between the Republic of Korea and the Republic of
South Africa.
•
The team consisted of 20 members, led by Captain Han Kook Sun. This team is
one of three Taekwondo demonstration teams managed by Kukkiwon and indeed
the blew everybody away with their top class acrobatic Taekwondo movement.
•
The demonstration contributed to the growing prevalence and development of
Taekwondo in South Africa and has surely also triggered opportunities for sports
exchange and collaboration between South Korea and South Africa. .
ANDREW MLANGENI GOLF CHALLENGE
In the morning of Friday 2 November 2012, the Minister kick-started the Andrew
Mlangeni Golf Challenge at the Serengeti Golf Estate.
A number of development golf players were invited to play with the professional golf
players and they were later joined by recreational players, including the Sport Awards
sponsors.
The program served as a platform to showcase talent among the development players
from previously disadvantaged backgrounds and expose them to professional players
who can possibly serve their mentors and role models.
The program culminated into the Andrew Mlangeni Legends Green Jacket Dinner the
Minister announced a financial contribution of R175 000.00 towards the Soweto Golf
Development Club raised through the Golf Challenge.
The Minister indicated that this money is intended to assist the with equipment and golf
paraphernalia and further expressed confidence that in the not too distant future the
programme will have developed top golf professionals coming out of this Chapter.

NOMINEES FOR SPORT STARS OF THE YEAR 2012
In line with the Rulebook, the Sport
Star of the year was voted by the
Public through an SMS line
established solely for this purpose.
This competition saw seven Sport
Personalities nominated by the
Adjudication Panel battle it out for
the title Sport Star of Year.
In the process the SMS line was
also used to raise funds which
were later donated to charity by the
Minister as legacy of the SA Sport
Awards 2012
This SMS competition was
publicised both through print media
and Television but with enough
time, the impact could have really
been much more better!
SPORT STAR OF THE YEAR 2012
Olympic gold medallist Chad le Clos was crowned sports star of the year after the 20-year old
clinched the highest votes on the public vote line ahead of the other six nominees, (1) Hashim
Amla, (2) Caster Semenya, (3) Oscar Pistorius, (4) Siyabonga Nomvete, (5) Vernon Philander
and (6) Natalie du Toit
