Kgatlana, Dlamini and sport minister call on sponsors to back Banyana
Early this month, all Banyana players pocketed R400 000 each as they shared in CAF’s R8.2 million winning prize money.
The incentives are life-changing for the players, said Banyana star forward Thembi “Pikinini” Kgatlana and goalkeeper Andile “Sticks” Dlamini. But Sasol made life a little easier for women’s footballers in 2009 when the energy giant decided to sponsor Banyana.Betting operation Hollywoodbets came to the party and agreed to become the title sponsor of the country’s national women’s Super League.She added it was not inspiring that Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies, who were crowned African champions after winning the inaugural CAF Women’s Champions League in November last year, did not get sponsors lining up for them after their achievement.
“My message is that let us support Banyana and bring more sponsors on board. Everyone needs to be positive. We need to change our lives positively and this is the beginning.
