Rainbow Nation Welcomes The Rest The World

Today marks another great day in the history of South Africa – our nation will host the first soccer World Cup on African soil.

There is a great energy all around and the enthusiasm is infectious. What makes this moment so special is the unity and relationships that has been formed in the build up to the event.

Looking back on the journey I can see many of the challenges that the organisers faced but I’m writing this post to celebrate the men and women that worked hard to make this day a reality. To everyone who ignored all of the negative publicity, applied their skill and stuck (with purpose) to the plan to bring the event to the African continent – Thank you!

As South Africans we have a responsibility to maintain the momentum and build on this solid foundation, even after this great event is over. Let’s continue to keep our focus and keep showing the world the value that our rainbow nation brings to the world.
