As Minister of sport I would like to applaud your
enthusiasm, your willingness to support and build the image of South African
sport. Your commitment to results and your acknowledgement of achievements are
noticed by the wider public and supporters of many a sport. I would like to have
the opportunity to express my views
As a supporter the feeling in me is that in sport in
general there are 3 major entities that make up a sports team and according to
these criteria mentions and recommendations are based upon these people. Sport
Administrators and the team managers and support team are seen as the backbone
of success in sport. The players are the heart of the team and have to perform
according to the laid down plans and projections as been laid down by the
management team. The sponsors are there to feed money and power into the
game.
In all committee or management positions you will find
individuals of different professionals to tend to the day to day running of
sport in South
Africa. These people are allowed to comment or
to question different aspects of problems within the professions. 9 times out of
ten these professionals will get the opportunity to be listened to and this
could affect outcome of decisions. Was there ever the scenario that the
different supporter groups or just plain supporters being allowed in any
decision making? Although small their contribution to sport does mean something.
Imagine empty stadiums should supporters no longer support a sporting match.
We as supporters do mean something. So please don’t
ignore us and allow us to be involved in decision making as well.
