After the Motsepe Foundation increased its donation to the basic education department and growth of school sport to R150m, chair Patrice Motsepe said if the focus was right and resources were allocated South African football could improve.

When the partnership started in 2016, the foundation donated R70m over seven years and they increased it to R150m yesterday.

“Imagine if Bafana Bafana were in the semifinal of the World Cup? But this thing takes time,” Motsepe told the media after the conference in Sandton yesterday.“Sometimes it goes up and down. So what I would like to see is as long as you are doing the right thing over time results will come.“Schools football, if we focus on that and allocate the resources, the structures and the facilities that we should, South African football will be amongst the best, not just in Africa, but in the world.

“Part of it is school rugby and we have to do the same and if we do that I can tell you we will be proud.” There will now be a Primary Schools National football competition for Boys, a High School National football competition for Girls, and a Primary Schools National football competition for Girls, covering both boys and girls in High School and Primary School.
