Cape Town - The eyes of the world will be firmly fixed on South Africa for the next month as the Soccer World Cup takes centre stage. This is indeed a once in a lifetime opportunity to showcase South Africa to the world - and we at Sport24.co.za are fully committed to providing our loyal readership the best editorial offering in the country.
In a first for Sport24, the website’s background will have a World Cup flavour to it, encompassing the celebratory atmosphere among South Africans during these exciting times.
There will also be a feature block on the Sport24 and News24 homepages which will include all latest news, fixtures, results and logs, expert opinion from household footballing names Peter Shilton, George Dearnaley and Mark Gleeson, video highlights, picture galleries, team information and most importantly My2010, where we are giving readers a platform to share their World Cup experiences, whether it be by means of blogs or pictures taken on their mobile phones.
Sport24 chief writer, Rob Houwing, will be taking to the road as he follows the tournament from each venue, and will report back in his daily blog.
Fans won’t be left in the dark as to the latest score or news, as all that and more will be available on our mobi-site and iPhone application. It is truly the most comprehensive web and mobile offering in South Africa.
In perhaps the most exciting initiative, if you’re stuck in the office, don’t stress, as we have the perfect solution – a LIVE MATCH CENTRE.
This application is one of the most exciting to date in South Africa and will give readers a unique experience, from up to the minute match stats as well as digital replays of every goal scored in every match played at the tournament.
The 2010 World Cup is just a week away and Sport24 is ready…
