Gsports is a South African brand that looks to raise the profile of South African women in sport and to a large extent, encourage Corporate South Africa to stand behind female athletes

Sasol sponsorship specialist, Mr Dumisani Mbokane received the award on behalf of Sasol and said, "Sasol is passionate about development, we've been sponsoring football for an average 18 years and of that, four years has gone into the upliftment of women's football in South Africa.

"The past four years has been a journey of discovery for us, it's been a fulfilling journey in that we've seen some of these girls come in as kids but later grow into role models. One of our slogans at Sasol says we're making better South Africans through our sponsorships and in doing so we have tried to instil national pride." said Mbokane.

Banyana Banyana head coach, Joseph Mkhonza was amongst the nominees for the Spar gsport Coach of the year award which was scooped up by the SA Netball national team coach, Elize Kotze.
