have reached a four year agreement on the broadcast rights of SAFA matches and events.

The SABC’s Group Chief Executive Officer Madoda Mxakwe says, “In negotiating this deal with SAFA, the SABC needed to find a balance between fulfilling its public mandate and entering into an agreement which was commercially viable. We understand the role we play in promoting sports of national interest, and inspiring the next generation of sports stars.”

“As SAFA, we are pleased to have finally come to an agreement with the public broadcaster which is in the public interest and the good of the game. After protracted negotiations, it is great that the public will once again get to watch Bafana Bafana, Banyana Banyana and other national team’s matches on SABC, in addition to various other important football development programmes, that has seen SAFA make a major impact on football on the continent” says Jordaan.

What is the price tag? Will be a cheap deal because the SABC is bankrupt, soccer supporters don't pay tv license, rugby supporters do pay their license but don't see rugby. gofigure
