SAFA CEO Ms Lydia Monyepao said: “The renewal of sponsors in a tough economy must be applauded in the growth of women’s football. Our recent launch of the South African Women’s Football Strategy demonstrates our focus in this area and Hollywoodbets has put their money where their mouths is in supporting women’s growth through football. Our aim is to be in the forefront in developing girls who play a role in our society into women, and through this league we have seen more players and more women leaving our shores to work as players, coaches etc. This is a testament of the value partners add into the lives of women in football. Through the SABC, over 50 matches will be seen live on SABC 1 and more on the Sport Channel, including SABC+. This has created a great platform for our players to inspire the next generation.”

“Hollywoodbets is proud to renew its partnership with SAFA, a collaboration that reflects our shared commitment to the growth and professionalisation of women’s football in South Africa, This continued partnership underscores our dedication to inspiring young girls across the country, showing them that with passion and perseverance, they too can become stars like the heroes they look up to,” said Hollywoodbets spokesperson Zandile Dlamini.
