@ZeldalaGrangeSA thank you for your message to our ambassadors. ‘It’s now in your hands’ - words that Former President Nelson shared in his speech 90 birthday speech. @Laureus_sa

“Reflecting on 25 years since the foundation’s creation, inspired by Nelson Mandela’s words, it’s incredible to see how far we’ve come. 300+ projects in 25 countries. The South African foundation shines as a key part of this journey. Thank you to all who make this possible!"

Huge thanks to Sean Fitzpatrick for his leadership in driving our strategy and mobilising ambassadors, Academy members and athletes. Their advocacy, visits and support help create real impact, not just through fundraising but by pushing for policy change.

Some inspiration … "Sport isn't just a game. It is a bridge. As the example … In the midst of conflict, young athletes in @peaceplayers programs keep playing, proving that unity can thrive where politics divide. 25 years on, the mission remains #LaureusSA

People frequently ask me about the 10km event I participated in at the Olympic Games. Completing a 10km swim can take around 2 hours, depending on the weather and water conditions, though it can vary.

When 50 girls dive on “take your marks,” the pontoon shifts significantly. I used to rely on sitting for the stability I needed to prevent a false start before the gun goes off. #Paris2024 #Olympics #DreamComeTrue #Deloitte #Paralympics #TheFirstEffect #OpenWater

I would sit and splash myself with the water, feeling the temperature, resting my muscles for that last time before the gruelling, 2-hour race. Here’s an interesting fact: the start pontoon is typically makeshift, often made from plastic or something more solid, and it’s movable
