Sports brings SA Nation together

The World Cup 2010 being held in South Africa,
from the 11th June until the 11th July.
Sports brings the SA Nation together

The biggest sporting events command huge audiences, providing dramatic moments which bring the nation together. Sometimes we need an adversary to vanquish to turn our I and me into an us and we. The SA Nation may think of themselves as independent individualists, yet they can be transformed into enthusiastic citizens, fans, members, followers or a team victory when failure was expected. 
Chad Le Clos and his great performance which made the SA Nation roar with happiness, has aroused the connection that brings the SA Nation together. It is beautiful how sports transform SA individuals into a Nation that is supportive to its fellow citizens that are participating. These transformed individuals do not care whether its their favorite team or individual sports stars that are taking part at a big event or small event, they become part of the celebration.
Swimming sensation Chad le Clos pushed
South Africa six places up the medals.
SA Nation expressed their passion for support when SA hosted the 2010 Soccer World Cup. It was not known that SA Nation can go all out when coming to sports events; it was only known that the SA Nation can go crazy when the two well-known local teams (Kaiser Chiefs and Pirates) play together. The passion for support was also expressed when our rugby boys (SA National Rugby team) went for the 2011 rugby world cup which took place in New Zealand.
 The Nation gave them a warm good luck when they left the country. This does not only happen to big teams or big sports stars, it happens through the sports world as a whole. Sports brings the SA Nation together.

  6. There's nothing that brings people together like sports, when people are watching what they love, they turn to be united without even knowing it. The 2010 FIFA world cup proved that with sports a nation can be united.
