The Olympics is considered the pinnacle of global hockey competitions, and just 12 women’s international hockey sides will be able to compete for the honour of bringing home the prestigious gold medals against countries such as France, Australia, the Netherlands and China.
Moti has committed R30 million in funding since MotiMoves’ launch in May for use over 12 months.
A group to watch, the MotiMoves Protea Women’s Hockey team is currently ranked 21st in the world. They boast a phenomenal track record on the African and international stage and are considered the favourites in the current tournament.
‘The MotiMoves sponsorship is a breath of fresh air for our team and I am very grateful for Zunaid Moti’s generosity and support,’ said Head Coach Giles Bonnet.
‘After months of hard work, our team is excited to be representing South Africa, and with MotiMoves behind us, we’re ready to win the Africa Cup and make history.’
