Game On with Thabiso

Sports 2023

ll things sports from Cricket, Soccer, Rugby, Tennis, Boxing, Athletics, forms part of the content offering on Game On. Getting role players that drive the game like coaches and players instead of getting journalists to give their views. Former players are considered first before we turn to in-house reporters for big talking points from the weekend. There are exceptions on stories that break on SABC Sport and we will give them first priority. Topics like the state of school football and where was the ball dropped because it used to be the bedrock for early talent identification in the past are prioritized.
