PUMA announced its new partnership with the South African Football Association on Tuesday, June 7th in Johannesburg. PUMA has become the official technical supplier to the SAFA, effective immediately and lasting beyond the next two FIFA World Cups. PUMA will provide the official playing kits for all associated South African teams, including the National ‘A’, Youth and Women’s teams. PUMA is also SAFA’s official partner in relation to replica kits, fan wear and other merchandise. The South African National A team will first wear the new PUMA kit during their next fixture scheduled for the 10th August (opponents to be confirmed).
South African captain Steven Pienaar along with Siphiwe Tshabalala, Renielwe Letsholonyane, Kagisho Dikgacoi, Darren Keet and Katlego Mphela, were on hand for the launch of the new PUMA South Africa kit.
