SA is gearing itself up for the 2010 Soccer World Cup, and while there is a rush on to get stadiums built on time and roads heavy-traffic friendly, some surprises and curious situations of petty wrangling keep cropping up. As an example, Durban in Kwazulu-Natal is becoming an exceedingly well-liked'matchfill' location. Meaning that although Durban will only host 6 World Cup matches, they'll host plenty of the tourists who have tickets for matches in Johannesburg, Gauteng, where most of the matches will be played.
Durban is strategically situated on S. 's warm Indian sea shore, so even in winter, when the Cup will be held, visitors can enjoy warm, sunny weather and a dip in the sea . It's also only an hour's flight from Johannesburg, that means that visitors can fly out for their match and be back in time for supper.
Strategic matchfill locations have been identified all around the country in the hopes of lessening the stress on match hosting cities. George in the Western Cape also provides a breathtaking coastal location outside of the main fray for World Cup spectators, with a focused 1,600 rooms for 2010.
not everybody is pleased with the matchfill designation, however , as Durban's Ethekwini Municipality Mayor, Logie Naidoo, has claimed his dissatisfaction with arrangements. He makes reference to the 2010 World Cup as Gauteng's World Cup because Johannesburg will host both the opening and closing ceremonies and the bulk of the matches. According to Naidoo,'This does not seem sensible especially because Durban will be the latest place in S. in winter 2010, while the majority of the other parts of the country will be freezing.'
