Make use of the massive stadium embankments to create giant slipways and slopes for the BMX’s and the skateboarding.

The only way to do this is to invest in the infrastructure and human resources needed to ensure there is an average of one club for every four junior and high schools in the townships and in the same area. So they will not need bursaries to play rugby or taxis for transport.
