We here at Sport24 are just so privileged to be part of something that is clearly very close to the nation’s heart.

Thank you to YOU, the Sport24 reader, for your interaction on the site. We really do appreciate your contribution in making the site the success it has become.

2018 promises to be a truly monumental year in sport as the Proteas welcome both India and Australia, the Springboks look to bounce back to some kind of form with uncertainty hanging over the future of coach Allister Coetzee, while Bafana Bafana will sadly watch the 2018 Soccer World Cup from home.

Also, the Commonwealth Games heads for the Gold Coast and the Blitzboks will be genuine World Cup contenders in mid-year.

All that plus much, MUCH more in store over the next 12 months.

Be sure to stay online with Sport24!
