"I am thrilled to witness brands like Powerade embodying the spirit of giving back, recognizing the importance of community development through sports, exemplifying the core principles of service delivery and the 'Batho Pele' principle.
"We encourage more brands
to follow suit and partner with the city," stated MMC of Community
Development in the City of Johannesburg, Cllr. Magwentshu, in a press release from Powerade, who shared the history behind Orlando West Park:
