Soccer loving South Africans are in for a big reward, and this is all thanks to a new innovative competition launched by SuperSportBet, the official betting partner of both Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates.
SuperSportBet, an online gaming and betting platform, which will see both Chiefs and Pirates fans play online slot games, Amakhosi Cash and Bucs Gold Rush, was launched by the trusted SuperSport brand, on Tuesday during a media engagement at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg.
The launched gathered executives from SuperSport, members of the media, former players and supporters of both Chiefs and Pirates for this exciting announcement.
SuperSportBet’s Sta’ Playa, a bold new campaign that taps into the iconic rivalry between South Africa’s two biggest football clubs, announced an opportunity that could see a fan win a brand-new house in Soweto, the symbolic home of South African football culture.
Pirates and Chiefs were established in Soweto, and their rivalry over the years, the Soweto Derby, has grown to be the ultimate “Country Divider” and a great conversation starter.
All the details on the competition and other great prizes to be won will be launched on 28 April, on www.superSportbet.co.za.
Sta’ Playa is aimed for fans and each spin is expected to unlock a chance to win epic rewards, from matchday tickets and behind-the-scenes player access and of course the life-changing grand prize, the brand-new house.
With the Soweto Derby rooted in the heart of Soweto, home to the iconic Soweto giants, happening on 3 May at FNB stadium, and making a special stop at Moses Mabhida on 10 May for the Nedbank Cup Final, Sta’ Playa is expected to give fans a chance to back their team and get rewarded for their loyalty.
SuperSportBet Managing Director Grant Greeff said the fierce rivalry between the two clubs made the partnership especially powerful.
“With the launch of Sta’ Playa, we wanted to take things to the next level. So, we went back to the drawing board to create something unforgettable — including a life-changing grand prize: a brand-new house. It’s all about giving fans a bold new way to stay connected to the teams they love.”
South Africa will be at a standstill two weekends in a row as Chiefs host Pirates on the 3rd of May for the Betway Premiership at the FNB Stadium and again on the 10th of May, this time for the Nedbank Cup Final at the iconic Moses Mabhida Stadium.
