This package option could be valid for up to seven games during the tournament depending on how far a team progresses. Individuals may apply for up to four tickets per match to a maximum of seven matches.
The physical tickets will be issued in April next year through specially created automatic teller machines situated around the venues in South Africa.

Bafana Bafana’s 2010 FIFA World Cup jersey has recently been unveiled. According to jersey sponsors Adidas, South African and German teams spent two years designing the jersey, which includes the South African flag on the front and an African art print on the collar. The jersey is primarily yellow, with green trim, and includes 11 threads to symbolise diversity in unity, as well as modern interpretations of traditional South African artwork.
