Kirsten Nematandani, President of the South African Football Association, said, "To announce this new commercial relationship with Puma is a great privilege for us, and we are very happy to have secured this deal. Puma's presence in African football really speaks for itself, and they were the most desirable company for us to align ourselves with. Their technical innovation and excellence is of course important, but more so is the heritage and support they have demonstrated for this continent over a number of years. They are the perfect partner as we strive to grow the profile of football in South Africa in the years to come."
