It is Finally Here – 2010 Kick Off

They say music is the universal language but one only has to look around to see that sport truly transcends all cultures, gender, languages, ages and back grounds. The Soccer World Cup has brought together people from different parts of the world, united in one pursuit...victory! Taking that ‘cup’ home, and in South Africa’s case, making sure it stays home!

One thing we can thank FIFA for as businesses, other than the anticipated increase in revenue in certain industries and the exposure this tournament brings; is the intangible benefits of increased staff morale. Anticipation is in the air, staff are buoyant and excited and who can begrudge them a little fun in the work place.
























Among the soccer celebrations, Umtha is also celebrating the birthdays of two of our Umtha team members. Mother and son, born on the same day of the year; Jostina Dubase and Luxolo Dubase. Happy Birthday Jostina and Luxolo, you are both appreciated and valued at Umtha. We wish you many more!
