Momentum’s sponsorships

“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair.”- Nelson Mandela

At Momentum, we are a proud sponsor of sports and are inspired by the feats of sportspersons. That's why we want to see them succeed. Our sports sponsorships are aligned to help our ambassadors and partners by providing them with #AdviceForSuccess and funding that will enable them to achieve their goals and thrive in their chosen fields.

Over the past 5 years, Momentum has deliberately celebrated women's victories on and off the sports field, a feat often overlooked in mainstream media.

On 12 September 2023, the 18th annual Momentum gsport Awards took place at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. The glitzy affair was an opportunity to celebrate the incredible milestones women in sports and their sponsors have achieved. It also highlighted important conversations, like the gender pay gap between men's and women's sports.

Nontokozo Madonsela, Group Chief Marketing Officer at Momentum Metropolitan, said, "We believe corporate leaders should do all they can to empower women athletes." Madonsela went on to acknowledge the enduring partnership with Kass Naidoo, the founder of gsport. "We are in a long-term relationship, Kass, and still counting and hoping that the world will recognise the elevation of women in sport. This year is confirmation of how incredible their accomplishments are."

gsport4girls, an online initiative committed to daily coverage of women's sports to bridge the gap with men's sports, was launched in August 2006. Since then, the gsport initiative has grown into a movement and the only 24/7 provider of women's sports news and stories in South Africa.

Momentum shatters the barriers that women athletes face

When you watch, the game changes. Momentum wants to take this opportunity to bring awareness to this sponsorship gap and encourage every citizen, sponsor, and institution to get behind women's sports and elevate their impact in the world of sport.
