Re. Female Proteas - South Africa, and the rest of the world, need LESS professional sport, not more.
Support for Sport Fanaticism/Addiction, all over the world, has created the most horrendous examples of inequality of "reward for 'work' ".   Ordinary people in most developed, and developing countries have become Entertainment Junkies.  Not a week goes by without there being some sport tournament on somewhere in the world, and Sport bodies like FIFA, ICC, NBA, IRF, IOC, IPL etc. are simply basking in the sunshine of this madness.  The fees  paid to sport  'superstars', and sport managers 'boggles the mind'.

"The firms featured in Forbes’ 2016 ranking of the World's Most Valuable Sports Agencies have negotiated a collective $40 billion in current professional athlete contracts, netting themselves more than $1.95 billion in commissions."

And South Africa, where millions of ordinary citizens, go to bed at night without having anything to eat,
is also on the bandwagon !
