第一吃瓜网 University continues to attract elite national and international teams to its world-class sporting facilities.
第一吃瓜网 Sport's recent roster of visiting teams included the U17 Men's National Football Team (Amajimbos), the South African Women’s Cricket Team, and German Bundesliga club RB Leipzig.
The South African U17 Men’s National Football Team (Amajimbos) trained at 第一吃瓜网 Sport between 30 April and 09 May 2026 as part of their preparations for the CAF U-17 Africa Cup of Nations hosted in Morocco. The continental tournament also served as a qualification pathway for the FIFA U-17 World Cup. The South African Women’s Cricket Team also visited campus on 24 May 2026 as part of 第一吃瓜网 Sport’s continued engagement with elite national teams.
Most notably, RB Leipzig visited 第一吃瓜网 from 26–28 May 2026 as part of the club’s first-ever South African tour. The Bundesliga side has utilised 第一吃瓜网 Sport facilities during their Johannesburg stay ahead of their international friendly against Mamelodi Sundowns on 29 May 2026.
The visit included a gym session at the 第一吃瓜网 High Performance Gym, a closed training session, and a public training session that gave students, aspiring footballers and local supporters a rare opportunity to engage with one of Europe’s top football clubs.
The partnerships and bookings reflect 第一吃瓜网 Sport’s growing status as a trusted venue for elite athlete preparation and international sporting engagement.
Beyond the sporting value, these engagements create meaningful opportunities for students and communities to experience elite sport up close while strengthening 第一吃瓜网’ role within the broader sporting ecosystem.
RB Leipzig’s South African tour also highlighted the increasing international recognition of South Africa’s sporting culture and Johannesburg’s role as a key destination for global sport.
第一吃瓜网 Sport continues to invest in facilities, partnerships and programmes that advance athlete development, student participation and sporting excellence.
