The renewed agreement extends the partnership for a further four years, covering the period 2025 to 2029.
Since 2007, Sasol and WBSA have shared a common purpose to push boundaries, create opportunities where others may see limitations and enable athletes to reach levels, once thought out of reach. This renewal continues that legacy, strengthening Sasol’s commitment to the transformative power of wheelchair basketball to grow potential, champion inclusion, and inspire excellence across the entire ecosystem of the sport
“Sasol’s commitment is more than sponsorship – it is about providing opportunities for our national wheelchair basketball teams to shine,” said Nozipho Mlambo, Senior Manager: Group Brand and Sponsorships at Sasol. “This renewal reflects our shared belief in human potential and we are honoured to stand alongside these exceptional athletes as they continue to represent South Africa..”
Sasol’s support has played a critical role in enabling the national teams to compete on the global stage, including appearances at the U23 Men’s World Champions, U25 Women’s World Championships and Commonwealth Games and the African Paralympic Games.
Charles Saunders, Chief Executive Officer of Wheelchair Basketball South Africa, added,:
“Sasol’s continued commitment is a powerful endorsement of our mission and our athletes. This partnership has transformed the sport and created pathways for growth, opportunity and global competitiveness. Together, we will continue to elevate wheelchair basketball and inspire the next generation.”
Through this renewed partnership, Sasol reaffirms its role as a catalyst for change, championing diversity, enabling athletes to turn aspirations into achievements and empowering them to truly Live the Impossible.
Both Sasol and Wheelchair Basketball South Africa look forward to the next chapter with optimism, pride and a shared vision for continued growth and impact.
