Ellis Park




The only other stadium that I went to, when I was in South Africa, was the Ellis Park Stadium, where I saw a concert of a portuguese singer.
Ellis Park hosted the Rugby World Cup final in 1995, which was won by the country's national team, the Springboks. The large stadium was the country's most modern when it was upgraded in 1982 to accommodate almost 60,000 people. Today, the stadium hosts both football and rugby, and is also used as a venue for other large events, such as open-air concerts. It will host five group games, one second round game and one quarter-final of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, for which its capacity will be increased by 5,000 seats on the northern side only, to 65,000.

SASBO Sports Club






Other big sport facilities in Rosettenville, is the Turfontein Race Course, where my uncle used to go bet on the horses. In Johannesburg when you speak about ‘going to the races’ you’re usually referring to spending a day watching horses race at the Turffontein race track, one of the oldest horse racing venues in South Africa, built in 1887.
The laydown on the racetrack: Turffontein has a 1200m straight course that joins the round course at about the 800m mark. It’s regarded as one of the stiffest tracks in the country due to a steady climb from about the 1200m to the final turn, which means that horses racing from well off the pace actually hold every chance.
Turffontein is also set to become a night racing venue, after Newmarket Racecourse in Johannesburg was sold to local businessmen in early 2007. Since then Turffontein has undergone a major refurbishment, including the installation of floodlights, renewing the existing track side facilities and opening a sports bar.
Horse racing has a huge following in South Africa and the history of racing can be traced back to as early as 1797, whilst the first race club meeting ever recorded took place in 1802. Turffontein hosts The Summer Cup, one of the three biggest racing events in the country - the others are the J&B Met in Cape Town and the Durban July.

Rand Stadium



Right next to the Hector Norris Stadium is situated the Rand Stadium. http://www.joburg.org.za/fifaworldcup/content/view/3309/280/
It is the oldest of the major stadiums in Johannesburg, Rand Stadium was the home of all the major football finals for many years. The stadium can accommodate up to 28,000 people. Rand Stadium is the home of the third major Johannesburg football team, the Moroka Swallows. And it was from this stadium that was launched the first " Guy Fawkes", as we called the fireworks, that I saw in my life for the comemoration of 100 years of the the first settlements in the zone.

Hector Norris Park



During the weekends or holidays I remember going to the Hector Norris Stadium in LaRochelle, where we used to race against each other. Hector Norris Park is the home to Central Gauteng Track Cycling,. It is the highest cycling track in South Africa, at an altitude of 1704m above sea level. The track is concrete banked, and measures 457m. Built in the 1950's, it is actively used today, with 38 of 94 of the country's track cycling records being held there. http://www.hnptrackcycling.co.za/index.html

Miniature Roads

Back to the parks in Rosettenville. While reading a blog about Port Elizabeth ( http://portelizabethdailyphoto.blogspot.com , which I highly recommend ), I remembered going with our school to a park in Rosettenville, not sure if it was Christopherson Park or Rotunda Park) to take a drivers license for bicyvles, it was a park which had a mini traffic system with small streets, with robots, zebras, cross-roads, stops and where we had to ride around on a bicycle along with some other students and where others were the pedestrians, and where we learned the essential for riding a bicycle in traffic zones.
