It's that time of the year again, when four of South Africa's hottest rising soccer stars are whisked away to an exotic location with four of South Africa's sexiest soccer babes for the 88-page Absa Kick Off SoccerBabes 2005 annual supplement, bagged with the 5 December issue of Kick Off and on sale from 21 November.
Set amongst the mystical pyramids beside the calming waters of the Nile near Cairo, the lavish pics sport Anchen Petersen, Nompilo Gwala, Face of Africa Winner and Finalist, Kaone Kario and Greatmore Chatya, with rising soccer stars Shakes Ngwenya, Scara Ngobese, Phumudzo Manenzhe and Thando Mngomeni.
The Absa Cup is sponsored by the bank, so claiming sponsorship for the special edition made sense. Absa Head of Sponsorship Tebogo Madibo commented: "Absa's involvement in soccer extends beyond the adrenalin, the skill and passion on the field during Absa Cup. Absa Kick Off SoccerBabes 2005 introduces readers and our clientele to the panache, the elegance and finesse of soccer as a lifestyle, and of our brand. This is a proud association for us, and demonstrates the inimitable prestige attached to our investment and participation in South African soccer."
Highlights, behind the scenes footage and more of the shoot in Egypt will be broadcast on SABC 1 at 14h30 on Saturday, 26 November just before the Pirates vs. Sundowns game.
