  10. BRAND POSITIONING Brand Lifecycle of the SA Sports Awards Currently the SA Sport Awards brand has gone way beyond the BRAND INTRODUCTION and BRAND DEVELOPMENT phase! It is currently in the BRAND GROWTH phase with current preoccupation being to grow the SA Sport Awards beyond just another government program to become a sport people’s asset! In 2012 the Minister reemphasized that the Awards Brand be anchored firmly among the multitudes of South Africa’s prominent Sport Personalities (athletes, administrators & reporters) and not necessarily as a government program. These elements were brought in much more profoundly into the look and feel of the Awards in order to promote collective ownership of the SA Sport Awards brand by ordinary athletes and sport personalities.
