Support WUA — Buy The Land. Build The Dream. Change Lives.

The Reality

This Is Where We Are

We are not asking for "extra." We are asking to build the foundation. These are not stock photos — this is the daily reality our boys wake up to while still showing up and giving everything.

Training with cones and a hosepipe as the boundary

No proper pitch. No proper ground. Still showing up.

Where our boys sleep

The kitchen they cook and eat from

The building they call home — roof caving in

Their bathroom

"Right now, our living conditions are not conducive for development. Our boys lack reliable transport, proper study space, and adequate training facilities. We have the talent. We need the land and the resources."

The Dream

The WRU Center —
This Is Where We're Going

With your support, we will buy suitable land in the West Rand (about 8 hectares or more) and build a complete development center on it. A place where our boys can live, study, train, and grow into the players — and the men — they are meant to be.

Bare ground — the kind of land the pitches will be built on

Now

Bare earth today — ready to be transformed

The Dream

Two full professional pitches — this is what we are building

Proper sleeping quarters — the residence we are building for our boys

A proper dining area — where our players will fuel up for greatness

A fully equipped kitchen — built to feed and develop champions

From this — to a world-class center

Indoor soccer pitch — Elite Academy indoor training facility

Indoor Soccer Pitch — year-round training, no weather excuses

Study and homework center — Elite Academy

Study & Homework Center — building futures on and off the pitch

Recreational area — pool table, foosball, TVs

Recreation Area — where boys can relax, bond, and just be kids

Residential Facility

A safe, proper home where our boys live, go to school from, and return to after training. Security, dignity, stability.

2 Full Training Pitches

Proper grass pitches to train on and host competitive games. No more cones in a yard — real football, real development.

Indoor Soccer Field

Year-round training regardless of weather. Weekend games, tournaments, and a space to build team culture indoors.

Study & Homework Center

Education matters as much as football. A quiet, dedicated space for boys to study after training — building futures on and off the pitch.

Recreation Area

A place where they can relax and be kids on weekends — not just athletes, but young men with space to breathe and belong.

We Have The Talent.
Help Us Buy The Land And Build The Dream.

Donations go to buying the land first, then to developing the WRU Center on it. We will provide full transparency with progress updates, photos and videos as the project moves forward.

Our Fundraising Objective

Why We Need R6 Million

We need a permanent home for the academy: about 8 hectares of land or more in the West Rand. We have identified several suitable properties, including land advertised for about R5.3 million. Our target is based on that price plus the costs of buying and preparing the land.

Land acquisition	R5,300,000
Legal, conveyancing and transfer costs	R200,000
Land surveying, feasibility and technical assessments	R150,000
Preliminary site preparation and planning	R200,000
Contingency allowance	R150,000
Total fundraising target	R6,000,000

Please note: these are planning estimates, not confirmed quotations. Final costs depend on the property chosen, taxes, legal requirements and professional assessments. We have not yet signed an agreement to buy any specific property. If the land costs less, is donated, or a purchase cannot go ahead, general donations will go to building the academy's facilities, as set out in our Donation Terms.
