Baseball in South Africa
Organizations like the Going To Bat Foundation are looking to use sport as a means to improve the lives of many South Africans. Their focus is on baseball, not only because of the incredible opportunities available for education and career, but also because the requirements are more suited to the environment. To play baseball in its most rudimentary form, all you need is a ball, a glove and a partner to play catch. To play an actual game, all you need to add is a few friends, a patch of dirt and a bat. Read more on the state of baseball in South Africa.

Cape Town is arguably the most beautiful city in the world with the iconic backdrop of Table Mountain; the breathtaking Chapman's Peak Drive, a narrow road hewn into the solid rock high above the ocean; Cape Point, the dramatic headland of the Cape Peninsula; the world renowned snow-white beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay; Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens a UNESCO World Heritage Site; Groote Schuur, the hospital where Dr. Christiaan Barnard performed the world's first heart transplant; the nearby centuries old Cape Winelands of Stellenbosch; great surfing and whale watching; and the increasingly popular and frequently airborne Great White Sharks in the "Ring of Death" off Seal Island, just a couple of miles away from the popular beaches.

Today Cape Town is one of the most multicultural cities in the world, reflecting its role as a major destination for immigrants and expatriates to South Africa. The city had an estimated population of 3.5 million.
