Strategic Transformation Plan two years' in the making
February 24, 2015
The Strategic Transformation Plan (STP) of the South African Rugby Union (SARU) was the culmination of two years' hard work and consultation, Mr Oregan Hoskins, president of the South African Rugby Union said on Tuesday.
The wide-ranging plan - which was approved by the SARU General Council in December - would provide a road map for rugby for the next five years, he said.
"The development of this Plan was essential for South African rugby to maintain its place as a leading South African sports federation. It has been the No 1 priority for me since I assumed the presidency and for the Executive Council," said Mr Hoskins.
"We started this new approach in October 2012 with a Transformation Indaba, since when we have worked very hard and with great determination to deliver a Plan to guide our sport all the way to the Rugby World Cup in Japan in 2019.
