Australia’s most famous football club the Collingwood Magpies, are proud partners of the Western Cape Province. Collingwood made its first visit to South Africa in January 2008 conducting its annual high altitude training camp in Potchefstroom in the North West Province, a location famed as a base for International athletes due to its higher altitude and champagne weather. The Club is tentatively scheduled to play its first “home” game in Capetown at spectacular Newlands Cricket Ground in February 2009 as the AFL seeks to expand the game internationally.
