July has been marked as Men’s Month and we have decided to shine the spotlight on the incredible male figures who continue to play their part in uplifting women’s sport in South Africa. To kick start our series, we reflect on the journey of 2009 gsport Volunteer of the Year, Lunga Ntuli, who started championing women’s sport as a teenager and helped put many current champions on the map.
