ou Keeping yp in the loo Dreaming Big In Monaco

It was with great pride that the LIV Village (Lungisisa Indlela Village) U12 rugby team last month stepped into the Stade Louis Stadium – home of AS Monaco Football Club – to play their first game in the Monaco Sainte Devote Sevens Tournament. Earlier this year the team had been invited to participate in this prestigious tournament. With no funds available, Unitrade Management Services as well as long-term

partners, LIV Clean, sponsored the trip, while Corogains Sports ensured the team looked the part by sponsoring their jerseys. “Our boys were treated like royalty everywhere they went,” said LIV CEO Chester Koyana, who, together with coach Menzi Ngidi and LIV founder, Tich Smith, accompanied the boys on the trip. Their first match in the tournament was their second ever official match, and regardless of the results, the boys showed incredible maturity and sportsmanship. One of the highlights of the week for the boys was meeting Princess Charlene, who posed in a team photo with the boys. LIV exists to raise future leaders of our nation and aims to provide opportunities for all of the children in their care to shine.

Fancy A Glass Of Seaward? Spier has spent the last two years developing a unique duo of wines that pay homage to the benefits of growing grapes along the coast. The aptly titled Seaward range is comprised of a sophisticated, lightlywooded Chardonnay and a layered, spicy Shiraz. The Spier Seaward Chardonnay 2018: Made with grapes sourced from the Tygerberg Hills, this lightly-wooded wine has aromas of ruby grapefruit, mango, citrus with undertones of raw almonds. The creamy palate offers fresh citrus and nectarine notes with well-integrated vanilla on the finish. Enjoy with pork chops, roast chicken, creamy mushroom pasta – and, of course, seafood. The Spier Seaward Shiraz 2017: High-quality Shiraz grapes were selected from Darling, Durbanville and the southern side of Stellenbosch for this wine, which has beautifully layered aromas of mulberry, violets and plum supported by infused allspice. Enjoy with your favourite cut of grilled red meat and root vegetables or a vegetarian moussaka. The Seaward range will be available in stores from July.
