Short Story
As part of the Support SA Talent Project, we have combined my love for South Africa and Road Cycling, to form the Phil Liggett Foundation, to further enable South African Athletes. The Foundations’ Governance Committee includes South African Women’s National Road and ITT Champion, Ashleigh Moolman Pasio and Men’s National Road Champion, Ryan Gibbons as well as the founders of ProTouch Sports.
Through strategic partnerships with individuals, businesses, other non-profit organisations and sponsors, the FOUNDATION aims to support South African Road Cyclists and their Teams, participating in UCI events and, those selected to represent South African at Road Cycling World Championships, Continental Championships and the African Games.
From time to time, we will introduce various campaigns to drive contributions to the Foundation, such as the Support SA Talent Virtual Road Cycling Series and stand alone events like the Knysna Cycle Tour (June 2020) and Tour Durban (July) that are currently taking place. To incentivise these donations, we are making a% of the donations received available as a prize purse for the Series.
