On 7 August 2018, SAnews reported that the SABC would resume broadcasting PSL (Premier Soccer League) matches on its radio platforms after intervention by Communications Minister Nomvula Mokonyane and Sport and Recreation Minister Tokozile Xasa. The Ministers met with the SABC board and executive management and also met with a PSL delegation led by Dr Irvin Khoza, Kaizer Motaung and Mato Madlala. The parties agreed to immediately commence a process to finalize issues governing the relationship between the SABC and PSL, and in the interim all soccer matches would be broadcast on SABC radio platforms according to the PSL fixtures list. The Ministers, the SABC and the PSL apologised to those affected by the decision not to broadcast the previous weekend’s matches, with live coverage to resume with the next day’s fixtures.
