Whisper Soccer Balls

Floating Soccer Balls

Built by our deaf students from the Whisper Boat Building Academy the floating soccerballs are your ideal branding solution for any sport event. 

The 2010 World Cup is around the corner, as a participating company you want to use this unique opportunity to brand your company  to the world.

The Whisper Boat Building Academy for the deaf offers you a unique opportunity to brand your trade name as an innovative, social responsible and eco sensitive company.

The Whisper Boat Building Academy aims to enhance the life chances of Deaf disadvantaged South African students (youth). This is achieved by facilitating learning processes and skills development for Deaf students to acquire professional composite works and boat-building skills and knowledge.

 The Whisper Boat Building Academy is a section 21 non-profit organization that is financed by the sales of their products. Whisper Boats have been exported as far as Ukraine, Tanzania  and the Netherlands and renewed orders are a statement of their quality workmanship.

 For the 2010 World Cup we have developed an advanced and innovative way to promote your brand. The “2010 Floating Soccer Balls” consist of a half floating and closable soccer ball that can seat 6 to 8 people. The boats are powered by the latest German technology development on electrical motors, Torqeedo outboard motors. The battery used for these motor will be charged by solar energy on a shore station making these boats the most eco-friendly powered boats in South Africa .

 Additional features can include DVD players to play your promotional features, a beer tap, a wine cooler etc…

The “Floating Soccer Balls” built by our deaf students will be skippered by the disadvantaged youth of the Izuvunguvungu sailing trust  known as the “seed school” for the Americas’ cup project Shosholoza.

A large fleet of passenger liners and super- and mega yachts are expected at the waterfront during the world cup and boat transport and tender services will need to be arranged in order to accommodate these visitors. A huge hype and myriad of activities is expected around the waterfront so that public exposure and awareness is guaranteed. The model can of course be duplicated in Port Elizabeth and Durban.

The “Floating Soccer Balls” with your own branding on it can be your exclusivity if you order 8 balls or more.

Do not miss the perfect opportunity to profile your company  as innovative, socially responsible and eco-friendly.
