Case Study: "Try Scoring: Advancing Rugby Tourism in South Africa" South Africa, a
country with diverse cultures and remarkable landscapes, has a rich history in sports,
with rugby being one of the most celebrated. Rugby is not just a sport in South Africa;
it's part of the national identity, a symbol of unity, and a source of pride. The country's
success on the international stage, including multiple World Cup victories, has
significantly contributed to the global popularity of South African rugby. In recent years,
the South African Tourism Board has identified the potential of rugby tourism, aimed at
both domestic and international tourists. This includes not only attending rugby matches
but also exploring the rich history and culture of rugby in South Africa, meeting and
training with local teams, and even participating in amateur rugby tournaments.
However, developing a successful rugby tourism strategy requires a deep
understanding of the interests and motivations of rugby tourists. The Board needs to
provide a comprehensive rugby experience, including match viewing, interactive
experiences, cultural immersion, and more. Moreover, the board must also overcome
certain challenges. Rugby tourism could lead to over-commercialization and negatively
affect the authenticity of local rugby culture. Also, balancing the needs of international
tourists, domestic tourists, and local rugby fans is crucial. Your task as a consultant is to
assist the South African Tourism Board in developing a comprehensive rugby tourism
strategy. Understand the types of rugby tourists, their motivations, and the experiences
that could be offered to them. Identify potential challenges and propose solutions.
