Whether you’re competing, watching, networking, or just there for the vibe, this event is more than just a game—it’s an immersive experience designed to unite sports enthusiasts and festival-goers alike.

Hit Poverty for a Six: Making Sport Accessible

At the heart of Joburg Sixes is the Hit Poverty For A Six (#HPFAS) initiative, which aims to provide young people from underserved communities with access to sport.

By covering costs such as entry fees, transport, meals, and kits, HPFAS gives budding athletes the opportunity to compete alongside seasoned legends and be scouted for bigger opportunities.

The initiative also includes coaching clinics led by former professional athletes and is set to expand into bursary programmes for young talent who show promise.

It’s a program with purpose, helping the next generation rise through the power of sport.

Expanding the Joburg Sixes Vision

What started as a local event is now spreading its wings across South Africa, with events running at three venues.

And the plans don’t stop there. The team behind the Joburg Sixes is eyeing global expansion, with potential events in Europe, thanks to partnerships with brands like Bodiscent UK.

The goal is to take the unique South African spirit of the event worldwide, maintaining its strong community-first ethos while reaching new audiences.

  • Corporate and social team entries are now open for registration
