Sport: South Africa to bridge wage between men and women

South Africa’s Women’s Football team, Bayana Bayana will for the first time earn the same amount of bonuses as the men’s team, when they take part in the FIFA world cup in June.

The boss of the country’s football association, Danny Jordan made the announcement while speaking with newsmen.

Jordan said the move will go a long way towards closing the pay gap between the men and women footballers in the country.

The men’s team have always earned more in bonuses during qualifiers or at major tournaments while their Bayana counterparts received considerably less.
