South African Tourism has just announced a new competition to get the young people of America to get into the spirit of the game, and get dancing the Diski.

South Africa is hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup (TM) and young soccer fans can stand to win a trip to South Africa - and the chance to play in one of the new World Cup stadiums.

South African Tourism has partnered with US Youth Soccer (the largest youth sports organization in the United States) and World Cup sponsor, Coca-Cola, to spread soccer awareness via a fun Web video contest - which will bring one American youth soccer team to South Africa.

The Diski dance is a new dance based on soccer moves that has been specially created by South Africa for the 2010 World Cup to express the country's unique way of playing soccer. It's rhythmic, showy, energetic, and above all, lots of fun.

The fabulous grand prize of the Web video contest is a trip to South
Africa for one entire American youth soccer team - parents and coach included - for 8 days/7 nights.

The trip includes visits to Johannesburg and Cape Town, a game park and a match against a South African youth soccer team, in one of the World Cup stadiums.

Any interested young American soccer teams need to learn the Diski dance moves, feel the rhythm of South Africa, and upload their video at www.southafrica.net/dance.

The contest runs until Sunday, December 13, 2009.

Info:
Teams may have a minimum of 10 members and a maximum of 15 members, aged between 8 and 14, and must be affiliated with organised leagues or organisations Soccer National League, Metro Youth Soccer League and similar organizations.

The winning youth soccer team will be announced in mid-January 2010.
