Why Crowdfunding?
I turn to Thundafund because as an entrepreneur I have struggled non stop for almost 3 years trying to obtain funding through government institutions and corporate social grants. Despite the lack of funding, In February this year, iFives – All Action Soccer part of iSport.com opened a five aside soccer court on a piece of land, no artificial grass, no score boards, no lighting and yet we have 10 registered paying teams participating in our first ever organized 5 aside soccer league running over 2 months (10 games) Due to the outside location, and the with winter fast approaching we now have to close our operations at 18h00 due lack of lighting infrastructure which will completely stop any immediate future business growth.

Phase 2
All the above was achieved through sheer determination, defying the odds, and ultimately changing my approach to achieving my vision for the business, taking a phase approach (phase 1, 2, 3 and final phase 4). I require your support to take iSport.com to phase 2 which will enable me to install 2 multipurpose action cricket and netball courts in an indoor environment as well as moving the existing 5 aside infrastructure to our new location. With you help, I will transform a vacant building in Atlantis into a place where family, friends, businesses and other organisations can all enjoy fun and positive recreational activities. Below please find photo illustration of iSport.com’s vision;
