Supplementary information
The members of the Executive Committee are responsible for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and
the preparation and integrity of the annual financial statements and related information. The auditors are responsible
for reporting on the fair presentation of the annual financial statements. The annual financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
The members of the Executive Committee are also responsible for the league’s systems of internal financial control.
These are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements
and to adequately safeguard, verify and maintain accountability for the league assets, and to prevent and detect
misstatement and loss. Nothing has come to the attention of the members of the Executive Committee’s to indicate
that any material breakdown in the functioning of these controls, procedures and systems has occurred during the year
under review.
The annual financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis since the members of the Executive
Committee believe that the league has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for the foreseeable future.

During the year under review revenue increased from R532.3 million in the 2010 year to R560.3 million this year.
The Telkom Charity Cup competition has been concluded and the League received an amount of R15 million as per
the contract. The increase in other sponsorships was based on CPI except for the broadcast revenue which remains
constant for the duration of their contract.
Other income increased by R7.1 million, mainly due to increased revenue from tournament gate takings.
The League recorded a profit of R3.65 million after tax (2010 - a profit of R1.4 million) for the 2011 financial year. Direct
costs related to soccer increased by R48.5 million from R417 to R465.5 million.
Included in these direct costs are the increase in grants of R34.6 million, gate taking costs which increased due to the
use of world cup stadia and the increase in the distribution of gate money to clubs due to increased attendance at cup
matches.
Monthly grants paid to clubs remained constant. Distributions to clubs comprising of grants, prize money, share of
gate revenue, participation fee, and the reimbursement of sponsor tickets totalled R408.8 million (2010: R355.5 million)
Administration costs of R64.5 million, excluding costs for corporatisation included in legal expenses and consulting
fees, have increased in line with CPI (2010: R54.7 million excluding finders’ fee of R 19.2 million).
The cost of running the league, including all administrative operations and marketing expenditure, represents 14.7%
(2010: 13.7%) of turnover.
As regards to SAFA an amount of R7 million was again paid for development expenditure (2010: R7 million).
The cash flow position of the league is positive and satisfactory, but it must be bourne in mind that the income from the
granting of the broadcasting rights to Supersport International is fixed and is not linked to CPI.
The above has been achieved through the implementation and monitoring of the business’s risk management,
accounting and internal control systems approved by the League’s Executive. The principal features of the system of
internal controls include:
• Budgetary control over income and expenditure
• Regular reviews of financial management information
• Identification and management of key business and inherent risks
It is my pleasure to present to you the audited Financial Statements of the League for the period ending 31 July 2011.
Prof. R. Schloss
Chief Operations Officer
The members of the Executive Committee are responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of the
annual financial statements of the National Soccer League.
The members of the Executive Committee are required by the League’s constitution to maintain adequate accounting
records and to prepare annual financial statements for each financial year, which fairly present the state of affairs of
the League at the end of the financial year, the results of its operations and cash flows for the year. In preparing the
accompanying annual financial statements, International Financial Reporting Standards have been followed.
The annual financial statements incorporate full and responsible disclosure. The Executive Committee has reviewed
the League’s budget and cash flow forecast for the year ending 31 July 2012. On the basis of this review and in light of
the current financial position and sponsorship facilities, the Executive Committee is satisfied that the National Soccer
League is a going concern and has therefore continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual financial
statements.
The League’s external auditors, Deloitte & Touche, have audited the annual financial statements and their report
appears on pages 44 and 45. The annual financial statements and detailed statement of comprehensive income for the
year ended 31 July 2011 as set out on pages 46 to 74 have been approved by the members of the Executive Committee
on 20 October 2011 and are signed on its behalf by:
We have audited the annual financial statements of National Soccer League, which comprise the statement of financial
position as at 31 July 2011, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of
cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information,
and the members of the Executive Committee report, as set out on pages 46 to 68.
The League Executive Committee members are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as the members
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in
accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements
and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the
auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of National Soccer
League as at 31 July 2011, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards.
Other matters
Without qualifying our opinion we draw attention to the fact that the supplementary information set out on pages 69 to
74 does not form part of the annual financial statements and is presented as additional information. We have not audited
this schedule and accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.
Nature of business
The primary objective of the National Soccer League is to promote, organise, control and administer professional and
semi-professional soccer in South Africa. The National Soccer League aims to utilise its funds for investments and for
such other purposes as shall be in the interest of the League and the affiliated clubs, and the objectives for which the
National Soccer League has been established.
Financial review
The League has recorded a net profit of R3.7 million (2010: R1.4 million) for the year ended 31 July 2011. The founding
guidelines and principles, upon which the League was established, have always been for the development and support
of professional soccer in South Africa. The League increased grants to Clubs in the current year from R267.2 million
to R301.8 million (11.46% increase). The Clubs have a reciprocal responsibility to continue to enhance the brand of the
League and to be mindful of their obligations to the soccer fraternity.
The League’s revenue, which is mainly from sponsorships, has increased from R532.3 million to R560.3 million. The
Telkom Charity Cup competition has been concluded and the League received an amount of R15 million as per the
contract.
Direct costs related to soccer have increased from R417 million to R465.5 million primarily due to the payment of the
additional grant to clubs and the increase in competition gate expenses which can be attributed to the use the new world
cup stadiums.
Amounts due and payable to members of the Executive Committee are disclosed in note 21 to the financial statements.
As a further indication of the support and responsibility of the League to the broader soccer community, the Executive
Committee have approved an amount of R7 million (2010: R7 million) to the South African Football Association (SAFA)
for development expenditure.
Details of the property, plant and equipment are contained in note 10 to the annual financial statements. Property, plant
and equipment amounting to R7.85 million (2010: R7.56 million) was purchased during the current year. The significant
additions related to the acquisition of the new team registration system (Green 4) which was acquired during the current
year.
Going concern
We believe there will be sufficient funds generated from sponsorships to enable the League to continue as a going
concern.
The current sponsorship contracts were concluded just less than 5 years ago and are now due for renewal. The broadcast
negotiations with SuperSport have been successfully concluded for an additional 5 years by the Executive Committee.
In addition, the Executive Committee is in the process of renewal of sponsorships for the League. We are confident that
these negotiations will be successful.
Finance Committee
The Committee met eight times during the year to discuss accounting, auditing, internal control and other financially
related matters. It provides an independent forum through which the independent auditors report to the Executive
Committee.
Internal controls
The members of the Executive Committee are responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records and for taking
reasonable steps to safeguard the assets of the League to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. To enable
the members to meet these responsibilities, management sets standards and implements systems of internal control
aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost-effective manner. The members are not aware of any material
breakdown in internal controls during the year under review

No events of significant nature have occurred between the accounting date and the date of this report.

These financial statements are presented in South African Rand since that is the currency in which the majority
of the League’s transactions are denominated.
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, other than the standards and interpretations adopted,
the following new and revised standards and interpretations applicable to the league were in issue but not yet
effective:
The Executive Committee anticipates that all the above interpretations will be adopted in the League’s financial
statements for the future financial periods as they become effective. The adoption of these standards and
interpretations will have no material impact on the financial statements of the League in the period of initial
application.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and
in the manner required by the League’s constitution.
Land is stated at historical cost and is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment are stated at
historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated
on historical cost using the straight line basis to reduce carrying amount to the estimated residual value of the
asset, over its useful life. The following annual depreciation rates apply:
Buildings 5%
Motor vehicles 20%
Office equipment 15%
Office furniture 10%
Computer equipment and software 20% - 33,3%
The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the
sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in income.
Assets held under instalment sale agreements are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis
as owned assets or, where shorter, the terms of the relevant leases.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the League reviews the carrying values of its tangible assets to determine whether there
is an indication that those assets may be impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to
estimate the recoverable amount for an individual asset, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-
generating unit to which it belongs.
If the recoverable amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount,
the carrying amount of the asset (cash generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses
are recognised as an expense immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount under
another Standard, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease under the Standard.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit)
is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not
exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for
the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income
immediately, unless the relevant asset (or cash-generating unit) is carried at a revalued amount under another
Standard, in which case the loss is treated as a revaluation increase under that other Standard.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the League has a present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable
that this will result in an outflow of economic benefits that can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are measured at the Executive Committee’s best estimate of the expense required to settle the
obligation at reporting date.
Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises sponsorship revenue from various sponsors and the sale of broadcasting rights. Revenue
which is received in terms of contracts is recognised on an accrual basis. Contracts that are tournament-specific
or relate directly to the League season are recognised over the duration of the specific tournament or League
season as appropriate.
All other income is accounted for on an accrual basis. This includes gate revenue, income from members,
advertising board income and other miscellaneous income.
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principle outstanding and at the interest rate
applicable.
Leasing
Instalment sale agreements are classified as finance leases due to the fact that the terms of the agreement
transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the League. All other leases are classified as
operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets of the League at their fair value at the date of
acquisition. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a finance
lease obligation. Finance costs, which represent the difference between the total leasing commitments and the
fair value of the assets acquired, are charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the term of the
relevant lease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the obligations
for each accounting period.
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the
relevant lease.
The retirement benefit plan is governed by the Pension Fund Act, 1956. Contributions paid to fund obligations for
the payment of retirement benefits are charged against income in the year of payment.
In the application of the entity’s accounting policies, which are described above, the Executive Committee
members are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are
based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from
these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates
are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period
of the revision and future period if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty
at the statement of financial position date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
As described above, the League reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end
of each annual reporting period
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported
in the statement of comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or
deductible in other years and it excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The League’s liability for
current tax is calculated using rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and are accounted
for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable
temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits
will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are
not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a
business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor
the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is
no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or
the asset realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited to the profit or loss, except when it relates to items charged
or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the
League intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the League’s balance sheet when the League has
become party to contractual provisions of the instrument.
Measurement
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost, which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, these instruments are measured as set out below.
F
inancial instruments (continued)
Trade and other receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair value, and are subsequently measured
at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable
amounts are recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. The allowance
recognised is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated
future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rates computed at initial recognition.
Bank borrowings
Long-term liabilities in the form of mortgage bonds and instalment sale liabilities are initially measured at fair
value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. Any difference
between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the settlement or redemption of borrowings is recognised
over the term of the borrowings in accordance with the League’s accounting policy on borrowing costs.
Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost,
using the effective interest rate method.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flow, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and deposits
held on call with banks net of bank overdraft, all of which are available for use by the League unless otherwise
stated.

The average credit period on trade receivables at year end is 12 days. No interest is charged on outstanding trade
receivables. Management considers all trade receivables to be recoverable hence no provision for bad debts is
considered necessary.
Before accepting any new sponsorship, the league performs valuations on the potential sponsors to assess the
potential sponsor’s credit quality and defines credit limits by customer.
Included in the League’s trade and other receivable balance are debtors with a carrying amount of R2 500 211
(2010: R2 212 740) which are past due at the reporting date for which the entity has not provided for as there has

not hold any collateral over these balances.
