South Africa has unveiled their Confederations Cup uniform for the 2009 tournament which they will host. The country will see this tournament as preparation for their staging of the World Cup in 2010.

South Africa Confederations Cup Jersey

The South Africa Confederations Cup jersey combines two shades of green with yellow details around the side. The Adidas logo is yellow and positioned centrally whilst the three traditional stripes on the shoulder are of the same color. The national badge is placed in the top left of the jersey whilst the Confederations cup badge is opposite in the top right. All in all, the new uniform sticks with the traditional colors of South Africa and the pattern containing the two shades of green really brings the jersey to life.

The South African national team have been drawn in group A of the Confederations Cup alongside European Champions Spain, New Zealand and Iraq. The country is currently ranked as 72nd in the FIFA ranking and has never been beyond the group stages in the World Cup. South Africa’s most notable achievement is their African Nations triumph in 1996.
