The second season of the Betway 12th Man programme officially comes to a close on Wednesday, 27 November celebrating the growth and transformation of the 12 sporting legends who have partnered with Betway.
After six months of in-depth engagement with a wide variety of sports and business experts, the 12 participants are set to graduate from the programme and officially step into a new life challenge – readily equipped with all the essential tools and knowledge to step into the dynamic world of business and entrepreneurship.
