Safety measures have been an issue ever since the 2010 Soccer Finals was awarded to South Africa. Even though the recent Confederations Cup in South Africa was a success as far as safety and safety measures are concerned, recent crowd control issues in other African countries have sparked concern when it comes to the situation in South Africa. Organizers of the tournament are hopeful that the same would not take place in the host country.
Safety Measures put in place for 2010 FIFA World Cup
The Local Organizing Committee (LOC), together with the relevant law enforcement agencies, has put solid safety measures in place to ensure the safety of not only the players and officials, both inside and outside the match venues, but also the thousands of spectators and media officials attending the tournament. The Local Organizing Committee, headed by Danny Jordaan, maintains that all concerned parties will be safe during the duration of the tournament. It is important that the Local Organizing Committee and law enforcement agencies do not only focus on implementing safety measures at stadiums, but general safety as well. It is expected that around 41 000 police personnel will be deployed for the 2010 Soccer Finals alone, with an average of 7000 police officers at each game to be played.
Safety Measures to ensure a Safe and Incident Free 2010 FIFA World Cup
One of the new safety measures put in place is to ask fans to arrive early for matches. For this reason, the gates will open three hours prior to kickoff. If fans arrive early on match day, they can go through the various security checks and thus get into the stadiums safely. Representatives of all competing Soccer Finals nations will also be briefed on the various safety measures. Only the best safety practices and safety measures will be adopted in order to ensure a safe and incident free 2010 Soccer Finals. A whole lot of issues, including crowd control issues and rowdy fans, will test the different safety measures to be put in place.
