France selects Pezula Resort Hotel & Spa as their base for 2010


The French Football Federation has confirmed that France will make Pezula Resort Hotel & Spa in Knysna its base camp for the 2010 Football World Cup.

France, which was drawn in Group A to play South Africa, Mexico and Uruguay, will arrive at Pezula in early June.

Les Bleus, who won the competition on home soil in 1998, appear to be the favourites in their group. They will play Uruguay in Cape Town on 11 June, Mexico in Polokwane on 17 June and South Africa in Bloemfontein on 22 June.

Keith Stewart, Pezula Chairman, said that he is delighted that after months of negotiations and visits from the Federation and FIFA, and following the World Cup draw in Cape Town, Pezula is set to become the home of the French team next year.

  • Really nice to hear that to be honest. I have to say that I managed to do a few trips in Spain and I fully enjoyed the time I had there. Hope you will feel the same about that.
