We Are Nedbank - Nedbank Cup 2026

The Nedbank Cup 2026: Where every number tells a story

As South Africans, we don’t just watch soccer — we live it. In our homes, on our streets, in the dust where future stars take their first shots. And stitched onto every dream is a jersey number. Because a number is never just a number. It’s pride. It’s legacy. In soccer, numbers carry stories — and those stories unite us.

Those are the stories we are telling this Nedbank Cup.

Score your loan

When a client takes out a personal loan, the first digit of thier loan amount becomes their jersey number. If this matches the first digit of a goal scorer’s jersey number in the Nedbank Cup matches, they stand a chance to win their orginal loan amount back up to R50 000.

It’s where football meets possibility. Where everyday numbers become match-day magic.

This is the spirit of the Nedbank Cup — and the story we get to share.

The story behind the numbers

We made a digital film as a celebration of South Africa’s football heritage, a journey through the legacy carried by the numbers on players’ backs. We feature a young Jomo Sono and other legends whose jersey numbers became symbols of greatness. The story then bridges with stars like Tito Maswanganyi and Luke Baartman reflecting on how a simple number can shape destiny, fuel dreams and connect generations. Through powerful interviews, iconic moments and a montage of old and new heroes, the film reveals why jersey numbers mean so much to fans, and why they play an even bigger role in this year’s Nedbank Cup.

Spread the energy and share the digital films on your own platforms.
