SA Sports Illustrated appoints new editor

Touchline Media has appointed Steve Smith as the new Editor of SA Sports Illustrated. Steve comes to the SA Sports Illustrated team from Tiscali where he was employed as Editor-in-Chief.

No stranger to the sporting environment, Steve was a professional tennis coach in his youth, but currently rates running, football, mountain biking and jamming on his guitar as his favourite pursuits. He has a keen eye to what's stylish and cool, brings a calm yet confident disposition to his dealings with people and is very proud to have landed this high-profile position.

Steve has a wealth of experience in sports, lifestyle and motoring journalism, which will help him make a profound impact on the magazine going forward. He is undoubtedly the 'go-to guy' on all these topics and is sure to keep SA Sports Illustrated readers at the cutting edge of in-depth analysis on South African sport.
