Giving sporting gear a Second Half
Second Half Sports was built on a simple idea:
great sporting gear deserves more than one season.
In South Africa, quality equipment often sits unused — while others are locked out by high prices. We exist to close that gap by making trusted, second-hand sporting gear accessible, affordable, and safe to buy and sell.
What we do
Second Half Sports is a managed resale marketplace for pre-owned sporting equipment.
We don’t just list items — we manage the transaction end-to-end:
Sellers list their gear with us
Buyers purchase through our protected payment process
We coordinate payment, delivery, and communication
Funds are released only once delivery is confirmed
This removes the risk and friction commonly found in peer-to-peer selling.
