Soccer Hottie Shaun Haschick on "Keeping it GREEN in the MAN-CAVE"

The 2010 Soccer World cup in South Africa kicks off in just a few months and we're saying "Roll on the Fifa fever!!" I caught up with one of SA's soccer player's Shaun Haschick of Moroko Swallows to get an inside scoop on whether those soccer boots where made for greening! Heres what our Sporty Eco- hottie had to say... 

1) What does being "Green" mean to you?

To me being "Green" means being conscience about the environment and the impact that your actions will have in ensuring its preservation for future generations.

2) What are some of the things your doing to be more eco-conscious? Any advice for keeping it green in the MAN-CAVE (bachelor pad)??

I try focus on the little things because if everyone did so it would make a huge difference collectively. Tasks such as simple recycling, switching off lights or appliances that are not in use to save energy, turning off taps to save water instead of letting them run while busy with other things. Like I said, its the little things that count more than you think.

I couldnt agree more!

3) How important is living a healthy, balanced lifestyle to you?
As a professional athlete its very important to me to live a healthy well balanced lifestyle as my career depends on it. Eating well and keeping the body well hydrated is very important, though its equally important to find balance in all aspects such as mentally and spiritually.

4) With the Soccer world cup only months away (YAY!!), What does this mean for South Africa?
The effects of the World Cup 2010 will be felt long after the tournament has ended. It will create sustainable employment and improved infrastructure for the citizens of this wonderful country that otherwise might not have happened. The competition will last for a month, but the benefits will be felt for decades to come.

5) What qualities do you look for in an Eco-babe?
 I look for a beautiful smile and an attitude of positivity. 

Did you hear that ladies...:)

6) We’re on the verge of starting our new campaign "SA’s UNDRESS UNION". Don’t be scared, we’d like you to sign our petition …to FUR-get or Regret. The million dollar ‘Q’... Would you rather go naked than wear fur?

Naked for sure. Ive see too many incidents on TV showing senseless cruelty to animals. The annual Seal hunt in Canada and surrounding countries stands out for me as something particular sad after seeing the brutality that goes along with it.

7) And lastly, what’s your favourite shoe brand (or soccer boot for that matter). We’re all about the shoes☺

When it comes to my shoes, comfort is way more important to me than brand and price, but I don't mind paying for it. I like my Puma and Adidas sneakers while for football... Adidas is my choice.

Thanks Shaun! Keep making us proud on the field!
