Tickets for the World Cup to be held in South Africa in 2010 will go on sale on 2 February 2009.

The announcement was made by David Will, chairman of the FIFA sub committee in charge of ticketing for WC 2010.

In an effort to beat the black market sales, more tickets will be on sale for the genuine soccer fan. Added to this FIFA will allow only four tickets per customer per seven matches.

The allocation for supporters of teams participating in World Cup games has been increased from eight to 12 percent.

The price of tickets has not yet been decided but the cheapest tickets are likely to be affordable to the South African public.
