SA bodybuilding champs on Sunday

The South African Natural Bodybuilding Championship will be held for the first time in Grahamstown on Saturday. 

The South African Natural Bodybuilding Championship will be held for the first time in Grahamstown on Saturday. 

The event will be held at Graeme College and the athletes will be staying in Graeme College for the duration of the competition. 

Makana Natural Bodybuilding club athletes who will be representing Eastern Province at Saturday’s champs are Simphiwe Radebe (Miss Bikini), Danie September (Special Division), Johan Botha (Master 1, over 75kg ), Jarred Kobush (Light Heavy Weight, U85kg ), Ntsikelelo Xalabiwe (Middle Weight) and Lesley Sauls (Bantam Weight). 

The Grahamstown athletes were selected at the provincial championship which took place in Port Elizabeth recently. Johan Botha, a founder of the Makana Natural Bodybuilding club, will be overlooking much of the organisation of the SA champs. 

In order to compete in this event, you would have to win a local event, then win at a provincial level event to move on to the South African Championship.

The winners of this event will be able to compete on a world stage among the best from every country.  

The competition will be organised by South African Natural Bodybuilding as well as Makana Natural Bodybuilders Club.

The Makana Natural Bodybuilding Club has been running in Grahamstown for four years.

After their initial facility was broken into multiple times, the club is currently looking for new premises.

The problem that a lot of clubs like Makana Natural Bodybuilders Club have is that they are not well supported and therefore not well funded. 

The event will be held on Saturday with weigh-in on the Friday night. When considering the number of years and preparation it takes to compete at a national level, there should be many South Africans bringing the best they have got to Grahamstown.
