These include the Afrisak, the Waboba Ball, the Zooper Ball and the Super Frisbee. Each of the games has been included in events that will test the competitors' skills in various disciplines, while bringing a light-hearted element to the competition.
The 24 bloggers will be divided into three teams representing their regions - Durban, Joburg and Cape Town - with Team Cape Town focused on defending its 2013 team title.
"The MRP Sport BlogOlympics is a one of a kind and a great way for bloggers from all over the country to meet each other and compete in a friendly but competitive environment. I love it," says Ryan Wallace of thepundits.co.za. "Last year, Team Cape Town was a little slow out of the blocks but pulled back right at the end to win. This year we will be going at it right from the start. I back us to take the title again this year."
Nikki Viljoen, Marketing Executive at MRP Sport, says, "We are thrilled to be hosting the BlogOlympics at Moses Mabhida Stadium - Durban's iconic sporting landmark. The BlogOlympics offers the bloggers the perfect platform to meet and compete and to experience the fun of the ProMaster games."
Viljoen says that the event has attracted sponsors including Tsogo Sun, Mercedes Benz Umhlanga, Moses Mabhida Stadium and The Mercury and, with individual and team BlogOlympian prizes and titles up for grabs, the event promises to be a lot of fun.
