Entries open for Totalsports Xterra Buffelsport and Grabouw
Marie Rabie at Xterra Grabouw |
Entries for both the Buffelspoort (26 and 27 January 2013) and Grabouw (23 and 24 February 2013) legs of the TOTALSPORTS XTERRA presented by REHIDRAT® SPORT will open on Monday, 23 July 2012.
In 2012, for the first time since its inception, the TOTALSPORTS XTERRA SA Championship presented by REHIDRAT® SPORT was celebrated over a two day period with the XTERRA Lite taking place on the Saturday followed by the XTERRA Full on the Sunday.
According to Michael Meyer, Director of Stillwater Sport & Entertainment, this new format was so well received that the decision has been made to do the same at the Buffelspoort XTERRA in 2013. “We are very excited by this initiative.
By holding the XTERRA Lite and the XTERRA Full on two different days we are not only able to accept more entrants per event, but each event will get the recognition and support that it deserves. The only difference with XTERRA Bufflespoort is that the XTERRA Full will be held on the Saturday, while the XTERRA Lite will be held on the Sunday. XTERRA warriors and supporters can look forward to a weekend filled with excitement,” says Meyer.
ENTRIES ARE NOW OPEN for the TOTALSPORTS XTERRA Buffelspoort Dam (Saturday, 26 and Sunday, 27 January 2013) and TOTALSPORTS XTERRA Grabouw (Saturday, 23 and Sunday, 24 February 2013).
