SA Champs Prize Purse
Put R1,000 Behind South Africa's Best Bodyboarders
2026 South African Bodyboarding Championships
28 September – 2 October · Melkbos to Blouberg, Cape Town
Every Rand goes straight into the athletes’ prize purse.
No admin. No overheads. Just prize money for the riders who earned it.
THE GOAL
100 businesses. R1,000 each. One serious prize purse.
The SA Champs is the biggest event on the South African bodyboarding calendar — the one our riders train all year for. But a national title deserves more than a trophy.
That’s why the Cape Town Bodyboarding Association is building the 2026 prize purse the same way our sport has always done things: locally, and together.
One hundred local businesses. R1,000 each. A prize pool that finally matches the level of talent in the water.
WHY BUSINESSES ARE GETTING INVOLVED
💯 100% TO THE ATHLETES
Every R1,000 goes directly into the 2026 SA Champs prize purse.
Not to marquees. Not to printing. Not to administration.
Every cent is paid to the athletes who finish on the podium.

WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS
South African bodyboarding has produced world champions and some of the most talented riders in the world, yet most athletes receive little or no financial support. They pay their own entry fees, travel costs, accommodation and equipment simply for the opportunity to compete.
The 2026 South African Bodyboarding Championships brings the country’s best riders to the Melkbos–Blouberg coastline for five days of elite competition. A meaningful prize purse rewards the dedication, sacrifice and commitment it takes to stand on that podium.
By supporting the prize purse, you’re not simply sponsoring an event. You’re recognising the athletes, inspiring the next generation and helping strengthen the future of South African bodyboarding.
If your business has ever benefited from the people who live along this coastline, this is an opportunity to give something meaningful back.
