SA OCR Series

Testimonials
Mat Barlett – The Grind
"As we all know it is very tough getting a new OCR event off the ground and it takes a lot of key people to make a successful first event. I want to thank Alec Avierinos and team at SA OCR for all the support you have shown us since our first event in April 2016. You and SA OCR clearly want to grow the sport by encouraging strong relationships between race organizers, athletes and all teams. The sport of OCR is growing at a rapid pace and we need a central body to coordinate all international competitions where South African OCR athletes can be proud to wear the SA OCR jersey. As a start-up event in 2016 we have not been in a position to contribute to the Athletes fund to OCR World Championships to the extent that we would like but please rest assured we are there for the team in 2017 as our event grows across South Africa. The Grind - Obstacle Course Racing is behind you all the way!!"

Testimonials
Louis Smit – OCR Athlete
"SA OCR is a great platform to learn about our sport and has definitely contributed to the growth of OCR in South Africa. I still believe there is a lot of space for improvement but so far Alec has made the right moves and built a great team around himself. I support SA OCR because it has provided me as an athlete some much needed motivation to become a better athlete and eventually reach the top level of this sport. Thanks and keep our sport growing!"

Testimonials
WarriorRic – Chief Inspirer and Brand Ambassador
"In South Africa, we have seen exponential growth in the global phenomenon that is Obstacle Course Racing. As Chief Inspirer of the largest OCR series in South Africa and ambassador of the event and their many sponsors, I am privileged to witness not only the best of the best competing for top prizes, but humbled by my intimate engagements with recreational athletes and spectators who have chosen this new fringe sport to live healthier and happier lives.

SA OCR's role in helping to grow and maintain the sport is an honorable one, especially in the midst of conventional sports that dominate our schools and professional organisations and federations. The education and support that SA OCR brings to athletes, spectators, sponsors and the community at large is vital to the future of the sport and to the ongoing support of our hardworking OCR athletes. I have no doubt that OCRWC will witness the stellar performances that will come from a unique zeal and tenacity of our elite SA athletes in action come mid October. I just wish that we could have the kind of support other nations enjoy where we send our full compliment of OCR athletes who best represent the nation of South Africa. Certainly, this is a pivotal focus area where SA OCR will make a huge impact on the sport come 2017"
