The iconic SPAR Women's Challenge Tshwane is thrilled to announce the official launch of its 2025 edition, set to bring communities together on Saturday, 2 August 2025, at SuperSport Park, Centurion, starting at 14h00. This year, the beloved race embraces the empowering theme, #Twenty20Thrive, encouraging women across all walks of life to embrace their journey of growth and well-being.
Building on decades of success, the SPAR Women's Challenge Tshwane continues its commitment to making a tangible difference in the community. The launch will be marked by a significant R60,000 charity donation to various organisations dedicated to women's empowerment, ending period poverty, and combatting Gender-Based Violence – causes that align perfectly with the race's core objectives.
"For 28 years, the SPAR Women's Challenge Tshwane has been more than just a race; it's a movement that champions women, fosters community spirit, and inspires holistic well-being," says Ralph Rajagopaul, Divisional Marketing Director – SPAR North Rand & Botswana.
"Our continued involvement stems from a deep-rooted belief in the power of women and the profound impact a united community can have. This year, with our #Twenty20Thrive theme, we aim to encourage every participant to embrace their journey towards empowerment and health, and we are incredibly proud to kick off by supporting vital causes in the Tshwane community."
The 2025 edition promises an exciting race day experience. Participants will receive a new and improved moisture-management t-shirt, their entry, and the exclusive My Tshwane Challenge Magazine, packed with inspiring content on ambassadors, the #Twenty20Thrive theme, and numerous prizes to be won. And adding to the excitement, one lucky participant on race day will drive away in a brand-new Hyundai Exter!
