WORD PLAYERS | We caught up with some of our athletes on the sidelines of the Madibaz Sport Awards where we asked them to define themselves in one word. Who says the fun and games end when the season is over?

LANGUAGE BARRIER | The Rainbow Nation has 11 official languages. While it would be wonderful for every citizen to know them all, it's an awful lot for anyone to get their tongue around. As part of our Heritage Month celebrations, we decided to have some fun by asking our Madibaz athletes to guess the meaning of a word in a language other than their own. Lost in translation much?
