POLOKWANE – Husband and wife team William and Nannette Robinson represented Limpopo during the 2026 bodybuilding season on both provincial and national stages.

The couple competed at the Limpopo Provincial Bodybuilding Championships in August, where they both delivered outstanding performances in their respective categories.

Provincial victories

• Nannette won the ladies bikini – 35 years and older category
• William claimed first place in the men’s physique – 40 years and older category

Their provincial victories earned both athletes the opportunity to qualify and proudly represent Limpopo at the IFBB South African Championships in Cape Town last month.

Third place at nationals

The national stage brought another achievement, with both athletes placing third in their respective categories:

• Nannette: Ladies bikini – 35 years and older
• William: Men’s physique – 40 years and older

“We are incredibly proud of the opportunity to stand on the national podium among some of South Africa’s finest athletes,” Nannette says.
