Pretoria - If condom manufacturer Durex has its way, the world's sport stars will not only be winners on the field, but also between the sheets.
Durex has been appointed official supplier of condoms and lubricants for the Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, this year.
The donation of 130 000 condoms and 30 000 tubes of lubricant will cost the company R600 000, says Jo Giles of Durex, and it promises to give athletes' performance in the bedroom a boost.
The free condoms will be available at a central pharmacy in the Olympic village for the estimated 10 500 athletes and 3 000 officials from 199 countries.
Brand manager Candice Stuart said they were excited to be part of the giant sports event.
"As the official supplier of condoms and lubricants we hope the donation will help athletes improve their achievements between the sheets without being concerned about the dangers of unprotected sex."
