It's no secret that as Australian's we love a beer alongside a healthy bit of competition. As beer lovers and beer pong aficionados, we at Crafted Beer Festival Australia believe that it's high time Beer Pong claimed its rightful place on the international stage alongside other globally cherished sports - at the Olympics in Brisbane, Australia 2032.

Beer Pong requires an extreme amount of skill, accuracy, and intense concentration. A bit like darts or pool, beer pong requires the perfect blend of aim, control, and strategy to land that ball in the cup, not to mention taking into consideration any outside interference from wind or distractions. We believe the Olympic platform will not only elevate this widely cherished game but also bridge the gap between traditional and modern sports cultures.

It's time the International Olympic Committee took note of this game of extreme skill, and gave Beer Pong to the global audience it truly deserves.

Thus, we implore the Olympic Committee to consider adding Beer Pong to their official list of sporting events and get the sport added to the 2032 Olympics hosted in Brisbane. 

At Crafted Beer Festival on the Gold Coast, Australia on Saturday 14 September 2024 and in Newcastle on Saturday 16 November 2024, we'll be selecting our best beer-drinking, pong-skilled team from our festival activities to be put forward as the first ever Official Australian Beer Pong Team. 

Tickets to Crafted Beer Festival Gold Coast are on sale now at craftedfestival.com.au. Grab yours now for your chance to be part of this history making team.

And go on, lend your support by signing our petition and get Beer Pong to Bris in 2032! You can't go wrong with pong!
