World's Strongest Athlete - FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT!

Sunday, 14 June 2009 22:58

This is the FINAL announcement that will be posted regarding the WSA Competition on July 18th so please read everything below carefully!

REGISTRATION DEADLINE!

Registration for this event will shut down on Monday, June 22nd at 5:00pm EST! There will be NO exceptions and NO ONE will be permitted to register the day of the event! If you want to compete, you must register online by clicking HERE!

EVENT CHANGES/CLARIFICATIONS!

• ALL events will be done on a field turf surface so bring the appropriate footwear

• Athletes will perform the hand-over-hand rope pull event from a seated position on the turf

• Before registering, please re-read the event descriptions on our RULES & REGULATIONS PAGE! Although I don’t like discouraging athletes from competing, please note that this contest isn’t for everyone! If you’re a kid that is not strong enough to flip a 600-pound tire, or support close to 400 pounds on your back, please don’t put yourself at risk by entering this contest. We will be holding this contest for many years to come; so if you think you’re a year or two away, please be honest with yourself.

• Remember that all spectators are welcome! There will be a $10 entrance fee that will be donated to the two event charities. There will also be event t-shirts for sale that will be great for young kids to have signed by our Pro athletes. All athletes will be very accessible to the general public during this event!

ORDER OF EVENTS!

We randomly picked the order of events for each division out of a hat. Here's the official order of events for each division...

Pro Athletes – Super Yoke Carry, Tire Flip, Sled Drag, Rope Pull

PRIZES!

1st Place in each division will receive an engraved Battle Axe with wall mount! Rest assured, this will be the most badass “trophy” you will ever see! We thought this was very fitting and appropriate for a competition of this magnitude!

2nd & 3rd Place in each division will receive a “gift basket” of nutritional supplements from the Nutrition Treatment Center, along with tees and training DVD’s from DeFranco’s Gym and Overtime Sports Facility.
