Qualifications
This contest is for NOVICE athletes only. If you have competed in the Open or Masters division in any sanctioned or unsanctioned event, then you are not qualified. Our mission is to continue growing the sport of Strongman in Ohio and surrounding area. Ineligible registrants will be refunded and not able to compete. Also, if you're pressing 300, and pulling 600 from the floor, you need to be a big boy or girl and join an Open show. We're looking to put on a fun, competitive show that is directed at people new to the sport.

Event Description
Get ready for a fun day to try strongman and see how you stack up against other novice athletes. Costumes are ENCOURAGED as this falls the weekend before Halloween. We will be releasing detailed event instructions so you can show up ready to compete. Any questions at all, please send us an email. While we have signups for a show with full weight classes, we will be combining classes if needed and athletes will be notified if they're getting combined. Thank you!
