| Rob_Bush | A notice to all competitors... | 07-05-2010 @ 16:24 | |
Member 1323, 449 posts SQ 270, BP 210, DL 320800.0 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq | Just a quick reminder that all competitors are required to arrive at the venue at 10:00am - 1 hour prior to the comp's opening. In addition to this, all competitors will have use of the changing and shower facilities on the day. As we are just 9 days away from the comp, we are assuming that all competitors will be happy to pay the £20 entry fee on the day rather than send any last-minute cheques in the post. Regrettably, Richie Allen and I are not eccentric millionaires and due to the lack of affluent sponsorship in South Wales this year, we have had to pay for the printing of t-shirts, general publicity, trophies and the transportation costs associated with moving kit to and from the venue out of our own pockets. This is aside from the time we have dedicated to making this comp the success we sincerely hope it will be. Thank you all and we wish all competitors the very best of luck. Me, I'm looking to make it into the top 13!!! | ||

Member 1323, 449 posts SQ 270, BP 210, DL 320800.0 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq | The competitor list now looks like this with Jamie Richards withdrawing due to a biceps tear. We are now looking at 12 competitors this year but if anyone knows of any competitor that is listed that will not be competing, please can you post information on this thread. Richie Allen - PAID Dale Norris Richard Smith Ryan Forshaw Ross Stone - PAID Jamie Redwood Owen Lewis Simon Johnston Shane Evans Larwence Mitchell Rob Bush - PAID Richard Lewis If competitors enter this postcode - CF64 1SB - into google maps or Sat Navs they will arrive at a pub called the Oyster Catcher that is at Penarth Marina. Once you are there, you can't go too far wrong as the comp is no more than 2 minutes drive from that destination. There will be a small sign stuck here and there to point you in the right direction. | ||

It's a lot further than that Simon. Just make sure you leave about 30 min for travel time. The best way is to get back on the M4 then off at junction 33 for Barry/Penarth. | ||

Member 1323, 449 posts SQ 270, BP 210, DL 320800.0 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq | Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have had to substitute the Car Deadlift in Event 1 for a Frame Deadlift. We are very sorry about this but it has been taken out of our hands on this particular occasion. The same rules will apply so there are no fundamental changes. The pick-up is also at the same height. The weight will be fixed at 400kg so it will be approximately the same as the car would have been. As stated above, the same rules apply so straps are allowed but no suits. The lifter will only lift on instruction by the head referee and will have to be clearly locked out before the rep is acknowledged. Again, we are very sorry for the event change but those who have been training using a frame/car frame will not have wasted their valuable time and effort as the movement itself is almost identical in every way. Many thanks | ||
