🚨 OILSANDS CLASSIC EVENT RULES ARE HERE! 🚨

Athletes, make sure you read through the rules before competition day so you know exactly what to expect!

General Rules
• All athletes, volunteers, judges, and representatives must treat each other with respect both online and in person. Yelling, harassment, or bullying will not be tolerated and will result in removal from the competition.
• Athletes are expected to wear their competition shirts at all times to support our sponsors.

Athlete Order
• Starting order for the first event is based on registration order (last registered goes first).
• Subsequent events follow the standard “last place goes first; first place goes last.”
• Final event order is based on overall points at that stage.
• Tie in a single event → countback to the athlete who placed lower in the preceding event (they go first).
• Overall podium tie → countback to the athlete with more higher placements.

💪 Come prepared. Compete hard. Have fun.

📅 September 12th — See you on the competition floor!

💪 Fort McMurray Strongman Crew is getting stronger every year! 💪

What started as a group of strong people coming together has continued to grow into an incredible community — and we couldn’t be more grateful for everyone who has been part of it. Year after year, we’re seeing more people step through the doors, push their limits, learn new things, and support one another.

Whether you compete, train, volunteer, help behind the scenes, cheer from the sidelines, or simply show up and contribute, you are an important part of what makes this crew so great.

Strongman is about more than lifting heavy — it’s about community, encouragement, teamwork, and helping each other become stronger. Every person brings something valuable to the table, and we truly appreciate all the time, effort, energy, and input you put into making this community what it is.

Here’s to continuing to grow, continuing to get stronger, and continuing to build something we can all be proud of. ❤️💪

Thank you, Fort McMurray Strongman Crew!
The best is yet to come. 🔥
