Band Of Barbells

🚨 THE PRELIMINARY SCHEDULE IS HERE! 🚨

The countdown is officially on! In just over 7 weeks, we'll be returning to where it all began for us at Ellesmere Community Centre. It's the same venue where we hosted our very first powerlifting meet back in 2019, and where we proudly hosted Junior Provincials last year. There's no better place to welcome Ontario's strongest athletes back for what will be the BIGGEST meet we've ever hosted. 💥🏆

Our preliminary schedule is now live! A & B flights have been created based on the nomination totals submitted during registration. Be sure to check out the schedule and see where you land.

⚠️ Reminder: The deadline to change your weight class or update any registration information is August 20 at 11:59 PM EST. After that, we'll be locking everything in and finalizing the schedule.

Behind the scenes, our team is already working around the clock to make this our best competition yet. From competition equipment and venue setup to livestream production, vendors, awards, and the overall athlete experience, every detail is being carefully planned to deliver a championship worthy of Ontario's best.

We're incredibly excited to welcome over 300 athletes, coaches, volunteers, and spectators for an unforgettable weekend of competition. September can't come soon enough. Let's make history together. 🔥
