Saturday 9th – Sunday 10th July
NZ Fitness Expo
ASB Showgrounds, Auckland
The inaugural NZGSA National Champs will be held at the NZ Fitness Expo in 2016. This competition will be run in conjunction with Kettlebell Athletica and will use the KETAcademy ranking table. This means that official KETAcademy rankings will be available for all competing athletes. These tables have been prepared by Honored Coach of Russia Sergey Rachinskiy, Honored Master of Sport Sergei Merculin and Master of Sport International Class Denis Vasilev. The ranking tables can be viewed here. Rankings will be awarded using the weight categories shown in these tables, however NZGSA competition weight categories will apply for competition placings.
Please note that there are no 5 min events available at this championship. Subject to entry numbers we may initiate a friendly relay event at the commencement of other events.
All competitors will receive a weekend pass to the NZ Fitness Expo with VIP out-of-hours access to allow for weigh in, warm ups etc. Competition will commence at 10am both days and be finished by 12 noon.
