(Braemar Stone and Open Stone, 14# and 28# WFD, Hammers 12# and 16#, caber, 10# Clevenger Sheaf, and WOB - spinning allowed) as well as some team-oriented challenge events for bragging rights.
NASGA/RMSA rules apply; these are Amateur events and a standard waiver will be required before competing.
The athletes will be put into teams and compete as a team and as individuals.
There are amazing prizes up for offer (sheaf’s, forks and more goodies!), as well as free food from My Fit Foods, all complimented by the great Texas crowd and hospitality. October is also warm (for your northerners!)
There is a Host hotel, The Marriott Courtyard West. It’s down the street from the games venue that is offering rooms for a reduced rate of $85/night. They will also have a free shuttle to the grounds.
This promises to be an amazing event and worth the trip. We ladies here in Texas hope you can come and join us.
