“Directly after World’s Strongest Man, we continue now with the Strongman Champions League,” SCL cofounder Marcel Mostert told IronMind today. Twelve athletes will compete in six events and the contest will take place in “a real bull fight arena, which is a typical spot in Spain. It will be definitely something different!," Mostert said.
The contest is set for this Saturday, October 10, in Los Barrios - Cadiz. Here is the official start list:
Juan Carlos Heredia - Spain
Andrus Murumets - Estonia
Jimmy Laureys - Belgium.
Martin Wildauer - Austria
Richard v/d Linden - Holland
Fabrice Barbier - France
Ervin Katona - Serbia
Zsolt Szabó - Hungary
Gregor Stegnar - Slovenia
La Jack - Spain
Simon Sulaiman - Syria
The events are: -
Truck Pull
Yoke Race
Car Flip
Log Lift
Farmer’s Walk
Atlas Stones
After Spain, “The next stage will be a week after, in London at Wembley Arena, with the new World Champion Zydrunas Savickas!” Mostert said. “I’m very happy we are able to do a first SCL in England, especially in London. We’re sure it will be a big success!”
