Covering all three kettlebell sport lifts (jerk, snatch & long cycle) lifters have the opportunity to compete in 5 min sets of any or all lifts and also in singles or doubles (for jerk and long cycle) as they chose.

As the Grassroots competitions are aimed at bringing new people into the sport the medals themselves are only awarded in the “beginner” category. There are medals for female and male 1st and 2nd place in each of jerk, snatch and long cycle.

We will also be awarding a prize to the overall top placing female and male in the beginners category based on points from all three lifts combined. And everyone taking part will be awarded a certificate showing their achievement in reps and points.

For people in the “advanced” category we will just be awarding the overall male and female prize along with certificates for all.

The Grassroots League is using the definition below for splitting the beginner & advanced lifters:

-ADVANCED: Rank 1 or above by GSU/IUKL/OKSE or other relevant Girevoy Sport ranking table; or lifters ranked as “High” or above points in pentathlon.

-BEGINNERS: unranked or ranked below the level detailed above in GS or Pentathlon

Cost: £15 (covers all lifts)

£15 per person

We’ll be covering Kettlebell Sport lift techniques in all lifts (Jerk, Snatch, Long Cycle) for men/women, training sets with coaching and analysis, and running fitness training (GPP) to accompany your Kettlebell Sport training!

Its be a great afternoon for lifters to have their technique analysed and train with other lifters in a relaxed atmosphere.

For GSU members £50 for the day, or £65 for non-members.
