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)

More details to follow 🙂
£15 per person

First of the Scottish 5min Triathlon series of 2016. 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.

This is the perfect opportunity to get a taste of the sport if you have never competed before, or similarly to try your hand at a different kettlebell weight or event if you are a seasoned lifter.
All are welcome!

This will be a friendly event, hopefully keeping it fun for everyone, but prizes will be awarded for the top lifters in both beginner and advanced divisions and everyone will receive a certificate detailing their achievements on the day.

Cost: £15 (covers all lifts),
£10 if attending workshop on previous day
