We proudly welcome all competitors to Clash of the Southwest Strongman/Strongwoman Competition, taking place on 21 June 2026, and wish you the very best of luck on the day.

​

A Strongman and Strongwoman competition is a strength-based sporting event designed to test an athlete’s power, endurance, and overall physical capability through a series of challenging events. Competitors perform functional strength movements such as lifting, carrying, pulling, and pressing heavy or awkward objects, including logs, stones, yokes, sleds, and farmer’s carries.

​

Unlike traditional weightlifting, strongman and strongwoman events focus on real-world strength and athleticism, often requiring competitors to move loads over distances or complete repetitions within a time limit. The competition is typically divided into weight or experience classes, making it accessible to both first-time competitors and seasoned athletes, and it celebrates strength, resilience, and community support across all levels.
