For
the 6th year, we hope to welcome an “Open”
competition run under the auspices of
the Tug of War Federation of Great Britain.
Teams have come from throughout the midlands
for this event. The Tug of War Federation
of Great Britain is unique in that it
hosts competitions for mixed classes.
The Tug of War season starts in April
with training meets. It progresses to
Open Tournaments which conclude in October.
Teams will be competing for awards presented
by the Newark and Nottinghamshire Agricultural
Society and medals from the federation.
Officials and competitors are all volunteers
and some attending today are of national
level. A standard competition will have
5 weight classes. The first competition
is in the 620 kilo - 4 by 4 class i.e.
the team must consist of 4 men and 4 women.
