The fifth edition of the ‘Stage of Champions’ Bodybuilding and Fitness Championship continues to gain positive attention from the corporate community.
Recently, a representative of Space Gym presented a sponsorship pact to representative of the July 9 event, Eybo Orford.
Orford thanked the rep for the kind gesture and stated that the sponsorship received will go towards the cash prizes that the successful athletes will receive on the championship night at the Princess Ramada.
The representative of Space Gym stated that the company has been a long standing benefactor of sports locally and is happy to be a sponsor of the fixture and wished it a successful showing.
As customary, the organizers of ‘Stage of Champions’ (SOC) are keen on bringing regional and international bodybuilding and fitness athletes to Guyana.
So far, about eight countries, inclusive of Guyana, have registered for the Championship and will stage athletes in the key bodybuilding and fitness categories: Bodybuilding, Miss Bikini, and Men’s Physique
Over the years SOC, would have attracted participating competitors from: Suriname, Barbados, Antigua and Barbuda, Anguilla, St Maarten, Grenada and Trinidad and Tobago.
Doors are set to open at 16:00hrs and tickets cost $3000.
The highly anticipated event is a collaborative effort involving the Guyana Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation and SOC. Sanctioning and approval were granted by the federation earlier in the year. Guyana is expected to be represented by several elite athletes including reigning Mr. Guyana Bodybuilding Champion Darious Ramsammy, reigning Mr. Guyana Physique Champion, Emmerson Campbell and CAC gold Medalist Julio Sinclair.
