“This has been a dream from the beginning,” said Devon Larratt, Canadian arm-wrestling champion and global personality in the forum of “grip” athletics. Larratt, whose YouTube program covering the world of competitive grip sports, was the special guest ambassador for the March 24 event at ESCRH.
The Prescott-Russell Secondary School Athletic Association (PRSSAA) chose Hawkesbury to be the host community for the association’s first arm-wrestling tournament. Almost 200 athletes from a dozen schools across the Prescott-Russell region competed in boys and girls junior, senior and open-class divisions during the day.
Championship results will be provided when available.
