The Toronto Pro Supershow should be a big event. Mike Roy has been building up the expectations of the event's organizers and we want to ensure there is a strong turnout. A few details: There are strict time constraints surrounding the armwrestling tournament. The Expo opens at 9am on Saturday and closes at 6pm. This means that the tournament must be completely wrapped up and all awards must be given out by no later than 6pm. This is the schedule we will be attempting to follow as much as possible: - Kids Tournament - starts at 10am and wrapped up by 11am (including awards)
- Amateur Tournament - starts at 11am and wrapped up by 2pm (including awards)
- Pro Tournament - starts at 2pm and wrapped up by 5:30pm (including awards)
Registrations can be done on the Friday evening or on the Saturday morning. Two tables will be run non-stop throughout the day. It is very important to arrive on time -- plan to arrive a bit early to avoid missing weigh-ins. The tournament registration fee will include entrance to the Expo ($10 value). There will be a place for athletes to register prior to entering the Expo. I am not running this event, but am helping Mike Roy to get the word out. If you have specific questions, please let me know and I'll try to get answers.

Similar to the MGC. Competitors will self-select which division to pull.

If you go to the Toronto Pro Supershow website they are giving out unlimited free posters for the event. It only takes 2 days to get to you so hang them up at work, at the bar etc. etc. Let's get the word out!!!!! I have yet to see anything in the Toronto Sun or anywhere else from a public stand point so let's do our part for Armwrestling. I've heard from people out-of-province who will be making this event & others who haven't even heard of it. It would be awesome if we could make this an annual event to attract others from around the world much like the Arnolds in Ohio so let's show them why Ontario is the Mecca for armwrestling in Canada!!!!!!!!!

no time for super-matches at the Toronto tournament?

Because of the time constraints, I think it would be too risky.
