Regional Open Series 2020 Winners

The 2020 Regional Open Series has finished, and 6 lifters have been crowned Champion. Due to the impact of coronavirus the Series was shortened from four events, to two, with every result counting towards the final standings.

The Regional Open Series is scored in age groups, with lifters competing in either Youth (under 17), Senior (18 – 34) or Masters (35+) age groups. Within each age group, lifters are ranked on Sinclair points in the Youth and Senior age groups, and on SMF points for the Masters age groups. These points allow lifters from different bodyweight categories to be compared to give an approximate pound-for-pound rating.

The points for each lifter in each round of the Series have been added together to give a combined score, with the highest combined score in each region winning. Points only counted towards the Series event they were scored in, for example if a lifter competed in the North and South Series separately, they have one score in each Series, the points have not been combined. However, if a lifter competed in two Midlands Series, their scores have been combined to give a higher final result.

The overall best male and female in each age group have won a prize, with the Senior age group winners taking an adjusted prize of £135 each. The Masters age group winners will receive an adjusted prize of £65 each. The Youth age group winners will receive a state of the art PulseRoll vibrating foam roller each.
