Sussex Strongest
Man Competition 12/7/2003
John Bowles
Promoter/Judge l-r Adam
Townsend 2nd, Ollie Thompson 1st, Paul Carter 3rd. A great little
show put on by John Bowles and all at Physiques gym at Bexhill on Sea. 1st Ollie Thompson
- improving all the time, the best the south has to offer 2nd Adam
Townsend - solid performance but seems to lack the all out to win
aggressiveness he used to have (I dont think he has been the same since close
friend and training partner Marc Illiffe died last year) 3rd - Paul
Carter - new found fitness and stamina improving his overall package 4th -
bodybuilder Jay Hughes very impressive for a 19 year old but worrying site of
him collapsing after every event and having to be carried off. 5th - Andy Mavin
- new slimmer lighter Andy fit but lacking power he used to have 6th - Richard
Giles - new prospect Richard having a bit of a low patch at the moment but
still good effort 7th - Phil
Wright - old codger still having a go! 8th - Mick Jones
- immensely strong deadlifter needs a bit more experience on the events 9th first timer
(name?) very strong but no technique as yet. Phil

Pat Smith 1st, Paul Wood 3rd , front John Bowles ref Another great
little show put on by a first time promoter Colin Anderson. On the message

Strongman Challenge in Dover. The Competitors were all excellent, the
supporters were fantastic, and the tireless work of Jon Bowles, Nick Swain
(hope I spelled that right), and everyone else who stepped in and lend a hand

mate, we all had a great time and it was a great competitive show! 1st Pat Smith (61.5
pts) – very
impressive performance from Pat, good all rounder 2nd Gary Meale (59
pts) – big tall
raw boned with big hands. Great potential for a strongman needs more
training, one to watch. 3rd Paul Wood (57.5
pts) – much

focussed 4th Jay Hughes (53.5

Southern England Qualifiers
2003
L – R Phil Wright Promoter, Carl Waitoa 3rd,
Steve McNeill 2nd, Oli
Thompson 1st Southern Heat Qualifiers Oli Thompson
Back row L – R Carl Waitoa 3rd, Steve McNeill 2nd,
Ollie Thompson 1st, Johnny Kiss 6th, Dean Edwards 5th,
Front Row L – R Paul Carter 7th, Mick Horwood 8th,
Richard Giles 4th. Good hard fought show dominated by Oli Thompson.
Last years Kent’s Strongest Man.
Newcomer Carl Waitoa very strong but needs event training to reach
full potential (12 reps in the 250kg d/l) Much improved performances from Steve NcNeill and
Dean Edwards both looking good. Richard Giles huge jump in class nearly
scuppered by only scraping 1 rep in the deadlift, almost out as it was a
compulsory lift! Johnny Kiss looking ahead and just did enough to
qualify. Giant novice Paul Carter’s power got him through. Good competitive show but I think the lads are going
to find it harder going at the England’s in 2 weeks. Good luck boys! |

Townsend 3rd Spencer
Hyland Steve Brooks promoter Competitors Spencer Hyland, Bill
Pittuck, Ade Rollinson Adam Townsend, Andy
Mavin, Sweetspot Simon Flint, Mal Kaye,
Simon Morton, Stuart Murray, Darren Sadler, Johnny Kiss A monster heavy show
put on by Steve Brookes and Rob Dixon. The heaviest I’ve ever seen and some
said too heavy for that late in the season but it was a proper Strongman
Show! 125kg Axel lifts, 145kg!! Square sectioned farmers plus 330kg tyre
flip, 400kg!! Basque circle, 5 stones 110kg – 165kg! Axe Hold. Big Ade
Rollinson showing that he is World Class by winning the overall contest with his
easy completion of the Stones. Big Ade does not seem to stand out in any one
event (except the stones) but ends up winning! Adam
Townsend goes from strength to strength. After seeing him win Allhallows
2002 he impressed me yet again at this heavy show narrowly missing winning
it. He really is a great all rounder who I tip to be in top 3 of this years
BSM. Spencer
Hyland
the ex boxer who is probably one of the strongest men on the scene but who
always seemed to lack event experience. He obviously has been getting some
event training because now he is applying that huge power more technically he
is always going to be up there. Another good solid
performance from Bill Pittuck. Johnny
Kiss
still improving and showing more gutsy aggression and technique now I’ve
heard a rumour that he’s training with the Pittuck/Townsend/Illiffe camp. Simon
Morton
surprised me, what a monster! Started with 7 reps of the axel press which was
only beaten by one athlete who got 8!, really impressive. Darren
Sadler
“The Might Atom!” looks small up against the other monsters but WOW!
Astonishing! So much power and technique, flew around with the 400kg Basque
circle 3 times I think! Stuart
Murray looked
very strong and back from his injury nightmares. Mal Kaye looked in great shape
and is preparing for this years BSM (his last unfortunately) which is being
held in his home town of Scarborough. Simon Flint (Big Scarey F****r)
looked massive and again bursting with power but lacking event training,
definitely one to watch out for in the next few years. The London boys Andy
Mavin
and Richard “Sweetspot” Giles found the going a bit
too heavy and returned to training with a new found urgency the following
day! Good World Class
Contest from Steve and Rob which was compered by 3 times British Strongest
Man, Irelands Strongest Man and Worlds Strongest Man competitor Big Glenn
Ross and Rob Dixon. winner Big Ade with
promoters Rob Dixon and Steve Brooks Awaiting full results
and scores from Steve or Rob! Phil |

Wright Promoter, front Beauty Queens!
Quite a hectic show with about 40
in the Novice and 20 in the Open but we got through it ok! A really consistent performance
from Adam Townsend won the Open with Mick Gosling looking very impressive in
2nd place. Alex Hunter was back to his old self with a gutsy
performance after a slightly grey patch earlier in the year due to personal
problems. Russ Bradley showed flashes of his
old self in finishing the grueling medley. Lee Bowers very powerful but
dreadful performance in the Skip Hold lost him too many points to catch up.
Frazer Tranters man of the match was Ollie Thompson who once again showed
great improvement and proved that his Kent’s Strongest Man win was no one
off. Lorry pull was very heavy and
started in a bit of a dip with mainly only the big bodyweight boys budging
it. 135kg farmers suitcases were handled very well by most of the competitors
with Mick Gosling going past the 40m finish line and continuing till about
64m which beat Frazers previous record of 54m. Johnnie Kiss again gutsy as they
come. Novice
show dominated by Ricky Bartholomew and John Bowles with Mick Horwood.
Skip hold proved a huge success
with athletes, made heavier for the Open by adding beer barrels.
Truck pull started in a dip very
hard pull.

tyres caught a lot out!

18th August 2002 at Lockmeadow Leisure Complex
Maidstone Results!
Power Team Challenge 2002 winning Team Mick Gosling
& Steve Brooks
Another top quality contest by a new promoter Alex
Hunter. This team show was very gruelling with some of the competitors really
feeling the effects of 3 shows in 3 weeks! Mick Gosling and Steve Brooks won 5 out of the 6
events and looked every bit the quality they are. Steve a UK Strongest Man
winner and Mick a WSM competitor this year.
New boy Ollie Thompson proved his Kents Strongest Man title was no
fluke by giving a solid performance with his partner John Bowles to take 2nd
place in front of local favorites Alex Hunter and Steve McNeill. |
