Next PAA WARZONE is Devastating Devon/Odins Warzone 25th April (see events calendar) . This is a seaside adventure so bring your buckets, spades, string vests & knotted hankerchiefs if you're off to the beach afterwards. Is the missus fed up of you going away for armwrestling? This is the perfect opportunity - "how about a nice trip to the seaside? I've been looking at Devon, Westwood Ho & Bideford area looks promising." Arrive Friday night, pop out to get milk on Saturday & blame me for seeing you at the shop & kidnapping you til Saturday evening. I'll write you a note. Odins have just announced that Runes Gin Company have sponsored the event with a free bottle of Gin for the winner. You could take that back to the missus & say you bought it as a present & all is forgiven. See, we think of everything & look afer you too.

The Warzone league is currently being led by Callum Rice with Bogdan Bodui, Chris Rimmer, David Bradford, Karl Crosby & Tom Atherton being the chasing pack. It's still early days with at least another five warzone events to go before someone gets to take it home forever - it's possible that someone who hasn't yet competed in this years events can still prevail. Lots can happen before October & progression is clearly happening which is what I like to see. 

 

Kong Tutt put his poster out for the British Sit Down Armwrestling Championships for 9th May - details are on the events calendar, contact them directly with any queries, not me. 
 

Newcastle Warzone has been finalized for 4th July,  that's the day when the big spaceship arrives so wear tinfoil hats & watch the skies. If you are the first to encounter an invading alien, the Will Smith "Welcome to Earth" greeting is to be used or "to the UK," whichever you prefer.  The events calendar has been updated accordingly. ​​​

Armgods have another edition of Ultimate Armwrestler which will be the day after the Devon Warzone, with ARMGODS ENGLAND matches being arranged for 6th June in Noah Burton's manor. He's the mayor there & you can address him as "your worshipful mightyness" if you go. Armgods have a website & app for you to play with via armgods.com, announcements seem to be appearing on youtube at the moment. 

 

Welcome to G3 Armwrestling Club from Inverness who have introduced themselves this week. The most common enquiry on our contact form is "I live ________ & can't find a club in my area" or such like. Well, there are 70 clubs listed on the clubs page & there are instructions there how to find them. If you want to get involved, we've made it easy for you.

Declan Dillon has been invited to compete at the world championships in strict curl, in Siedlce Poland on May 17th 2026. Give him some support if you can, you'll want to be his mate when he returns as the champ.

See you down the road.
