Bodybuilders from eight countries to compete at ‘Stage of Champions’ on July 9

The privately promoted ‘Stage of Champions’ has collaborated with the Guyana Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation to host an event on July 9 at Ramada Princes Hotel, Providence, from 16:00h.

As has been the case in the previous four editions, overseas competitors will attend the event, and according to the organisers, athletes will come from Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Grenada, Guyana, Suriname, St. Maarten and Trinidad and Tobago.

They will compete in three categories- Bodybuilding, Miss Bikini and Men’s Physique.

Guyana is expected to be represented by several elite athletes, including reigning Mr. Guyana Bodybuilding Champion Darious Ramsammy, reigning Men’s Physique Champion Emmerson Campbell, and Central American and Caribbean (CAC) gold medallist, Julio Sinclair.

According to the organisers, they have several heavyweight sponsors such as New GPC Inc., Camille’s Academy, Masterpiece Rentals, Prem’s Electrical, West Indies Sport Complex, E Master Inc., Unity Gym and Unity Cabs, Frontline Restaurant, Ele’s Hardware and Trading and V Fitness, Lyft Gym, Western Scientific, IPA Health Care, Innovative Electronics, Crown Mining Supplies and Guyana Outdoors Sportsman.

Several other partners have signalled their intentions of coming on board financially.

The sponsorship received will mostly go towards the cash prizes that the successful athletes will receive on the night.
