WE ARE BACK!!! and buzzing to announce the return of Colchester’s Strongest 2026 — bigger, better, and absolutely ready to go after our break in 2025.
We’ve taken everything that made the previous comps a massive success and levelled it up. This year, we’re bringing 9 categories, giving up to 80 athletes the chance to compete.. Whether you’re a first timer or a seasoned competitor, 2026 is your year to prove exactly what you’re made of.
We know there are other comps out there and it's fantastic to see more quality events coming to our area and that’s exactly why we’re pushing harder. Expect a properly run show, crowd-pleasing events, smooth transitions, fair judging, and an atmosphere that hits from the moment the first whistle blows.
As always, trophies go to the top three in every category, also we hope to add prizes as we come closer to the event.
If you’ve ever wanted to test yourself, be part of something special, or show off the strength you’ve been building — this is your chance.
Colchester’s Strongest 2026. LETS MAKE IT THE BIGGEST YET!.
