The Annual Haynes Farm Open 2025.

WE ARE BACK!!! 

The Haynes Farm Open returns in 2025 - this time looking pretty in pink, and spanning over the weekend with some brand new classes: 

On Saturday, we will have the following categories: Men's Novice <100KG, Men's Novice >100KG, Women's Novice <75KG, Women's Novice >75KG, Men's Masters (40+)

On Sunday, we will have the main show: Men's <90KG, Men's <120KG, Men's Opens, Women's <75KG, Women's >75KG. 

We'll have a BBQ running both days, as well as merch for sale, as well as hopefully having sponsor stools there this year with products for sale/testers etc! More details to come. Asking a £3.50 minimum entry for spectators, 100% of which will be going to our chosen charity "Let's Play Project" which is based on the farm. Free entry for kids and doggos, but please keep dogs on leads!) 


THE EVENTS 

1) Cambridge Deadlift For Max (3 Lifts - Rising Bar Style). Men on one bar, women on the other. 

The cambridge deadlift set up is unique to the farm, utilising a custom made 3m long axle bar, with Cambridge Rolls straight off the farm, which sits the bar height around 11-12" off the floor. 

£100 CASH PRIZES WILL BE WON FOR NEW RECORDS: 
Currently held by Lewis Byng and Emily Norley (365KG and 175KG respectively)

30s time limit per attempt. All straps/belts okay. No suits/briefs. 


2) Overhead Medley 

4 implements Novice & Masters (Monster Dumbbell, Axle, Log, Circus DB) 

5 implements Main Show (Monster Dumbbell, Axle, Log, Circus DB, Block) 

All items best be returned to Pads/Drop Matts. All implements split timed FTOH. 

ALL WEIGHTS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE

75s time limit. 


3) Max Keg Toss 

Athletes will have 60s to throw the heaviest keg over the bar as possible. Men's height 4m // Women's height 3.5m. 
Lighest keg is 10KG. 

Don't need to do any particular kegs - start in where you like - you can go up and down weight wise if you fail! 


4) Mystery Event 

"You can't park there" - sadly, it is not a car flip with or without an engine ;) 


5) Stone For Reps 

Dead simple - Much like the SMOE, you'll have a choice of 3 stones. 

1 rep on the heaviest stone beats any reps on a lighter stone. 

60s time limit
