Edmonton, AB. 2004 Overall Alberta Champions Jody Wald & Corey Annabel

2004 was definitely a banner year in Alberta for fitness, figure and bodybuilding. Please support our local athletes in everyway possible, from sponsorships, attending shows, to being supportive when seeing them around the gym. Although Alberta has a great group of sponsors, without everyone supporting them it's difficult for them to turn around and help us - whenever possible keep this special group in mind as they are the ones that help the show promoters put together the fantastic, exciting shows they do.

2005 Contest Schedule

Important Notice:

The entry deadline for Alberta Body Building Association (ABBA) events is the Friday two weeks before the weigh-ins for the event in question. A late entry fee of $100 will be applied to late entries for all events held after the June 2004 Annual General Meeting. This was passed unanimously by the athletes - the reason for this is to cut down on the "processing" time of last minute entries the night of the weigh-ins which has a tendency to prolong an already lengthy evening. The amount of $100 was the general consensus as a decent deterrent for late/last minute entries. Please show respect for your fellow athletes and have this business taken care of as early as possible.
