Finals Update: A year ago we had to postpone the finals of Athens
Throwdown just a few days before they were going to take place. It was a tough decision,
however the health of the athletes, the staff, the spectators, the exhibitors and all
those who were going to participate in the event was, above all, non-negotiable.
Unfortunately, despite our efforts and despite the fact that there have been signs of
progress towards fighting the pandemic, conditions and local authorities still don’t
allow such a large event to take place. A fitness festival with more than 1,100 athletes
and thousands of spectators from 51 countries, is too large for the current
circumstances. Additionally, in many countries gyms have been closed for months, flights
have not been fully restored and vaccinations are not progressing as fast as we hoped.
Consequently, we have to wait one more year and meet on 2022: with the
gyms open, all
the athletes better prepared, with an endless mood for travel and new experiences and,
most important, with all of us safe and well!
The exact dates will be announced as soon as humanly possible. Moreover, although it is
financially painful, no new qualifiers will be held, respecting the athletes who gave
their best last year: Individuals and Teams keep their spot, while teams have the right
to change up to two athletes.
We overcame the greatest difficulties and we remained safe until today. We will have to
be a little more patient and we will meet, with an increased appetite, where we know
best: inside the arena! We can’t wait!
