Throwing Snowballs on Labour Day? Heck Ya!

1st Annual Canadian Snowball Throwing Championships


Brockville, Ontario (Grassroots Newswire) August 26, 2019
-- Canada is known for its hockey, polar bears, and snow geese. But don’t forget our lake-effect blizzards, Alberta clippers, and world-famous wind chill! Just when you think you seen the wackiest of competitions – like the hot dog eating king Joey Chestnut or chainsaw wars, along comes a competition that oddly enough, doesn’t seem to exist on the globe! Announcing SNOlympiad 1, a totally unique competition to measure the athletic skill of Snowball Throwing. Not many Olympic sports require the combination of precision, speed and strength.

Now there is such a sport competition. Canada should be the favourite! 

SNOlympiad 1 will be the first annual World Snowball Throwing Championship held in Ottawa in 2020 to crown the World Champions (male and female) who scored the highest points in three snowball throwing skills; 1) Distance; 2) Velocity; and 3) Accuracy. Participants throw three snowballs at each stage.

With the need to find Canada’s top male and top female representatives, the Canadian Snowball Throwing Championship will be held in Brockville on September 1st, 2019, to crown the champs. They will have the winter to prepare for the World Championships.

EXIT Realty Eastern Ontario is the presenting sponsor. The event was hatched by Duncan MacDonald, Director of franchise development for EXIT Realty Eastern Ontario. MacDonald has over 25 years of experience in event marketing creating many unique marketing events that have expanded worldwide.

The city of Brockville and Brockville Tourism expect the event to grow to attract tourists and spectators to the 1000 Islands region each year.

AJ Plant, Regional Director EXIT Realty Eastern Ontario said “we are thrilled to present an exiting new event to Brockville to help boost the line-up for the BIG RIVER Festival helping attract tourists and in generating the economic benefits. We also want to expose our growing brand throughout eastern Ontario to support our brokerages, including EXIT Realty Brockville.” 

After the competition concludes, spectators and residents will be able to throw threw snowballs as well for $5 and have their velocity and accuracy measured. All proceeds will go to Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Leeds & Grenville. For every dollar raised, EXIT Realty Corp. International will match funding up to $2,000.

There are less than 10 spots that remain for both male and female competitors. Go to www.snolympiad.com for details.
