PAL offices in Las Vegas are now officially open. The new, fourth office is located some 5 kilometers away from the famous Vegas Strip. But that’s not the only attraction.
The office itself is 150 square meters large, and inside it we find a photographic and movie studio, a few manager offices, a conference room , a spacious reception area and two guest rooms. There is also a large kitchen and two restrooms.
On the 10th October also formed was World Armwrestling Championships (WAC) company. The company is in charge of the new TOP 16 project. What is TOP 16?
For now it’s a secret – says Igor Mazurenko. – At this time I can only reveal that it will be a series of tournaments, featuring the world’s 16 best armwrestlers. TOP 16 is composed of two divisions – 8 champions and 8 pretenders to the title. Our basic plan is for TOP 16 to be two rounds, four times; all in all 8 tournaments a year. First event is planned to take place in Las Vegas, May 2014. We will reveal the names of the contestants in a few weeks.
The co-founders of WAC are Tomasz Rachwald from Warsaw, and PAL - with Igor Mazurenko and main manager of PAL USA – Richard Erog. Richard Erog will be in charge of armwrestling film distribution and armwrestling events worldwide broadcast.
