Announcing the 2026 Konti'shátste' Strong Women Competition in honour of Women's Health Month! Hosted in collaboration with CrossFit Cornwall and the Onkwehonwe Midwives Collective, this is a fun, challenging, community-building event created just for Indigenous women.

Join us on Saturday, May 30 at the A'nowara'ko:wa Arena (Cornwall Island) for five unique challenges designed to test strength, endurance, and toughness. Competitors will earn points in each event toward a combined total, plus you can earn bonus points from spectators. Each spectator receives a ballot to vote for their favourite competitor after they compete, so bring your friends and family to cheer you on.
