Powerhouse Armwrestling Club was founded in April 2020 by a group of Gold Coast athletes who wanted a real home for the sport — not a side show at a gym, but a dedicated club where serious competitors and curious beginners are both welcome. We're volunteer-run, not-for-profit, and every dollar goes back into the club.
We're an incorporated association — which means we're structured, accountable, and built to last. No one is paying themselves to run this club. It's coaches, members, and committee putting in the hours because they love the sport.
From complete beginners to athletes chasing national titles, everyone trains together. That's what makes the sessions work — you learn fast when you're pulling against people better than you, and you get stronger when the newcomers push you to explain what you're doing.
We cover the full technical game every session: back pressure, pronation, the top-roll, the hook, wrist curl strength, and explosive pulling speed. Show up enough times and you'll surprise yourself.
We train every Saturday. Come along, no experience necessary — just show up and we'll take care of the rest.
From day one, the plan has been to build from the foundations up. We call these the Powerhouse Pillars — the four things that turn a good club into a great one.
Arm wrestling is a legitimate strength sport with a rich competitive history, and we're committed to growing it on the Gold Coast the right way — structured, safe, and community-rooted.
We're proud to have the support of the City of Gold Coast as we build the club and put the region on the national arm wrestling map.
