Since 2014, the Iron Wood Classic has been one of the top throws-only competitions for USA Olympians, Olympic hopefuls, and the best High School level throwers in the nation under the NSAF national governing body. The Iron Wood Throwers Center is privileged to host this meet in late Spring every year. The meet features all 4 throwing events: Shot Put, Hammer, Discus and Javelin. The Classic was created to give national level throwers a world class event to compete in, and all top 3 professional event placers receive prize money to help assist their quest to USA World and Olympic Teams.
For 2023, we are pleased to announce that our Saturday meet will be a World Athletics Bronze-level meet. World rankings points, as well as a $25,000 total purse will be up for grabs! Meet information will be posted soon, as well as, information regarding travel and housing support for USATF Tier/Program athletes.
