2015 ABBA Alberta Provincials - Part 1
Bodybuilding, Figure & Women's Physique Championships
(Edmonton, AB - June 27, 2015)

Rae Healey - 1st Place Overall - Figure
A nice return to covering Alberta Provincials, this show never disappoints! The format has changed in that there isn't a separate morning and evening prejudging/finals, just a morning/day show with certain divisions and evening with the rest. Having somewhat paid attention to what was going on in Figure over recent qualifiers in Alberta, no surprise to see Rae Healey and Gabrielle Tongol among the class winners. Gabrielle is newer to competition at only 19 years of age, terrific future in the sport. She won class A and Rae took D and the overall title, was perfectly dialed in for show day.
Jessica Mercereau - 1st Place Overall - Women's Physique
Women's Physique was exceptional, and a nice surprise indeed! 2013 overall ABBA Provincials Figure champ Jessica Mercereau filled out nicely to compete in Physique. She took a year off from competing and we'd done a photoshoot off season in 2014. I hope she's found her niche now! Some amazing routines throughout, including B Class runnerup Luie Balcarkova and A Class winner Krystia Petrossie.
David  Walker - 1st Place Overall - Men's Bodybuilding
Good classes in Men's Bodybuilding, Light Heavyweight winner David Walker had the complete package to win overall.

Tara Ostafichuk - 1st Place Overall - Women's Bodybuilding
Women's Bodybuilding was dominated by Heavyweight Tara Ostafichuk. Great lines, shape, definition and presentation! Thanks again to John Dirks for promoting this event, and of course the ABBA for allowing me to cover it. Official results at the ABBA website.
