September 3, 2011. Cleveland, Ohio. Over the years, The IFBB North American Championships has developed a sterling reputation and tradition as a contest that has launched numerous past winners to the pro level. Cory Everson, Lenda Murray and Kim Chizevsky were all winners at this event before they moved on to the pros. In fact, this trio of former North American champions have accounted for 18 Ms. Olympia titles over the years.
Promoter Gary Udit welcomed contestants from Mexico, Canada and the USA to Cleveland for the eighth year with the classy Renaissance Cleveland Hotel serving as the host hotel and contest venue.
This year a total of 35 contestants in the Open and Masters divisions vied for the two available IFBB pro card qualifications by way of winning the overall title in their respective division with a stalwart group of Canadians making their presence felt in no uncertain terms.
