2009 NGA Alabama Natural Open Bodybuilding, Figure and Fitness Model Championships – Pro Qualifier: Results

Forty-eight outstanding men and women athletes vied for Neils Andersen Sculptured trophies at Saturday’s 2009 NGA Alabama Natural Open Bodybuilding, Figure and Fitness Model Championships at a sold-out Hoover High School venue in Birmingham, Alabama.

The crowd enthusiastically supported the contestants who came from Tennessee, Georgia, Louisiana, Florida, Pennsylvania and Alabama to compete for three NGA Pro Cards in Open Figure, Men’s Masters and Open Bodybuilding.

To a person, the athletes were pleased with the setting, the pump up area, the treats and the goodie bags, which were supplied by Muscletology, an Alabama based supplement company and filled with tee shirts, hats, a pair of Gripad workout gloves and supplements. All of the competitors said they would come back next year for the 2010 NGA Alabama Natural Open Championships.

Three NGA Pro Cards were awarded:

Angia Baker of Tuscaloosa, Alabama won the Figure Tall Class and went on to capture the Open Figure Overall

Timothy Holder of Birmingham, Alabama captured the Masters 50+ title and won the Masters Overall. Tim’s posing routine impressed the judges enough for them to award him the show’s Best Poser Trophy.

David Lee Gallahan, Jr. of Pelham, Alabama was scored the unanamous Heavyweight Class winner and also scored a unanamous vote from the judges to become the Overall Champion of the NGA Alabama Natural Open.

Congratulations to our three new NGA Pros.
