The Nutri-Grain IronMan and IronWoman series are nine

Channel Nine will be broadcasting the revamped Nutri-Grain IronMan and IronWoman series this summer.

All six rounds of the Nutri-Grain series will air over three weekends beginning on December 19th. It is the first time the series has aired on free-to-air television in 10 years.

Prize money worth $ 200,000 will be offered to athletes and will be divided equally between women and men.

The competition will be held at three locations. The series will open in Kingscliff, NSW.

The ten best female and male athletes from last year’s series are guaranteed to qualify for the 2020-21 competition. Another eight male and female places must be decided in a qualifying tournament. There are also two wildcard spots on offer, expanding the entire field to 20 men and 20 women.

“The Nutri-Grain IronMan and IronWoman series are iconic and our brand unites many sports fans, from young pliers to traditional sports fans,” said Adam Weir, CEO of Surf Life Saving Australia.

“We are thrilled to have our elite sports series on free-to-air TV for the first time in more than a decade and to reach a wider audience.

“Not only are Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Ironmen and Ironwomen some of the fitter athletes in the country, but they are also great surf lifeguards who watch over the beach throughout the season.”
