SCHEDULE WOOD CHOPPING COMPETITION

22 - 29 SEPTEMBER 2018 | PERTHROYALSHOW.COM.AU

WOOD CHOPPING

The Wood Chopping carnival at the IGA Perth Royal Show is the biggest and most prestigious in WA attracting axemen from all over Australia and New Zealand. The modern Perth Royal Show competition was launched in the 1940s and grew from a two day event to the major drawcard it is now. Wood chopping in WA dates back to 1892 when the first competition was staged in Albany. It has its origin as a sport in the days when the timber industry was thriving and much of our infrastructure, including railway sleepers, was made by hand using axes. Those working in the industry had competitions amongst themselves which became popular with onlookers, and soon wood chopping became a spectacular sport.

MISSION STATEMENT To expose the sport of Wood Chopping to the largest audience in Western Australia as a means of promotion and entertainment.
