We’re proud to have sponsored Big Dogs 5, the 2024 ProRaw Powerlifting competition held live at PTC Headquarters in Carrum Downs on Saturday, 23rd November 2024. Billed as “the strongest show on earth,” Big Dogs 5 brought some of the best raw powerlifters in the country — and the world — to our local area for a day of genuinely record-breaking strength.

A world record, right here in Carrum Downs

The standout moment of the day came from Colton Engelbrecht in the 125kg raw-with-wraps division, who set the all-time world record with a 1,155kg total — the highest total ever recorded at the time in his weight class. It’s the kind of performance that puts Carrum Downs on the map in the powerlifting world, and we were glad to play a small part in making the event happen. Check out the results from the competition here.

Why we got involved

As a local, family-owned business, supporting events like Big Dogs 5 is exactly the kind of thing we like to back — it’s local, it’s community-driven, and it brings people together around genuine hard work and dedication, values that aren’t too far removed from how we run our own business. PTC HQ has built a reputation as one of Australia’s best-equipped powerlifting gyms, and events like this showcase exactly why.

Supporting the local community

Sponsoring Big Dogs 5 is part of our ongoing commitment to being an active part of the communities we service across the Mornington Peninsula and surrounding suburbs like Carrum Downs, Frankston, and beyond. Whether it’s a local sporting event or a neighbour needing a hand on moving day, we like to show up for the people and places we work in.

Congratulations to all the athletes who competed at Big Dogs 5, and especially to Colton Engelbrecht on an incredible world record. We’re looking forward to being part of the next one.
