The Mr. Australia contest, now known as the Australian Championships, is a bodybuilding contest for men and women organised by WFF Australia. It includes fitness, figure, bikini and sports model competitions.[1][2] The Australian Championships is a National Qualifier for major international events.
Beginning in 1947, the Mr. Australia contest was staged haphazardly by various individual promoters. It did not become a regular annual event until 1958.[citation needed] The early contests were not officially associated with any bodybuilding organisation however promoters in each state or territory were mindful not to promote more than one Mr Australia nationally and so shared the contest between them.
