AUSTRALIAN WINNERS AT THE NABBA UNIVERSE
Digital Download.
The NABBA Universe is the oldest continually running international contest in the world.
It has been an interesting and patriotic pleasure digging into our GMV archives to find the footage needed to produce this very special DVD. It pays tribute to all our great Aussie NABBA champions, men and women who have won titles at the NABBA Universe contest in England.
Many younger people in Australia, and in fact in most of the rest of the world, have no idea of the exploits of these wonderful Aussie bodybuilding stars. History has now been preserved in this tribute DVD.
We added Arnold winning at the 1970 NABBA Pro Universe as our inspiration at the very beginning. He was an inspiration to our athletes also step up to the NABBA winner’s circle. Arnold is followed in the DVD by all the Aussie male winners of a Universe title followed by all the female winners of this prestigious title.
Every athlete listed below is named on screen and is selectable from the DVD menu making this an excellent resource to study the posing style of your favourite champion. The NABBA Universe as it is known today commenced in 1948 in London. It took from 1948 till 1982 till Australia produced our first ever winner, in JOHN TERILLI.
Here now is the list of all Australian NABBA Universe winners. For information on entering NABBA contests in Australia, please contact Graeme Lancefield through the NABBA Australia web site at www.nabba.com.au All footage was supplied by GMV Productions www.gmv.com.au

SPECIAL NOTE: Brian Buchanan won the Professional Class this year, representing Australia. As he only lived in Australia (from UK) for a relatively short number of years, it was deemed unfair to include him in this DVD as a true Australian Universe winner. That makes our only men's winners: GRANT CLEMESHA, LEE PRIEST, JOHN TERILLI, GRAEME LANCEFIELD & MICHAEL MELKSHAM. Plus the Amateur Class winners above.
GRANT CLEMESHA and LEE PRIEST our only OVERALL AMATEUR MR. UNIVERSE WINNER. |
