AGARTALA | June 21, 2026: In a major milestone for the state’s bodybuilding and fitness ecosystem, the Tripura Body Builders and Fitness Association (TBFA) has announced that it will host its inaugural district-level championship series across all approved districts starting this July. The official roadmap for this historic calendar was unveiled during a press conference organized by the TBFA at the Agartala Press Club today.
The comprehensive series is designed to decentralize the sport, providing a formal competitive platform for raw athletic talent emerging from every corner of Tripura.
West Tripura to Kick Off Month-Long Tournament Trail
Addressing media personnel at the Agartala Press Club, TBFA President Tanay Das detailed the chronological schedule of the tournaments. The competitive trail will officially kick off on July 19, 2026, with the West Tripura District-Based Championship.
Following the inaugural event in the capital zone, the competition will move sequentially through the other designated districts, ensuring a highly structured and continuous state-level talent hunt. The entire tour will culminate in a grand finale on August 22, 2026, with the Dhalai District-Based Competition marking the conclusion of the tour.
”For the first time in the history of Tripura’s fitness fraternity, we are taking bodybuilding championships directly to the grassroots level across all approved districts. This series will not only standardize competition rules but will also help us scout exceptional athletic talent who often miss out on state-level events due to geographical barriers. We kick off in West Tripura on July 19 and will conclude this massive journey in Dhalai on August 22,” TBFA President Tanay Das announced during the press briefing.
Sports Fraternity Rallies Behind the Initiative
The press conference also witnessed strong solidarity from the regional sports media ecosystem. Saraju Chakraborty, President of the Sports Journalists Federation of India (SJFI), graced the briefing as a special guest and highly lauded the association’s decentralization blueprint.
Other key executive officials and technical committee members of the TBFA were also present, confirming that registration modules, weight-category brackets, and specific venue layouts for each individual district will be released online over the comming weeks.
