About Us
New teams are always welcome at Blackhawk events. Fair play and sportsmanship are the foundation of our sport. We'll make certain to work with your team, whether its loaning you pullers to make numbers or dropping pullers to even it out.
If you want to form a new team and are looking for information, email us. We can travel to your location, or you can join us for a practice.
If you think you might be interested in joining a team, email, and we'll let you know where the nearest team is located and when they practice.

Answers to your questions:
*No, we don't pull over a creek or mud, but you still have plenty of opportunity to get dirty if you like.
*Why? Well, we like the workout, friends, travel, and competition (followed by plenty of socializing and therapeutic beverages).
*No, we don't wear gloves, your hands toughen up, and its cool to show everyone at the office your calluses.
*Nope, its not for everyone. Hey if it were easy then everyone would do it, and then it wouldn't be so special! But maybe you're that person who is thinking, hmmm, that looks kinda cool.... (it is).
If you've got more questions, we have answers, or we'll make something up.
