About the Team

Forged in Alberta's ranchlands, the Calgary Rangers embody Prairie toughness, blue-collar grit, and the hard-earned power of the West. Led by multi-time National Champion Len Houghton and backed by two of his heavyweight sons, this squad blends family chemistry with relentless pressure at the table. Expect grinding hooks, smart counters, and unmatched endurance. When the Rangers pull, they don't retreat—they stand, dig, and deliver.

Len Houghton

Team Manager

A decorated veteran of Canadian arm-wrestling, Len Houghton brings championship pedigree and decades of experience to the Calgary Rangers. A multi-time Canadian National Arm-Wrestling Champion, Len has earned respect across the country through his consistency, power, and longevity in the sport. Off the table, Len works as a truck driver—the most classic arm-wrestling profession there is, and a blue-collar culture that mirrors the very spirit of TAWF. Len's mission is simple: build a roster that reflects Alberta's ruggedness, bring out the best in his athletes, and instill the heart and discipline that gets the job done. The Rangers are a brotherhood that enters every match with a bond and trust that cannot be coached.
