Time to lift the veil. The first labour of Hercules Trophy 2026, this June at De Nekker in Mechelen, is one that teams keep asking for: Truck Pulling is back.

The brief

This is how the labour reads for every player in the app:

Truck Pulling. Sounds extreme? That's because it is. This is raw power, grit, and pure Herculean energy in motion.

You, a harness, and a literal truck. No tricks, no shortcuts: just you versus the weight of something that really shouldn't move.

It's a battle of muscle and mindset. Your legs will scream, your arms will burn, and the crowd will roar.

One goal: drag that beast across the finish line like a legend.

Ready to earn some serious bragging rights? Then pull like your reputation depends on it, because it does.

What it asks of your team

  • Endurance ★★★★☆
  • Teamwork ★★★★★
  • Guts ★★☆☆☆

Five stars for teamwork, two for skills. That says it all: nobody moves a truck alone, and the team that decides together when to pull goes furthest. If you want to know why this labour keeps coming back, read what Truck Pulling does to a team.
