Powerlifting Information
Powerlifting can be competed as a single athlete or Unified with a non-athlete partner. The minimum age to practice and compete is 14.
Unified players 18 and over will need to complete Class A Volunteer forms and associated checklist items to be eligible to practice and compete.
Unified players under 18 should still register through the link above, but will not have to complete all steps for the Class A Volunteer.
Please inform the coach if the athlete is going to compete Unified and who their Unified Partner will be.
