How much effort and cost would be involved in setting up a powerlifting fed?
im sure there are a few non-tested lifters in the north west area who would like a few more comps to lift in.

powerlifting is already too splintered - last thing the powerlifting movement needs is more splintered feds

Ha it has actually been discussed a few times but not too seriously. Informal meets are best for now, but never say never.

Informal meets are the way forward. As soon as you create a fed you create the same problems with every federation that exists, powerlifting or not.

Look at where USA is going, we usually follow. New England Record Breakers is one event that springs to mind, and the Powerstation pro is another.

You don;t even need judges. Video and Youtube is more than sufficient. No weigh ins, no trophys. Supporting your mates and getting support back in turn is all you need.

When I set my fed up Paul it took very little effort. The bad news is that I'm the only person in it, the good news is that I'm currently undefeated world champion and record holderWink
