The introduction of GPC Australia - Powerlifting

Sticky

Active member
So as a few people already know GPC Australia has been introduced as Australia's newest powerlifting federation.

There is two main reason this is happened.
1. To give lifters choices.
2. To give as much support to a world team as possible. Every year.

At the moment, my website is hosting the GPC information until the GPC website is up and running. Everything can be found there.

PTC Brisbane - GPC Australia



Also, newsletter #2 on the website explains it a little from my point of view.

This new federation has nothing to do with ProRaw, CAPO or PA, so bashing those feds will not be tolerated.
Everybody knows whats happened, lets move on and look to the future.

I have posted my comp calendar on my website, Ill also post it on here, Im sure the other reps will do the same.

If you have any questions about GPC Australia, post it in here .
 
Im not going to bag CAPO, so Ill just say lifters wanted another option.
Powerlifting gyms rely on people competing. If they do not the current feds for whatever reason, that affects strength gyms around the country.
This gives them another option.


Also, the inclusion of knee wraps is a big bonus.

p.s think i was sitting next to u at pro raw 3?? second row form the front during benches, i was wearing a red titan singlet.
 
This is one of the best things to happen to powerlifting in Australia.

Can't wait for the comps.

CAPO brought this on themselves by barely putting in any-more effort then someone running a garage competition - some people in CAPO not all of them.
 
Well the what's the fuckin point of starting another fed? ProRaw offer raw and equipped, is non tested and is run by the same ppl? Why not just focus in improving ProRaw?
