USA Pennsylvania will be hosting the 2002 USAPL American
Open Powerlifting Championships. The idea behind this contest is to give
all USAPL lifters the opportunity to lift at a Nationally sanctioned event,
with National or International judges. This contest will exclude any lifter
who has placed in the top 5 in the Men's or Women's Open division in that
last three years. It will also exclude any lifters who have have completed
a USAPL elite total in the last three year. Another GREAT thing about this
contest is if you win the Open division, you AUTOMATICALLY qualify for
the 2003 USAPL Men's and Women's Open National Championships, regardless
of what you total.
This contest is going to be hosted by USAPL Pennsylvania.
This network of folks has been plugging away the last 2.5 years trying
to get big contests, back in Pennsylvania. We have fully equipped our state
with IPF legal equipment. Thanks to
Kim
Newman at
MoveItFitness.com,
we will have ER Squat and Bench racks, Chrome Ivanko weights, BarLoad software
and more!!! For those of you have not experienced a USAPL Pennsylvania
contest, this is your opportunity.
The venue for this contest is huge 12,000 square foot
facility, it is located in the
Holiday
Inn located adjacent to the
King
of Prussia Mall. This venue provides not only a great place to have
a large contest, it also is a great place to bring the family for any last
minute shopping right before the Christmas holiday!
Now we know the news of this contest is late. This idea
was kicked around for a while and the getting a venue proved to be a difficult
thing to pull off. But now it's all come together and we would like for
you to come out and support this contest. I think it's a great concept
for a contest and it will be a great day of lifting.
