Kaieteur Sports – The Guyana Amateur Powerlifting Federation is all set to host its Intermediates/Masters Championships on Sunday, May 28 at the Chase Academy Auditorium, Parade Street, Kingston, just opposite the Theatre Guild.
The championship is said to be eagerly awaited by athletes and fans alike, as it brings together some of the best-trained lifters in the country and creates a euphoric atmosphere for supporters present.
The competition is being made possible by the generous support of “Amateur Powerlifting Godfather” Jamie Mc Donald of Fitness Express, for which the federation is immensely grateful.
Approximately 25 lifters will be showcasing their skills at this year’s event, and it promises to be an exciting display of strength and determination.
Lifters are reminded that weigh-in time starts at 07:00hrs sharp, and the first lift of the competition will begin at 09:00hrs.
Patrons will be charged an entrance fee of $1000, which will go towards supporting the federation’s efforts to compete in upcoming international competitions.
Additionally, the federation will be hosting a referee’s clinic, facilitated by International Referee Gordon Spencer at the same venue on Saturday.
