Gold Cup
By Al Myers, IAWA President
The 2021 IAWA Gold Cup has been scheduled!
Co-meet promoters Steve Gardner and Stevie Shanks have decided that they will “go forth” with the Gold Cup, knowing that many lifters will be limited with travel restrictions. I’m not sure what it will take to get to Belfast, Ireland from the US at the first of November. Lots can happen by that time with new regulations due to the COVID infection rates.
I’m glad to see that the Gold Cup is going to happen though (just as with Worlds) because I hate to see two years in a row these BIG IAWA competitions being cancelled. I know both will be limited to “domestic” lifters only, but that’s still better than being cancelled. Call it a “rebuilding year” for IAWA – with the hope that 2022 can be back to full strength for IAWA.
I’m going to explore options of attending. If anyone in the USAWA is wanting to go please let me know. Below are the information sheets and entry forms:
