USAWA

By Eric Todd

Lift for Leroy is less than 2 weeks away and I just wanted to outline a few things to ensure we run a smooth meet.

• We will be doing the lifts for the National Postal first.  No record day lifts will be performed until the National Postal portion of the meet has concluded.
• If you are planning on competing, let me know now, along with the lifts you are planning on completing for records so that I can ensure I have the right equipment and can be best prepared for a smooth meet.
• There is a potential for a rather large turnout.  As meet director, I reserve the right to limit the number of attempts per lift to 3, depending on the number of lifters.
• You are responsible for knowing if you re attempting a world record or not.  We will not be using the 3 official system throughout on the off chance lifters are attempting a world record.  We will be using the 1 official system, unless.
• From my reckoning, we will have 3 qualified officials, along with one official in training in attendance.  Please keep in mind that all officials in attendance have records of their own they are wanting to complete as well.
• We are lifting in the basement.  Please park up top and walk around to the basement door.
• Remember, it will probably be a little chilly in the basement.  Wear whatever you wish to between lifts to stay warm; however, USAWA dress code will be enforced on the platform.  Be ready to lift in a t-shirt and shorts or a singlet.
