MEET ANNOUNCEMENT – THE 2011 USAWA CLUB CHALLENGE
John McKean and Art Montini of the Ambridge VFW BBC are the hosts for the 2011 USAWA Club Challenge.
After the overwhelming success of the USAWA Club Challenge last year, John McKean has announced plans to host this unique team competition again this year. The date has been set – March 12th. The Club Challenge will follow along the same guidelines as last year. This competition is a “team” competition – with each club bringing three members whose adjusted points will be added together to form a “team score”. No awards will be given for individual performance. The Challenge will occur at the famous Ambridge Barbell Club in Ambridge, PA. John has set an afternoon start time to allow for lifters to fly in the morning of the meet. This is a great opportunity for all USAWA Member Clubs to show their “team spirit” by pitting themselves against other clubs in the USAWA. Even though I would like to see teams composed of USAWA members who list their club as their affiliated club on the membership roster, this is not required. So if you are the only one from your club that wants to attend and you can find two other team members, that is allowed. If a club wants to bring more than one team – that is ok as well. The Ambridge BBC is a very interesting gym, and contains equipment that you will not see anyplace else! Plus after the meet, John knows the best places to eat in town and you will not be disappointed in the post-meet celebration!
