Competitions
British Powerlifting has a comprehensive competition programme starting at local level and progressing through national up to British Championships. These attract a large number of lifters, for example over 400 athletes competed in the 2015 British Classic Championships. We send teams to all European and World Championships across all the age groups and disciplines with a high degree of success.
You are never too young or old to make a start in powerlifting; competitors aged 14 year and upwards are welcome. Equally, you are never too old. Several 70+ competitors still represent Britain internationally and many 'masters' lifters only take the sport up in their 40s or 50s. Powerlifting is a great sport with an unrivalled camaraderie which promotes health, strength and vitality. If you decide to take your first steps in the sport and want to lift in an independently drug tested organisation with an established network of local divisions, choose British Powerlifting.

(Southampton area)Details: The Cold Blood Classic will be returning for another year with prize money, 60+ lifters, professional livestream and this time around we'll be running the show from an external venue! We're also collaborating with White Lights Media for top tier visual presentation, livestreaming and media packages.
We want to do things a bit different with this comp and we will be basing the athlete list on GL points rather than a first come first served basis, meaning that this is a brilliant alternative for those lifters of a higher level who might not necessarily reach the British qualifier requirements this year but still want to attend a high quality competition.
Fill in the qualifier form and submit your best total/GL points so we can then start the process of ranking and eventually announcing those who have qualified! If you qualify we will then get in contact with a link for you to sign up.
Entry fee without competition t-shirt - £65
Entry fee with competition t-shirt - £75
You will also have the opportunity to pre-order White Lights Media's variety of competition media packages with a 10% discount!
