Please note that to qualify to compete as a Raw Powerlifter at WPC worlds you must compete at one of the qualifying meets under WPC Raw Powerlifting rules.

If you are interested in going please email indicating your interest in attending WPC Worlds. You can do this at any time once you have registered for one of the CPF competitions listed above.
