All lifters should familiarise themselves with the WPC Rules.

Only real major differences are no gear check, 24 hour weigh in, can lift RAW and RAW + (belt and wraps) and the bench press rule - head allowed off bench, heels can raise, no start command provided you take the bar from the centre lift off with locked arms....

The NZPFs current stance for athletes wishing to compete at this event.

have had a reply from the NZPF president to my initial question. The following is his response.

"I recently sent an email to all the secretaries which may not have filtered down to the members yet. The gist of it is........

CAPO has made an appearance in NZ. Our constitution does not include any provision to prohibit lifters from competing in another Federation. However the IPF's does- and it makes it a legal nightmare to try and enforce something we have no grounds to. My experience in this area tells me that whenever there is a dispute of this nature the rules stop at our constitution. What may happen is if the IPF gets wind of any lifters competing in a non-IPF sanction event that another Federation runs and drug testing is not carried out, they may refuse any international nominations with that lifters name on them.

Ergo--lifters going in CAPO comps do at their own risk. Powerlifting Australia's constitution is more robust thans ours and being a legal company, has enforced this rule and sanction 7 lifters for a one year suspension.

If CAPO lifters want to compete in NZ comps--again we have no grounds to refuse except they would need to comply with our rules--esp. the one about going on the DFS programme.

In short, the NZPF won't take any action. My enquires to the IPF were met with vague replies which didn't really give clear direction on what action they would take..

Regards

Steve

you remember what happened to the last 48 bro ... will keep it in mind, tnx. I'm doing my refs exam this weekend so may not lift - although I'm tempted to bench only. Have a 50 to test drive shortly as soon as my neck gets signed off by the doc. :pray: - (much better now - but headaches have come back )

What is meant by..."No gear check"?

[steak]

No gear check means there is an equipment check for suits, wraps, belts, t shirts, underpants, etc as in the IPF. Its up to the lifter to make sure they are not breaking any of the simple rules in CAPO (WPC Rule Book)

There is also no drug testing in CAPO so you can use OTC supplements without fear of a ban.
