Powerlifting comprises of three disciplines: Squat, Bench Press and Deadlift. The RAF Powerlifting Association (RAFPA) aims to promote the sport on all levels.
Multiple training camps are held throughout the year geared towards building various skills found within the sport. These camps are delivered by RAF personnel who have attended recognised civilian coaching courses and each event provides insight and experience to help build the athlete’s confidence to compete at a professional level. The Powerlifting Association prepares the athlete for competition, educates them on the rules, and gives them the best possible chance to create a Personal Best.
For those interested in taking up this sport, please take a look at the events calendar on the RAFPA SharePoint page, or get in touch with the Association @RAFPowerlifting on Facebook and Instagram.
