Pennsylvania State Championships

This event is open to all lifters. You can compete in the out-of-state divisions if you are not a Pennsylvania athlete. 

We are planning for this to be a single-session, multi-platform event. It will be all Eleiko racks. We are looking to run a great event that will be done in the early afternoon. We are currently set at a 120-lifter cap, which is the equivalent of 2 platforms. We will consider adding a 3rd platform and additional cap once the cap is met. 

We will run the event via Liftingcast and live-stream it. Check out the video from last year's event, which was hosted in the same location.
