What you'll need
  • Your name and email address
  • Your British Powerlifting membership number
  • Your division — age category and weight class
  • The qualifying meet: where, the date, and the lifts you hit — it must be an IPF-sanctioned competition (results a gym or unsanctioned meet can't be checked)
  • Your OpenPowerlifting profile link, if you have one (it speeds up verification)

🏅 First time entering a British championship? You belong here if you've hit the total. Registering doesn't guarantee a place — we verify your total, then you'll get an offer if you earn one.

* granted dispensation. Athletes may choose to be listed by first initial and surname. Being inside your class's places on today's standing isn't a place yet — totals are verified first, and an offer can lapse.

How it works
  1. Hit the qualifying total at an IPF-sanctioned meet in the window.
  2. Register your interest — two minutes; we verify your total. Registering doesn't guarantee a place.
  3. Get your offer — if you earn a place, accept in one click and pay within 7 days.
  4. You're on the platform — schedule and session by email.

Places are limited, so registering isn't a guaranteed entry. Once your total is verified, offers are made in order of total within each weight class, up to that class's places. If your class is already full you'll go on the reserve list and be offered a place if one opens up.

Questions about selection or your entry? Every decision has a query route: contact British Powerlifting. Prefer not to enter online? Contact the championships office and we can enter you.

Couldn't qualify or couldn't compete?

If illness, injury, exams, an unavoidable work commitment or major travel disruption stopped you getting a qualifying total — or stopped you competing at the championship you needed to enter — you can ask for dispensation. Requests are decided by British Powerlifting's Dispensation Panel.

Request dispensation →

Have your evidence to hand — a medical certificate, or a letter from your exam board, line manager or travel company. A granted dispensation doesn't cover your fees.
