Registration is open to those who have a registered total in a USA Powerlifting meet from any year or who are currently registered for a USA Powerlifting competition.
All registrants must have a USA Powerlifting membership number. If your membership is currently expired, do not renew it until November 1 to ensure that it will roll into 2024. If you do not have a USA Powerlifting membership number (current or expired), it means that you are not registered for a meet currently and do not have a previous total, and therefore are ineligible to compete in this event.
All entries are non-refundable. There are no exceptions. Do not email the meet director asking for an exception. Athletes who choose to withdraw by October 5 may choose to take a Calloso meet credit.

TEAM COMPETITION: We will be awarding the top Collegiate and Open Team for this event! Athletes can only be registered to one team, and it must be a USA Powerlifting registered club in the state of Michigan. All competitors must be registered in the Open division. Collegiate rosters will be capped at 20, and Open rosters will be capped at 10 total, across both days of the event. Scoring will be done by points assigned to the top 10 places in the Open division. (1st =12pts, 2nd =9pts, 3rd =8pts, 4th =7 pts, etc.) The Collegiate team and Open Team with the highest number of points combined between men and women wins!
AMERICAN RECORDS: USA Powerlifting American Records can be set at this meet! In order for you to attempt an American Record, you must alert the scoring table when you submit your attempt, so we can prepare to have 3 National referees judge your attempt. American Record totals can only be set if your squat, bench press, and deadlift highest successful attempts were all judged by 3 National referees. To ensure this, please notify the scoring table of your intentions to break an American record total.
AWARDS: Medals will be given to 1st through 3rd place in each weight class in the teen, junior, masters, and open divisions. There will also be awards given for the best teen, junior, masters, and open female and male lifters based on DOTS points.
TECHNICAL RULES: This meet will follow the technical rules found in the USA Powerlifting rulebook. You can find the rulebook here.
There will be a minimum of 10% of participants will be drug tested via urinalysis. For more information on anti-doping or to look up prescriptions and supplements, visit USA Powerlifting’s anti-doping page.
