LGBT IPC 2019
The LGBT International Powerlifting Championships are currently organised by "The Union", as an unsanctioned fun competition, to encourage LGBT Participation in the sport.
We currently offer Novice, Closed, Open categories for participants, which gives LGBT athletes as much choice as possible to compete. (See competition rules for more details of this).
LGBT IPC 2018 was the first sports event in the world to offer an MX third gender category, welcoming Trans, Non Binary and Intersex athletes to compete. The LGBT IPC 2019 will also have an MX Category !
