Standout powerlifting athletes and members of the federation were happy campers following a successful 2018 on the local and international platforms.
After a heist of international precious metal and a plethora of broken national records, it’s needless to say 2018 was a banner year for the strength sport.
Athletes like behemoth, Carlos Peterson-Griffith, Nadina Taharally, the ageless Frank Tucker along with the tireless, voluntary work done by the members of the federation, enabled the sport to reach new heights last year.
Last August, the record breaking pair of Petterson-Griffith and Taharally led Guyana’s eight-member team at the 16th IPF/ NAPF North American Regional Powerlifting Championships in Mexico City to six gold and three bronze medals.
