Powerlifting team unable to participate in South American championships

Due to the weight of expenses of the FESUPO Classic Power-lifting Championship, Guyana’s contingent is unable to participate at the 25th edition of the event which got underway recently in Ecuador.

According to a release, the Guyana Amateur Powerlifting Federation’s (GAPLF) inability to mobilise the resources needed to cover the cost of the team’s participation has resulted in the team remaining in the 592.

“The GAPLF wishes to express its appreciation to those sponsors who reposed confidence in Team Guyana and committed their material support. Unfortunately, we were unable to meet the threshold to ensure minimum in travel and accommodation.”
