Canadian Powerlifting Union National Championships underway in Moose Jaw

More than 600 competitors in Friendly City for week-long event at Moose Jaw Exhibition Centre

MOOSE JAW -- All the organization and preparation has finally come to fruition for the Canadian Powerlifting Union National Championships organizing committee.

More than 600 competitors from throughout the province are in Moose Jaw for the 2025 edition of the event, with action kicking off on Sunday afternoon with the Masters and Sub-Junior classic bench press-only competition at the Moose Jaw Exhibition Centre.

The action is as smooth as can be, too, as the veteran crew of organizers and spotters roll through the lifts at top speed, keeping things entertaining for the fans cheering on the competitors.

A decent crowd showed up for the opening round of competition, with around 100 spectators watching the action.

The main three-lift portion of the event -- bench press, deadlift and squat -- gets underway on Monday at 9:30 a.m. and will continue throughout the week before wrapping up on Saturday, Mar. 1.

Admission is free and spectators are encouraged to come on down and check out the action. For a complete list of competitors and the meet schedule check out and click on the.
