Summary

The International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) has been the only truly “official” vehicle for powerlifters hoping to compete on an international stage. The federation has written into its constitution rules that are supposed to prevent the taint of members participating in untested competitions hosted by other federations, but now it is being used to punish Sean Koch, a dedicated powerlifter from Liechtenstein competing for Switzerland and currently attending university in the US. Due to his scholarship, he’s required to compete in the USAPL (which is no longer affiliated with the IPF). Competing there has drawn a ban from the IPF.

Clearly, he’s in a no-win situation. His only recourse is to file suit. Has the rule gone too far – to the point of unfairness? Especially if it is not being applied equally across all member nations?

Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed as well.
