After  promoting powerlifting contests with both equipped and raw divisions we discovered that 80 % of all lifters in our meets started competing raw.   There was a need for a World Powerlifting Federation devoted only to raw powerlifting.  In January 2009 we organized the Global Powerlifting Alliance for Raw Powerlifting.  The Global Powerlifting Alliance is the first federation to offer a World Raw Powerlifting Championships devoted only to raw powerlifting.  We have standardized the rules of performance, judging criteria, equipment, and record keeping.

All powerlifters and all nations are invited to join us and help make powerlifting a strength sport.
