To whom it may concern: USAPL is no longer affiliated with the IPF. USA Powerlifting (USAPL) is a national powerlifting organization in the United States. The USAPL sanctions local, regional and national meets in the country.[1] The current president of the USAPL is Larry Maile.[1]
The USAPL is a drug tested organization and restricts the usage of equipment to single ply suits and shirts in the equipped division.[1] The raw division of the USAPL allows wrist wraps and knee sleeves as well as a weight belt.[1] In 2019, USAPL announced that transgender women would not be allowed to compete as women.[2]
In November 2021, USA Powerlifting was expelled from the International Powerlifting Federation over some of its policies.[3] On January 14, 2021, female transgender weightlifter JayCee Cooper launched a discrimination lawsuit against USA Powerlifting in the District Court of Minnesota.[4] In place of IPF World Championships, USA Powerlifting has started the USA Powerlifting Pro Series Circuit. In late February 2023, a Minnesota District Court ruled that USA Powerlifting must permit transgender athletes to compete.[5] The ruling was affirmed by the Minnesota Court of Appeals in March 2024.[6]
