I had a idea...Why dont some of the regulars on here make up a team for The American Challenge...You compete where you want and our scores will be added up as a team, once we're all done, since there are different dates...We just have to give Paul our team member names and usually its a $100 for a team entry, just $10 a piece for 10 members...The lifter on the team that scores the most points or sets the most World records will get the team trophy and/or maybe Paul would give each of us a Certificate with the team members names, etc..etc..
tu, osu, dbunch, Rick Hussey, Rosario, Blackstone, Buckeye, craig.org, Mike Frost, Zekester etc...

10 is all we need for a team...

Does it have to be 10, just looking at the names here I think we have 5 people already and I don’t mind bumping it up to $20 each to do this.

No, it doesnt have to be 10, that just gives you the best chance of accumulating points should another team have 10...It also might be possible to collect a few more lifters before then...I havnt talked to Paul yet, but I will soon, hes usually at the Ironman Nationals in Va on March 23rd...We'll enter a team for the American Challenges in June...I was also thinking that instead of a team trophy that would have to go to one person, what about a certificate with all the names on it, which would mean only copies would have to be made of one certificate and not one for each individual - thus keeping the team entry fee low, lower than if recieving a trophy. This is something I'll talk over with Paul as we get closer to the event...Paul has always been lifter friendly and Im sure something will be worked out...This would be a single event bench press team. Points are awarded by each persons finish in thier respected age & weight division...Gor a team name, does anyone have suggestions?...Heres a few = Forum Fanatics - Forum Force -  ?? |

Post by crazy on Jan 24, 2013 10:15:58 GMT -5
yes we did. But we do not know of any meets yet. It is late January and I personally need at 3 or 4 months notice to set up my cycle. Have a meet in two days and am looking for my next. This is with USAPL.
Trying to nail down a summer meet.
