Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:10:06 -0500

The CPU's top Wilks lifter of all-time, Greg Doucette, may not be allowed to compete in the federation's 2010 Nationals.

Doucette is a member of the provincial affiliate, Nova Scotia Powerlifting Association (NSPA). One of the NSPA's requirements for allowing lifters to attend Nationals is that they must compete in or organize an event in Nova Scotia.

In 2009, the NSPA only put on one event, Provincials, which Doucette did to attend. Further, they have no other meets scheduled in which Doucette can fulfill his requirements. In the past four years, the NSPA has organized at least two meets a year.
