The GPC-GB was formed in 2008 by Lee Marshall, for British lifters who wanted to compete in GPC international competitions.

​

In the UK, led by your President, Lee Marshall and supported by your Vice President Chris Derrick, your GPC-GB  committee works to promote powerlifting in Britain, all aspects of lifting are catered for from Raw to Equipped plus single lifts.

​

We hold competitions across the country ranging from the South, Midlands and North of England and in to Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland.

​

These competitions cater for all levels, from novices to world Champions. Our competitions are run and promoted by some of the countries/Worlds best lifters including Lee Marshall, Chris Pugh, Chris & Jeri Derrick. Just to name a few!

​

In recent years we have had some great international success at GPC European & World Championships, with many individual and team titles in both the Raw & Equipped divisions. In 2015 we promoted our biggest and best ever British Finals, with over 175 lifters over 2 days of competition.

​

The committee has seen the number of British lifters wanting to lift in the GPC-GB increase year on year, more and more or our lifters are wanting to represent Team GB in GPC International competitions.

​

The GPC-GB is becoming one of the fastest growing federations in the UK, backed by a vibrant and growing World federation (GPC) who has 29 affiliated countries plus individual lifters from 5 other countries. This is echoed in the UK with our membership growing to 400 members, of whom 100 were women.

​

We look forward to seeing many new lifters joining and enjoying lifting in the GPC-GB alongside our current members, we will be here to help and guide you in any way we can.
