A mighty day of strength to you!
The 2025 USAWA Nationals is less than one month away and things are looking great for a fantastic meet.
I wanted to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who has registered so far, all memberships are current and we are excited to see old friends and meet new ones as well. Here are 5 quick points to remember as we inch closer to Nationals.
1. First a HUGE THANK YOU too our sponsors of the 2025 USAWA Nationals!
Arm Assassin Strength Shop for sponsoring the Saxon Deadlift event, Cerberus Strength USA for sponsoring the Dinnie Lift event and Weight It Out for providing weights for the platform! Thank you to each of these companies and we greatly appreciate it. Lifters please remember these fine companies when making your strength equipment purchases, they are supporting us and let’s support them with our business.

3. Referees at Nationals! We currently have 12 referees signed up to register at the Nationals. If you are a current USAWA referee and would like to referee at the meet, please let me now ASAP. All referees will need to wear a blue polo shirt with shorts or pants. Thank you to all referees for being willing to support the USAWA with your time and effort.
4. Awards at the 2025 Nationals will be given by weight class first and then age groups. The best lifter awards came in this week and look nice. We will have a Best Lifter award for Overall, Junior (20 & under), Senior (20-40) and Masters (40 and over). Plus, we will be awarding the USAWA NATIONAL TEAM CHAMPIONS!. We currently have 8 teams(USAWA clubs) signed up for Nationals, this looks like a record turnout for teams lifting at Nationals. The scoring will be done by taking the top 3 from each team and adding their total points together. Teams can only score with present members. As an example, if a team has 2 members present at Nationals they will have 2 scoring lifters. We have a very nice Eagle sculpture to award to the winning Team at the 2025 USAWA Nationals.
5. The Bourbon Distillery tour at 2 pm on Friday at Southern Kentucky Distillery has close to 20 people attending so far. If you would like to see and taste a little Kentucky Bourbon please let me know ASAP, so we can add you to the distillery tour. It’s a beautiful location less than 15 minutes from the Baymont Inn.
Following the distillery tour will be the USAWA National Meeting at Angie’s Family Restaurant in Albany, Kentucky. Please be at Angie’s Restaurant between 5 and 5:30 pm to get your order in or eat from the buffet. All attendees are responsible for their own food costs. The National meeting will begin at 6 pm, please come to the national meeting and support the USAWA.
