RULES

DRUG TESTING

British Powerlifting Federation is unequivocal in its opposition to drugs in sport and strictly adheres to the rules of Drug-free powerlifters. All international lifters are required to register and are included in their Random Drug Testing at tested competitions. In addition, competitors for British Championships are required to complete a Random Testing membership form as part of our new online application process, to enable tested BPF athletes to compete at international meets and World Championships in the time period preceding the championships. British Powerlifting Federation is the only UK powerlifting organisation to have drug testing carried out.
