Why
is sponsorship important?
For
athletes in the sport of powerlifting sponsorship is very important.
We train and work hard all year round to go to the world championships
where we can represent our country with the finest powerlifters
around the world. We are amateur athletes trying to get into
the olympics so all of our athletes are expected to pay for
all travel expenses for all of the meets. As you can imagine,
it becomes a very expensive endeavor in order to do so. If it
were not for the generous sponsors every year I do not think
that I would be able to travel abraud to represent the U.S.A.
in this wonderful platform.
