Can't find an answer regarding USPF Memberships?
As of February 1st, 2022, USPF Meet Directors no longer collect USPF Membership Applications or Membership fees. USPF Meet Directors duties are limited to only to checking USPF Membership Cards to verify Lifters, USPF Referees, and USPF Officials have the required current USPF Membership Cards at a USPF Meet or Event.
USPF Memberships can only be purchased and obtained by the available options online at www.USPFtheLegend.com. USPF Membership Applications and Membership Fees that are mailed via USPS must be received before the day of the meet/event. An email from USPFtheLegend@aol.com will be sent as confirmation until he/she receives his/her USPF Membership Card. USPF Membership Applications and Membership Fees can be submitted online by the Applicant the day of the USPF Meet, Event, or at weigh-ins.
It is solely the Lifter’s responsibility to obtain a USPF Membership Card and submit the Application and Fees directly to the USPF National Office. USPF Membership Applications and Fees will NOT be accepted if a USPF Meet Director, staff, or any USPF Official fills out the paper form, accepts money from the Applicant and/or mails in such.
ALL participating Lifters and USPF Referees/Officials must have a current USPF Membership to participate in any USPF Meet or Event.
The "3 Lifters" Membership Card is the only valid USPF Membership Card for lifters and the gold and black flag with the eagle USPF Logo Card is for Officials. Absolutely NO others are accepted. Membership and ID Cards must also have current USPF Expiration Stickers to be valid.
All Officials must have current USPF Membership and lifters must have current USPF Membership to compete.
A USPF Supporter Membership Card is also now available for non-lifters & non-officials of all ages. It has the gold and black flag with the eagle USPF logo and is labeled as a USPF Supporter Member.

We are saddened (and shocked) by the passing of a legacy Legend and one of our USPF Board of Directors Members, Rickey Dale Crain. Rickey was an inductee in both the USPF Hall of Fame and York Barbell Hall of Fame. Powerlifting USA magazine had labeled him the G.O.A.T. powerlifter in the 165 lb bwt class. He was a 5-time World Champion, multiple National Champion, and made/broke numerous World, National, and State Records. Rickey was still active in ALL aspects of powerlifting. Our sincerest condolences to his family.
