Bench Teams Head Coach Positions – Closing Date Change

As of this Friday August 7, 2015, applications and resumes for the head coaching positions for the Masters Bench Team and Open/Sub-Jr/Jr Team will no longer be accepted. If you have interest in being considered for these positions please submit your resume and application directly to the Coaching Committee Chair, Matt Gary by that date. The closing date originally posted for the coaching positions is being amended so that a decision regarding these positions can be made prior to the qualifying meet for those teams.

Acceptance of applications and resumes for all other team head coaching positions will remain open until October 1, 2015.

As previously stated all candidates for Head Coach positions must meet the following requirements:

  • Current USA Powerlifting member in good standing
  • USA Powerlifting Senior National Coach (SNC) with assistant coaching experience on a national team AND working toward their SIC credential
  • Extensive experience coaching lifters at the national and international levels
  • Comprehensive understanding of team management as well as IPF policies and protocol

Preference will be given to those that are a USA Powerlifting Senior International Coach (SIC).

All candidates are vetted by the Coaching Committee Chairman and then passed on to the Executive Committee (EC) for review.  The EC makes the final decision on all head coaching appointments.
