Coaching Courses Added

Three upcoming USAW Coach courses have been added to the calender:

• Level 2 - Green Bay, July 12-13 taught by Coach Gremore
• Level 1 - Wisconsin Dells, August 2-3 taught by Scott Safe
• Level 1 - Green Bay, September 27-28 taught by Mark Cannella

This is a great opportunity to get your coaching certification or to advance to a national level coach. We can personally vouch for the skill and expertise of all three instructors, so if you've been considering attending one sign up now!

Various Website Updates

We've added quite a bit to the site over the last few days, including the current records, historic results, rankings, club information, and uploaded a copy of our current bylaws.

Welcome!

P.S. - our next sanctioned meet is the Wisconsin Open in June at the 262 Barbell Club in Waukesha. That's less than 2 months away - better get squatting...
