The European Powerlifting Federation has announced a new date for this year’s second edition of the European Open University Classic Powerlifting Cup.

Originally set to take place in April, the current global pandemic has resulted in a postponement of the competition, which will now be organised from August 26-28, 2021 in Merignac, France.

The event will see the best student-athletes from universities across Europe showcasing their strength and skills over the three-day competition in France.

The European University Sports Association signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the European Powerlifting Federation in September 2020, with both organisations committing to the promotion and development of competitions in Powerlifting disciplines among students across Europe, while strengthening general cooperation and partnership between the two partners.
