The Online World Cup Series was the first Paralympic sport competition created during the COVID-19 pandemic to offer athletes the possibility to remain active and motivated while training from home.
Athletes submit videos of their attempts through an online platform. The final scores are based on a statistical coefficient used to equalise and compare athletes’ performances between different body weights.
You can follow the Online World Cup Series on World Para Powerlifting social media pages on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
