Junior/Tertiary Nationals '23

We are pleased to announce that Raising The Bar is returned for a second iteration, for the upcoming Junior/Tertiary Nationals ’23 by Powerlifting Singapore! 

This is the first time Raising The Bar is a prize sponsor for a sanctioned meet, and in conjunction with supporting the tertiary clubs, we hope that this will raise the competitiveness of the tertiary category.

Fundraising

For this iteration, we will continue the fundraising from the carry over funds from the first iteration of Raising The Bar. We are committing up to $400, for one to one dollar matching. This means that the prize pool goes up to $800, double the previous round!

Current Donors:

Justin Han $38.80 (Carry Over)

Goh Joon Khong $20.00

Flo Singh $93.00

Kaiju Systems $120.00

Final Carry Over Funds:

$271.80

Dollar Matching Goal:

$271.80 / $400.00*

*Public donations will be accepted up to a maximum cap of $400, inclusive of the previous carryover funds. It will be capped at the last donor to exceed, and the excess will be split evenly. 

Prizes

The prize pool will be split into two, as before, for the winning team, and for the volunteer’s draw. Volunteers from tertiary clubs can stand to win the prize for their club through lucky draw (the winning tertiary club will be excluded from the draw). Both winners will receive the prize in the form of a gift card, to be used to purchase a power bar and/or other competitive equipment for their club.

Powerlifting Singapore will publish the scoresheet tabulation, and run the volunteer’s draw. The scoresheet tabulation will be published for transparency.

The winning clubs can pass on the prize to the next place winner, if they choose to do so, or are unable to receive the prize. ENSŌ is able to offer a technical workshop to the club if they have passed on the prize.

Closed!

At record breaking pace, the $400 cap was exceeded by our first donor, which wishes to remain anonymous, with a very generous donation of $150! Within the week, Raising The Bar 2 has achieved the dollar matching goal, and will be closed for donations! See you all at Junior/Tertiary Nationals’23!

We would also like to extend our appreciation to our second donor, with another generous donation of $100. Please contact us as soon as possible, and we will refund your donation. We thank you greatly for your interest, and we hope that you will join us for the next iteration of Raising The Bar.

Final Prize Pool:

$400 + $421.80 = $821.80

Prize Value:

$410.90
