This is a reminder to competitors and meet directors that all meets (except for High School meets) now need to following the IPF weight classes starting in 2015.  Below is a listing of both the kilo amounts and the pound equivalents rounded correctly to the nearest 1/4 lb.

Women – 94.75lbs/43kgs (Teen/Juniors only), 103.5lbs/47kgs, 114.5lbs/52kgs, 125.5lbs/57kgs, 138.75lbs/63kgs, 158.5lbs/72kgs, 185lbs/84kgs, 185lbs+/84+kgs

Men – 116.75lbs/53.00kgs (Teen/Juniors only), 130.00lbs/59.00kgs, 145.50lbs/66.00kgs, 163.00lbs/74.00kgs, 182.75lbs/83.00kgs, 205.00lbs/93.00kgs, 231.25lbs/105.00kgs, 264.50lbs/120.00kgs, 264.50+lbs/120.00+kgs

To keep things simpler lifters should be weighed in kilos for meets.
