is the IPF’s candidate for the Athlete of the Year award.

In the resent years the nominated lifters from the IPF were always very close to win the voting but resulted in second place only for a few votes.

To avoid ending up again on the second place, we encourage all of you to send this information’s below to all your members and encourage them to vote for Rhaea.

To win this very prestigious award will give not only the lifter but also the whole sport a big awareness in the international sports community.

Please read all instructions below very carefully and follow the instructions. Please be also aware that only the 10 highest ranked athletes will continue after the 20th January for the “Big Final” until 30th January!

Regards,

Gaston Parage
IPF President
