Welcome Message Mr Gaston Parage IPF President

Merhba!

We look forward to welcome all the delegations from around the world to participate in this event.

On behalf of my colleagues of the IPF Executive Committee, and I, please accept my congratulations to you and your organizing team for being awarded the IPF Sub-junior and Junior, Classic and Equipped, World Powerlifting Championships that will be held on 28 August 2025 to 08 September 2024, in Valletta, Malta.

After your exceptional direction of this World Open Classic Championships last year, in St. Julians, we’re extremely confident the 2024 IPF World Sub-Junior and Junior Championships will be even better, and most likely the largest ever, in the history of the International Powerlifting Federation.

In closing, I want to wish the organizing Committee, and all the athlete, coaches, and officials the very best of success!

Luzzu

A Luzzu is a traditional Maltese fishing boat characterized by its vibrant colors, particularly the combination of bright yellow and blue, and distinctive design elements.

Church Bell Tower

Malta, being a predominantly Catholic country with a rich history and architectural heritage, features numerous church bell towers that are integral to its landscape.

Trilithon entrances are found in Prehistorical temples consisting of two large vertical stones supporting a third horizontal stone set across the top.
