About the Scholarship

We know the hardships and sacrifices of loving a sport that doesn't pay often, and we know the expenses that go into being the best you can be on and off the platform. We would not be where we are today without the help of so many, and now it's our turn to give back, and help bring up the next big lifter.

Our goal for this scholarship is to award young athletes with a check for $1,000 each and a powerlifting goodie box. Our hope is that this money is used to help them buy equipment, pay gym dues, enter meets, pay for travel expenses, etc. so that they can succeed in the world of powerlifting.

The Virtual Panel:

Each person who buys a ticket to this event will have a chance to ask questions when they checkout that we will go over on the webinar, as well as an open chat during the show! Once you sign up a zoom link will be emailed the morning of the event to all those who purchased a ticket. Once the show is over you will also have access to the recording via a private Youtube video. All proceeds for this go directly to the Kolbstrong Scholarship for young powerlifters!
