Default do they have power lifting comps in Australia?

I have been utubeing it a bit lately and i cam across power lifting. I didnt realise it was a sport other than in special games like the olympics etc. Anyway do they do it in ASustralia at all? It would be cool to go have a look.

Powerlifting is not an Olympic sport, you are thinking of weightlifting (clean and jerk + snatch lifts). Powerlifting is a combined total of 3 basic lifts, squat, deadlift and bench press)
Yes they have many powerlifting comps in Australia, google powerlifting Australia and you will see some PW feds.
