The Downtown Throwdown Power Meet

About the event

Join us for the Downtown Throwdown, a fun and high-energy powerlifting meet at the Phoenix Denver Community Center. This event is a partnership between The Phoenix and the Salvation Army Harbor Light Center, bringing our communities together through strength, connection, and recovery. Athletes will compete in the three classic lifts: back squat, bench press, and deadlift. Whether you're stepping onto the platform or just coming to cheer people on, this is going to be a great day of lifting and community. Participation is free, but athletes are encouraged to make a suggested donation to support the event.
