Why Catalano Events Hosts the Best Meets in Canada (Yes, Really)

Whether It’s Your First or Fifth Meet — This Is the One to Do

Last weekend, I worked at a Catalano Events powerlifting meet — and I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the best-run meet I’ve seen in Canada.

Whether you’re a first-time lifter or a seasoned competitor, this is the kind of platform you want to step onto.

Here’s why:

1. The Environment Is Unmatched

  • The warm-up area is spacious, clean, and fully stocked with everything you need.

  • The platform? Top-tier quality. Smooth transitions. No chaos.

  • The music’s loud, the crowd gets around every lifter, and even your competitors are shouting support when you hit the platform.

2. First Time? You’re in Good Hands

  • Sarah and Francesco — the team behind Catalano Events — go out of their way to make new lifters feel welcome.

  • You’ll get a clear briefing on judging expectations and how the day runs, and you’ll never be left wondering what to do next.

  • Their energy, smiles, and support set the tone for the entire event.

3. Problems? Solved Before You Even Notice

  • Every meet has hiccups. What separates Catalano is how fast they fix things.

  • Where other meets stall for hours, Catalano handles it in seconds — and the show goes on.

4. Staff Are Treated Like Pros — And It Shows

  • From water and energy drinks to full meals and snacks, every volunteer and crew member is looked after.

  • When the team feels appreciated, it creates a better atmosphere for everyone — including lifters.

5. Livestream Like No Other — With Me on the Mic

  • The livestream is next-level — crisp camera work, great audio, and pro-level quality.

  • Even better: I’ll be commentating on your lifts. So when you step on the platform, your performance gets the spotlight it deserves.

6. Fall Fury Is Coming — Be There

  • Catalano’s next big meet, Fall Fury, is coming up.

  • If you want to compete this year, this is the one to train for.

  • Just ask Olivia’s client, Nico. I handled him at the last meet, and he had an outstanding day. He’s a repeat Catalano lifter — and he’s not alone. The number of returning athletes says everything.

You train hard, and you deserve a meet that matches that effort. Catalano Events delivers—and I’ll be there to back you up. Let’s get you on the platform. Book a call with me or one of our coaches at www.masterathletic.com so we can hatch a plan and you can experience a Catalano event for yourself.
