Disa,

Welcome to being a meet director. You never make everyone happy. Just do your best and if you do that you have to know that the other 30-50 lifters at your meet enjoyed themselves even if they didn't come out and tell you.

Just one comment:

I am not a USAPL member so my opinion is a little moot in this but this sport is too small to be turning away lifters who have a slight physical handicap and want to lift anyways!

We need to be inclusive not exclusive... you're not taking drugs? Great! We'ld love to have you at our meets.
