About Us
PASF Iron Sports Division (PASFIS) is organized to promote physical fitness and health maintenance through the Iron Sports; Olympic Weightlifting, Powerlifting, Body Building & Strongman Competitions throughout the Americas.
PASFIS was originally an entity of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) dating back to the 1940’s. The AAU discontinued its Irons Sports Division, including the “Mr. America” Body Building Championship in 1999. The then Director of the AAU Iron Sports Division and Iron Sports Hall of Famer, Robert “Bob” Crist, Sr., spearheaded the effort to keep amateur Iron Sports, drug-free and all-natural and thus the PASFIS (formerly North American Sport Federation – Iron Sports) was created.
Our mission is to promote a better understanding of Drug-Free/All-Natural Iron Sports and the lifelong benefits of maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle through our free educational programs, seminars, personal training and sanctioned amateur competitions.
