WELCOME
Welcome to the TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO POLE SPORT FEDERATION (TTPSF). We are the National Governing Body for the sport of Pole, dedicated to developing pole athletes, coaches and clubs across a range of disciplines – Sport, Artistic, Ultra and Para Pole.
The TTPSF is a not for profit organisation dedicated to positively promoting pole as an athletic sport. Run by voluntary members of the Trinidad and Tobago Pole community and created to foster the development of Pole throughout the nation, the TTPSF supports athletes, coaches, judges and enthusiasts to unify our sport.
The TTPSF is a proud member of the International Pole Sports Federation (IPSF) who governs pole internationally, by setting in place a structured competition, coaching and education format that has been accepted by international sport governing bodies. The IPSF has been awarded Observer member status of the Global Association of International Federations (GAISF), and are Signatories of the World Anti-Doping Association (WADA). The goal of the IPSF and the TTPSF is for the Olympic committee to recognise Pole as an official sport, and in turn eventually become part of the Olympic Games.

- Senior Women – 18-39 years
- Senior Men 18-39 years
- Male/Female Doubles – 18+
