Powerlifting SA is a competitive sporting club in Adelaide, South Australia. It is the South Australian Drug Free Powerlifting Association (SADFPA), and its primary focus is on natural ability and fair competition in a drug-free environment.

Powerlifting SA organises four competitions each year in South Australia, competing at both state and national levels. The club welcomes men and women aged 14 and above to participate in their events and training sessions. In 2007, the club relocated from Adelaide to Barmera in the Riverland of South Australia.

Membership is open to individuals of all genders and ages, starting from 14 years old. The current annual membership fee is $85 for senior members and $50 for juniors and concession members. All SADFPA members are welcome to attend committee meetings, but voting rights on the SADFPA Committee are reserved for committee members. New members must participate in one competition before being eligible to set state records, and they may be required to undergo a drug test.
