WAUNI continues to develop weightlifting in Ulster and N.I.

With the 2012 Olympics seeming like they are just around the corner, WAUNI, in partnership with IAWLA and the Irish Sports Council are continually promoting the sport and its development potential.

Investing in our athletes is always a top priority, which is why it gives our development officer great pleasure to be able to work with IAWLA's coaching and education officer to bring world class coaching to the province, and in addition congratulating our newest Category 2 international referee in the guise of Jim Kelly.
