We would like to thank Owen Boxall for coming down and showing his support, and Paul Schaffner and Matt Vine for helping us officiate the competition.

Here are the results!

Congratulations to Rhys for smashing his first competition too with full marks! Unfortunately Stanley hurt his hand on his second clean, but was awesome to watch as usual - we hope that you feel better now :)

Shout out to Taylor for putting up some seriously impressive numbers, coming in second on Sinclair score, and also to Silver, our Sinclair score winner. Silver, 13 years old, stood up a massive 60KG clean, after already hitting a 55kg C&J PB, he narrowly missed the jerk. We look forward to seeing that next time :)

apologies that we do not yet have the photos for group two but they will be added ASAP
