The 2018 Gold Cup is over and we look forward to next years event in Perth Australia. Reflecting on this years event, which was spectacular, and finished with 22 new IAWA World Record Holders, I cant help but think how lucky we are to have such great people amongst our numbers, an International family of All Round Weightlifters who come together and compete in a spirit of goodwill and ready to support one another without question…. and the result is some really fantastic lifting, just as it was yesterday. Everyone is so grateful to Paul Barette and Adrian Pryor for putting on this years Gold Cup, and what a superb event and banquet it was too. Thanks again to everyone who attended from wherever they had travelled, coming together to make it an unforgettable event,and what better fitting end than for Paul Barette to take the Howard Prechtel Award too with an outstanding Strict Bent Press, yes another super event, the 29th Gold Cup!!!
