British Weight Lifting support Trinidad And Tobago Olympic Weightlifting Federation

British Weight Lifting were delighted to support The Trinidad And Tobago Olympic Weightlifting Federation with their Brighter Futures project in partnership with Zodiac Arts.

The project which has been successful competed saw the planning and delivery of a Level 2 British Weightlifting course to a small group of learners.

This was the first time a British weightlifting accredited qualification has ever been delivered in Trinidad and Tobago. This initiative sees Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Weightlifting Federation (TTOWF) commissioning Zodiac Arts a registered globe charitable company working in partnership with British weightlifting (BWL) alongside the huge support and generosity from the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) to facilitate this project.

The course ran over two days with all participants showing enthusiasm and an eagerness to learn.

The aim and objectives of the course was to develop the learner’s ability to perform safe Olympic weightlifting techniques, as well as delivering an appropriate warm -up and cool down session with the understanding of the rationale for this. Also included is a health and safety component of effectively checking their environment is safe for themselves and others before lifting.

At the completion of the course the learners will have a credited level 2 vocational qualification that could lead onto the BWL pathway of-them eventually becoming a British weightlifting coach.
