1 week to go!!!! 😬

Next weekend, local lifters and city slickers will be heading out to beautiful Miles on the Western Downs in Queensland to compete in the unique event of Oly in the Outback. This event runs in conjunction with QWA State Masters Championships where hopefully some records will be broken.

We would like to acknowledge the generosity of our sponsors, without their support, these events can’t happen.
