Kia ora and welcome to Wellington Weightlifting Association. We are affiliated to Olympic Weightlifting New Zealand (OWNZ). We are one of the oldest weightlifting organisations and can trace our history back to 1950. It's fair to say we know what we are doing!

Our lifters train at various gyms in the Wellington area. These gyms are Dynamics gym, Weltec, Petone and Powerhouse Gym in the CBD. We have school lifters currently competing from various schools in Wellington. These schools are Wellington High School, Hutt Valley High and Aotea College. We hope to develop school lifting further by introducing the sport to other schools in Wellington.

We run competitions once a month as part of the Olympic Weightlifting New Zealand Champions League. Please check the 2016 calendar on the Wellington calendar tab above for more details on this years competitions.

Powerhouse gym trainings are throughout the week from 5.00 - 8.00 pm.

Dynamics gym training sessions are typically Tuesday and Thursday at 12:00 and 4:00. Monday - Friday  lunchtimes (12:00 - 1:00) and Saturday mornings (10:00 - 12:00) in B block.
