March Open Championships 2025
We had 4 athletes representing team AFK at the March Championships.
Christy made her first appearance since the 2024 British Championships and secured her first ever 1st place finish 🥇

Hazel also lifted in the morning session. After a shakey start, missing her first squat, she went on to absolutely smash it out of the park. Hazel got PBs on every lift and a total PB and an 8/9 day.

Usually a bench only athlete Harry made his debut as a full power lifter. Harry finished the day with a PB in every lift and a new total PB.

Obi was the final AFK athlete on the platform. Making his first appearance since he brought home a stack of medals at the commonwealth in summer. In his first outing as a junior, Obi managed to gather up PBs across the board and bag himself a silver medal in the open. 🥈

Congratulations to all the lifters for their amazing performances.

The athletes were supported by a huge number of AFK members handling them, working the platform and table, and reffing. Huge thank you to the whole team for their incredible support of the lifters and the sport in general.

Well done everyone that contributed to this amazing competition, and thank you to for another brilliant event.

17/01/2025

We are currently receiving a lot of requests for day passes.
We love having guests and will go out of our way to accommodate lifters where possible.

AFK is a private facility catering for Team AFK, and when possible, the wider powerlifting community.
As a team, we strive to provide support to all lifters, but we have a duty of care to provide a safe training environment to our own team. Several of whom are very young.
As such, please be aware that while we do offer day passes, we have a strict policy on allowing entry.

▪️We do not charge members of British Powerlifting or affiliated IPF nations for day passes.

▪️As this is a private facility, day passes must be prearranged. We do not allow walk-ins.

▪️Passes will be arranged on a first come, first served basis. However, priority will initially be given to members, followed by members, and then any IPF affiliated members.

▪️Free passes are limited to 2 per month to a total of 12 per year.
Please speak to us if you require a different arrangement. We are very accommodating when possible.

▪️Gym times will be dependent on coaches and team members, especially when this occurs outside opening hours and training sessions.

▪️All lifters must be respectful towards trainers, lifters, and any other guests. They must also treat all kit with care and respect. If you are unsure, please refer to the BP code of conduct.

Any requests, comments or complaints should be forwarded to the HC ._.clarke or .gym

Commonwealth Championships 2024
Sun City SA

2 AFK Athletes took to the platform to represent Tram England in the Full Power Classic Commonwealth Championship.

Initially, we had 3, but unfortunately, .lifts had to withdraw from her full power competition after competing in the bench press the day before 😢

It was on to represent the AFK sub-junior lifters. Obi did a great job on the day picking up a gold medal in the squat and holding on to second place through a nail-biting deadlift. Obi held his nerve and finished the competition as Vice Champion with the Silver medal 🥈

Next up was the turn of ._.clarke , who took to the platform on Tuesday fresh from competing in the bench on Friday and coaching her fellow England team members. Kate had a "terrible" competition trying to balance the glass back and illness. Even with a lower than usual performance, Kate still managed to secure squat gold, bench silver, and finished out the competition with an exhausted deadlift bronze. She managed to do enough to secure the overall 2nd place silver matching the winning total but losting out on body weight. A Commonwealth Champion and Vice Champion title in one week is incredibly impressive 🥇🥈

Congratulations to both our Vice Champions
We are hugely proud of you both.

Thank you to all our AFK team members who went out to SA to support these two and to everyone supporting at home.
A massive thank you to the English Coaching team .is.james .foran.64
