Just thought I'd share!!!

Coach Deg · 07-06-2012, 12:47 PM

Some of you know, I am a high school coach(hence the name). I have a girl on my weightlifting team who just won her second National Youth Weightlifting title. With that we got an invite out to Colorado Springs to the US Olympic Training Facility for a youth development camp. My lifter has also qualified to compete for the US at the youth worlds in Russia. If anyone is interested she weighs 61K(135lb) snatches 69K(152lb) and Clean and Jerks 91k(200lb).

I'm pretty excited and just wanted to share.

Congrats on the title and the invite to US Olympic Training Center. This is a good deal as the OTC offers some great training opportunities, information, resources and coaching assistance.

You are absolutely right. Even though I have been doing this a long time, I am always trying to find new ways to improve. And there is now better resource then the OTC. The knowledge and connections I will gain will be priceless moving forward.
