Powerlifter in GB squad


Powerlifter in GB squad 7:37am Mon Oct 17, 2011 Paralympic powerlifter Natalie Blake is part of the Great Britain squad set to travel to the Middle East this week for the IPC Khorfakkan International Championship. Newark-based Blake, who owns and trains out of Affordable Fitness, Farrar Close, will be competing in the third edition of the annual tournament, attended by some of the world’s best powerlifters from October 15 to 19. Participants include 14 medallists from the Beijing Paralympics in 2008, and 21 who won medals at the 2010 World Championships in Malaysia. British weightlifting performance manager Fiona Lothian said: “This is a great chance for Natalie to get valuable experience of competing on the world stage. They will get to see what they potentially could be up against in London 2012.” Please note: If this is your first comment on the new system, you are required to verify your email address before your comment will appear. blog comments powered by Disqus To report an inappropriate reaction, please click this link		Posted by Liam Kennedy More Other Sport Stories Siblings to share bill First championship point Closing in on Games glory Fourth Paralympics for Blake Double champions Other Sport Stories Football Equal record finish for Blues despite loss Wheatsheaf win Willie Hall Cup Rugby Southwell on course for treble Sides prepare for the final push Cricket Early success for Balderton Newark R&M fall short Athletics Ripley puts in a treble-winning performance Personal bests fall at finals Angling Championship celebrations for Smith on gin-clear river Moraz leads way at charity match Boxing Ready for return to the ring Nationals progress secured Other Sport Siblings to share bill First championship point
