NWL runs a "School Centre of Weight Lifting" scheme, where active school clubs are loaned equipment, and offered advice and coaching, in return for entering lifters in our competitions. We have a Schools' Weightlifting Championship each year, plus school age lifters at Junior (Under 20), Under 23, and even Senior (i.e. open age) competitions. The best of our young lifters go on to the British Schools' Weightlifting Championships.
