Weightlifting Fiji is currently working on improving its eight lifters’ personal best for the World Junior Weightlifting Championship that starts on Saturday.

Weightlifting Coach Henry Elder says the focus for the athletes is exposure to the international standard of competition.

Elder says the players understand what is required of them and they are working according to their game plan on ways to cause some upsets during the tournament.

The World Junior Weightlifting Championship will start on Saturday at the FMF Gymnasium in Suva.
