Dear Friends,
Attached you will find the latest fixtures for the upcoming League Tournaments. Last year once the pandemic started the OWF in order to keep athletes in shape and continue to train regularly initiated a League Tournament with 140 lifters competing every month and AUD$48,000 prize money.
The tournament ran for eight months and it was extraordinarily successful. It produced some world class performances.
This year, due to the success of last years League Tournament, we have decided to inject a total of AUD$80,000 prize money distributed amongst three leagues.
Premiers League includes eight teams. They are Papua New Guinea, Nauru, Solomon Islands, Kiribati, Australia, Fiji, Samoa, New Zealand.
League A includes seven teams. They are Guam, Northern Marianas-CNMI, Tahiti, Marshall Islands, Cook Islands, Tonga, New Caledonia.
League B includes five teams. They are Palau, Niue, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, American Samoa.
The first round for the Premiers League and League A starts on June 4th & 5th. Whilst League B will commence on July 2nd & 3rd.
I wish every team great results throughout the tournament.
Kindest regards,
Paul Coffa MBE
General Secretary
