Rebels Weightlifting Club Named QWA New Club of the Year
We’re incredibly proud to share that Rebels Weightlifting Club has been named New Club of the Year at the Queensland Weightlifting Association (QWA) Awards, held on Saturday, 17 January.
In just 18 months, Rebels Weightlifting Club has grown into something truly special. What started as a new club has quickly become a hub for athletes, coaches, and volunteers who are passionate about strengthening the future of weightlifting in Queensland.
Over the past year, we’ve had the privilege of:
- Hosting major QWA competitions and events
- Delivering volunteer and official development workshops
- Collaborating with fellow clubs to launch the Stronger Futures Cup
Every initiative has been driven by one core goal: to give back to the sport and the people who make it great.
This award is especially meaningful because it reflects the strength of our community. Our athletes who train with intent, the coaches who lead with purpose, the volunteers and officials who give their time, and the supporters who show up and believe in what we’re building — this recognition belongs to all of you.
Thank you for trusting in the Rebels vision and being part of the journey. We’re only just getting started, and the future is looking strong. 💙💪
