Athletes to Watch
There is an ever-changing landscape in the Junior and Sub-Junior competitions as athletes move through the age classes and, often, weight categories. Two familiar faces will be absent this year: Zuzanna Kula and Sonja-Stefanie Krüger have both moved to the Open category after dominating the Junior division for years.


The Junior championships always bring new faces. Below are some of the most notable to watch:

• Emily Finnern — silver medallist at the Open Equipped World Championships
• Ivan Campano Diaz — silver medallist at the Open Classic World Championships
• Temur Samkharadze — junior world record holder in deadlift (385.5 kilograms / xx pounds)
• Erholove Izobodo-John — has been building a huge deadlift in prep for this meet
• Lystus Ebosele — looks set to break records in the 84+KG class
