2024 QWA Annual Report

Progress, Resilience, and Purpose

The Queensland Weightlifting Association is proud to present the 2024 Annual Report — a reflection on a year marked by both achievement and resilience. While the past year brought its share of challenges, including reduced government funding, the strength of our community and clarity of our vision ensured we continued to move forward.

This report captures the key milestones of 2024: the growth of our athlete base, the delivery of high-quality competitions across the state, and the steady progress in coaching, officiating, and grassroots development. It also highlights how strategic tools like the GovernRight platform helped guide our governance and planning through uncertain times.

Most importantly, it celebrates the people who power our sport — from athletes excelling on the platform, to volunteers, officials, coaches, and clubs working tirelessly behind the scenes.

We invite you to explore this year’s report and join us in recognising the commitment, effort, and passion that continue to shape the future of weightlifting in Queensland.
