How can I participate in the Olympics weightlifting when I am not part of any club or federation?
If you are not part of a club or federation, it is still possible to participate in the Olympics weightlifting. However, you will need to meet certain requirements and follow a specific process.
First, you will need to obtain a qualifying score at a recognized international weightlifting competition. This score must be within the top 10% of all scores in your weight class.
Once you have obtained a qualifying score, you will need to register with the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF). The IWF will then issue you with an ID card, which will allow you to compete in international weightlifting competitions.
To be eligible to compete in the Olympics, you must be a citizen of the country you are representing. You must also be at least 18 years old on the date of the competition.
If you meet all of the requirements, you can then submit an application to the IWF to participate in the Olympics. The IWF will review your application and determine whether you are eligible to compete.
