Dale Friez
was also honoured at the presentations afterwards with the USAWA Annual
'Courage Award'
Dale has suffered awful bad health for a number of years which would have seen
most hang up their lifting belt for good, but no matter what operation Dale has had
or how ill he has felt he has always lifted. Dale is convinced its the lifting thats kept
him going - good on ya Dale Friez!
The British Single Arm Championships Scheduled for 31st July at
Leicester have been cancelled. Frank Allen the promoter left it as long as
he could, but in the end had to make the decision to pull the plug as he had
hardly any entries for the competition. The Single Arm is usually a
reasonably well attended event, but circumstances have just transpired
this time to make it necessary to cancel the event. Promoters have to be
sure to have enough entries to be able to pay for the hire and use of the
facilities.

Southern Area (Open) Single Arm Championships - Sunday 22nd August
Nick Swain is going to run a Single Arm Competition at Scorpians Gym,
New Romney, Kent. If you would like to take part then ..
