The 2011 Gold Cup
The lifting at this year's Gold Cup was outstanding, the list of different lifts attempted was both varied
and very interesting to witness. During the day we were treated to several attempts on lifts that were
in fact the heaviest ever done in any weight class on those particular disciplines. Junior lifter: Emily
Myers (from the USA) at 19 years old, was the youngest competitor, whilst Frank Allen from England,
William Wright from Scotland and Denny Habecker from the USA were the most senior competitors, all
at 69 years young. After the lifting, the banquet dinner was held at Branston Golf and Country Club,
where everyone had a wonderful time, and Steve and Karen Gardner were assisted at the presentation
by their Grand Son: 5 years old Dominic, who made a good job of shaking everyones hand, and when
Paula asked if she could have a kiss, he simply replied 'No' with no expression at all (give him a few
years Lol!)

The IAWA (UK) Hall of Fame 2011 Induction
The IAWA(UK) HOF bi- annual Induction ceremony was carried out at the Awards Banquet at Branston
Golf and Country Club, following the presentation for the Gold Cup. Inductees were: Sam Hills (awards
presented by Frank Allen and Steve Gardner) and Steve Sherwood (awards presented by Steve
Andrews and Steve Gardner). Steve Sherwood from Hull in Yorkshire has been a great ambassador for
all round lifting, and was coached by the late Harold Akrill, and trained with Clive Nevis. Many times
British and IAWA World Champion, Steve has always been a master technician on the lifts, and his one
hand deadlift record of 200 kilos at 70 kilos bodyweight has stood for many years. Sam Hills from
Hastings in East Sussex has been trained by the great Mike Archer (inducted member). Sam has been
a great supporter of all round weightlifting, and counts amongst his favourite moments in the sport, as
being presented with the award for being the overall best lifter at the IAWA World Championships in
Australia.
