Twelve-strong Island team heading to New Zealand this month
This month will see a historic occasion for the sport of powerlifting on the Isle of Man.
Manx Powerlifting is set to take part in the Commonwealth Powerlifting Championships in Auckland, New Zealand from 28 November to 4 December.
It'll be the first time the Island has ever put forward an international team in the sport after being formed only a year ago.
Two of the Island's team members, Lisa Grant and Jo Corr, are very much looking forward to the experience:
CoMin making 'significant and determined efforts' to implement recommendations from Ranson review
Rain events 'difficult to forecast' on the Isle of Man
Planning permission granted for 26 industrial units
Port St Mary Commissioners urging residents not to 'struggle in silence'
