Regional male and female athletes are invited to participate in the 2026 Shanley Weightlifting Meet on Saturday, February 21st, in the Shanley High School gymnasium. The meet will provide an opportunity for area athletes to showcase their talents. Experienced adult judges will be helping judge the squat, bench press, and power clean.
Lifters will compete in three lifts: the bench press, the squat, and the power clean. To enter the meet, use the online payment and registration to speed up the entry process. The cost for online registration is $35. Please, no day-of-the-meet entries this year, as they slow down the meet's start. Weigh-in for the event is from 8:00 am to 8:30 am in the high school gym. There will be a short meeting at 9:00, and lifting will begin after that. The meeting should conclude around 12:00–1:00 pm.
Lifters can win two ways in each weight class. Awards will go to the athletes who have the highest pound-per-pound strength in each weight class (top 3 will get awards), and one plaque to the highest weight lifted in each class (total pounds). An athlete can win two or more awards! Athletes will also compete against others in their grade, as we will give out awards for top weight lifted and top pound-for-pound in each class (7th grade, 8th grade, etc.), boys only. We will give out a grand champion trophy to the boy who lifts the most weight at the meet, and another one for the most pounds for pound. If we have more than one girls' division, we will do this as well. On the day of the meet, the nine boys' weight classes will be divided to create competition. The lifter does not gain a competitive advantage by losing weight before the weightlifting meet, because weight classes are not set until meet day.
Equipment Allowed:
Squat: Belts, wrist wraps and neoprene knee sleeves. (No knee wraps)
Bench Press: Wrist wraps and taping of the wrist are okay.
Cleans: Wrist wraps/taping wrist, neoprene knee sleeves and belts are okay. (No wrist straps)
Rules will be emailed out to you each week with new sign ups.
Interested lifters should contact their team coach or school strength coach. Individual competitors, small groups, and large competitive teams may attend from North Dakota, South Dakota & Minnesota schools. Lifters and coaches are encouraged to email their questions to Coach Anthony Carlquist at [email protected].
Spectators are welcome to come and cheer on the kids during the lifting, and may move around to take pics of the lifters. A coach (1-2) may be down with the kids during the lifting. Admission will be charged to fans at $5 for adults and $3 for students K-12.
