The Guerriers Beyond Lifting youth team left Canada yesterday for Monterrey, Mexico to compete in the Christmas Cup. The competition, organized by the Weightlifting Association of the state of Nuevo Leon in conjunction with the State Institute of Physical Culture and Sports of Nuevo Leon, will take place on December 16, 17 and 18 at the facilities of the Weightlifting gymnasium of the Niño Héroes park.
Despite the fact that the team will represent Canada at this competition, the Canadian Weightlifting Federation did not manifest itself to support the initiative. In fact, it has been the club itself that has had to organize and fund the trip for the athletes and their parents.
The Guerriers Beyond Lifting club was invited by the weightlifting association of the state of Nuevo Leon A.C. to participate in the competition. The athletes who will compete are Sasha Millin, Daniela Millin, Emily Ibanez-Guerrero, Fiona Gervais, Ivy-Marie Buzinhani Brustello, Mirko Persico and Damien Persico. Ivy-Marie and Emily recently broke 5 Louis-cyr records at the Louis-Cyr tournament and are preparing for the 2023 youth world championship.
Brayan Ibanez-Guerrero is part of the team but will not compete as he is still recovering from an injury. The team is being coached by Abigail Guerrero and Ciro Ibanez.
The team made a stop in Cancún where coach Ibanez had prepared a boat trip during their 7 hour layover between flights to Monterrey.
We wish them good luck in the competition and look forward to hearing about their achievements at the competition.
