The venue was...

...at the Latvia Olympic Sports Training Center!


In Riga, there were zero injuries and zero miss loading of the wrong weights...

It is important for the sportsman to know that they are SAFE! The entire meet structure was FIRST RATE!

Yes there were TWO platforms, the table staff of each platform did a great job.
