Abidh Jameel Represents Sri Lanka at the Commonwealth Stage 

Review by Muhammed Jameel (Web Content Team) 

The Commonwealth Weightlifting Youth, Junior, and Senior Championship 2024 took place from September 17th to 21st in Suva, Fiji, featuring over 300 athletes from 30+ Commonwealth nations. 

Abidh Jameel, a former Senior Prefect, Ryde Gold Medalist, and Lionsman, was selected to represent Sri Lanka in the Junior (Under 20) category, competing in the 96kg weight class. He earned this opportunity following his outstanding performance at the 2023 National Youth, Junior, and Senior Weightlifting Meet in Polonnaruwa. 

In the Snatch event, Abidh successfully lifted 90kg and 97kg in his first two attempts, but his third attempt at 103kg was unsuccessful as he couldn’t secure the bar overhead. In the Clean and Jerk, he lifted 120kg and 125kg successfully. His final attempt at 130kg saw him complete the Clean but fail to finish the Jerk due to a brief blackout. 

Abidh’s combined total of 222kg placed him 4th in the fiercely competitive 96kg category. 

The Trinity community warmly congratulates Abidh on this impressive achievement and extends its best wishes as he continues to strive for excellence. His participation highlights the progress of Trinity Weightlifting on the international stage.
