Emma Takapi NZ Powerlifter Fund

At the NZ Raw Powerlifting Championships in July Emma took 4 NZ Records in the Sub Junior 84+ kg class: Best Squat, Bench Press, Deadlift and Total Lift. Emma received an award for Best Overall Sub Junior Female, and the Most Promising Powerlifter Trophy.

Emma has been selected to represent New Zealand at the 2015 Commonwealth Powerlifting and Benchpress Championships in Vancouver 30 Nov - 5 Dec.

This is an amazing opportunity for Emma, and her only chance to compete in the Bi Annual event as a Sub Junior.

Emma is an amazing,talented young woman with tremendous potential who NZ can be very proud to have represent them.

As athletes pay their own way - flights, accommodation, entry fees and equipment etc. all donations, no matter how big or small, we are extremely grateful for.

I am the proud mother of this very talented young woman.
