Oceania Weightlifting Championships 2000
The 18th Oceania Weightlifting Championships took place from May 11th to 13th, 2000 for the third time after 1993 and 1998 in the Republic of Nauru and were also considered to qualify for the 2000 Summer Olympics . The competitions were held in eight men's weight classes and seven women's weight classes. The better ranking was achieved by those who mastered the greatest load within a class; the hardest successful attempt was counted in each discipline. The best attempt of the two individual disciplines was rated for the duel . If several athletes lifted the same maximum load, the lighter athlete in terms of body weight was better placed.
