2008 Oceania Weightlifting Championships

The 26th Oceania Championships in weightlifting ( English 2008 Oceania Senior Weightlifting Championships ) took place from March 27 to 30, 2008 in the New Zealand city of Auckland and were carried out in eight weight classes for men and seven classes for women. The better ranking is achieved by those who manage the greatest load within a weight class; the hardest successful attempt is counted in each discipline. For the duel , the best attempt of the two individual disciplines will be counted. If several athletes have lifted the same maximum load, the lighter athlete in terms of body weight is better placed.
