As we approach the end of this year the IL WSO needs your help for 2025. 

The Illinois State WSO Championship meet is the cornerstone meet in our area and it can only happen with the support of our weightlifting community.  Annually, the IL WSO board solicits bids from area clubs to host the meet in conjunction with the IL WSO.  Please review the document for details on host responsibilities and selection criteria.    Hosting this meet is a great way to connect with the community and gain visibility for your business. 

If you are interested in hosting the 2025 event,  please reply illinoisweightlifting@gmail.com by October 04, 2025 outlining the details of your proposal.  If you have any questions on the bid process, do not hesitate to ask.

If you have any questions on anything weightlifting related in Illinois, do not hesitate to contact any member of the IL WSO board.   Contact information and additional information about the IL WSO can be found on the Illinois Weightlifting website.

SIncerely, The IL WSO Board
