Manon Poulin - Recipient of the 2024 WCHM Lifetime Achievement Award

 

Manon Poulin joined the Canadian Masters Weightlifters in its early days. Since becoming a member in 1999, Manon has been a strong presence on the national and international scene as one of our most admired ambassadors.

 

Not only is Manon an active member of Club Relève, Québec, but also its president and head coach since 2018. Manon has coached many masters weightlifters, helped organize several competitions (such as the 2006 Pan American Weightlifting Championships in St-Sauveur) and serves as an international technical official of Weightlifting Canada Haltérophilie.

 

However, Manon is primarily known for her success as a Masters Weightlifter. She has competed in fifteen Canadian Masters Championships, winning many golds as well as fifteen World Masters Championships. Her accomplishments have earned her three Hall of Fame Awards, from Weightlifting Canada Haltérophilie Masters, the Pan American Masters Weightlifting Federation, and the IMWA (International Masters Weightlifting Association).

 

Over her years with WCHM, Manon has broken 21 records (Snatch 8, Clean and Jerk 7, and Total 6). Manon was recently appointed, along with André Boutin, as the Quebec Representatives for WCHM and continues to be a very special person with the Canadian Masters. Congratulations, Manon Poulin. Your family at Weightlifting Canada Haltérophilie Masters is very proud of you and your accomplishments in our sport of Masters Weightlifting.
