The 4th international Fajr Cup 2019 runs from 1st – 5th of March. The Fajr Cup is a silver-level Olympic qualification event with a 5% Robi point bonus (see our Olympic qualification guide for why this matters)
As with many international cup level competitions results are hard to come by. Weightlifting House is working alongside Iran Weightlifting to help release results as quickly as possible.
Below are the current results for the 4th International Fajr Cup in Tehran, Iran.
