Kim Camilleri Lagana was the first of the three youth Maltese athletes to compete at the European Youth Weightlifting Championships in Poland on Friday.
The 13-year-old Camilleri Lagana was one of the youngest to compete in the 40kg U15 category, but still managed to finish in a commendable seventh place.
The Maltese young lifter managed to finish ahead of lifters from Slovakia and Poland.
Camilleri Lagana had a close fight with the Ukrainian athlete, but unfortunately did not manage to surpass her in the end.
