Our Story
FVW started in 2012, initially working from Stirling Uni and Crossfit Forth Valley. In 2014, the areas covered were expanded to include Crossfit Forth Valley (Grangemouth) and Grangemouth Stadium. This expanded again in 2015 to include Youth Classes at MXP in Stirling. During this period, the club became well established, and produced a number of lifters who competed for Scotland and at British Championships.
During the COVID epidemic, the club, like many others, found its facilities closed and its athletes at a standstill. The club membership waned and some as competitions were all stopped, many of the athletes we produced simply gave up.
With the ending of the epidemic, we started to rebuild, but access to a lot of the facilities had been lost (The Grange in Stirling Uni was closed, Crossfit Grangemouth closed, etc). We are now in the process of rebuilding, and for the first time since the epidemic, have a lifter at the British Senior Championships and a number of possible candidates for the national teams.
We are very excited for what lies ahead with the new partnership with uGym. It will be great to see the club flourishing again!
