13.11.2009: Ščerbatihs coach disqualified
Viktors Ščerbatihs coach Eduards Andruškevičs has been disqualified by Latvian Weightlifting Clubs Association (LWCA) for six months from participation (as coach or delegate) in competitions organised by LWCA and competitions in which LWCA is represented.
Andruškevičs has been disqualified for entering weightlifters for participation in competitions without permission of LWCA.
The conflict originates from establishment of Latvian Weightlifting Federation (steered by Sčerbatihs and Andruškevičs) which puts claim to become the only recognized weightlifting federation in Latvia. Currently the only recognized one is LWCA.
