1986 EFBB British Championships – Women

Wembley, London, UK

Held in the home of British bodybuilding at the Wembley Arena, England, this is the Women’s National EFBB (IFBB) Championships of Britain.  It was interesting to see that neither future Ms. Universe winner Bernie Price (1992) nor future Ms. Olympia competitor Kimberley Anne Jones made the winners’ podium.

This prestigious event is now a classic contest and witnessed the debut of the fantastic young DORIAN YATES in his first major contest appearance.
