Laurel Hubbard (born 1978) is a New Zealand transgender weightlifter.

Competing before her gender transition under the name Gavin Hubbard, Hubbard set New Zealand junior records in 1998 in the newly established M105+ division with snatch 135 kg, clean & jerk 170 kg, total 300 kg
In 2012 Hubbard was appointed to the position of Executive Officer for Olympic Weightlifting New Zealand.
Subsequently she transitioned to female and became Laurel Hubbard.

The world has gone insane. Not only is society allowing this person - Laurel Hubbard - who couldn't make the Olympics in 35 years of living as a man potentially win a medal as a 43-year old woman, a judge also refused to let the press publish details about a reckless driving case she was involved in so she could train for the Olympics without distraction.

"Hubbard’s best total in qualifying is 285 kilograms, which puts her very much in the reckoning for a place on the podium in the women’s super-heavyweights in Tokyo."

"In a rare move, the judge also suppressed Hubbard's name until September 30, so Hubbard could train for qualifying events for the Olympics without the distress caused by social media comments responding to publicity about the charge. "
