Grades.
We are proud of our three National Level athletes for achieving the scores that they needed to pass grades to gold level and qualify for NDP Finals.
We are so proud of Amelie for coming 4th in London regional grades after a one unlucky routine at grades last year that saw her missing the pass mark by just 0.2. After a strong season and lots of medals at level 3 we are glad that this year she will have her chance to shine at a higher level. She had strong performances on all three apparatus and we are excited for what is to come.
Athanasia had a serious hip injury in the weeks leading up to grades and London Open and was not training to her full capacity. Despite this she showed consistency and determination and secured the pass mark for a second year running after a successful first season competing at National Level. We have high hopes for her this year.
Kvitka is one of the most hard working girls in our team. After joining us 6 months ago she has worked hard to learn new routines, improve her flexibility and skills with apparatus and has passed grades on her first attempt. We are happy for her and look forward to her first season as a national level athlete.
Congratulations to all our girls and coaches for all the hard work that they have put in to achieve these results
LONDON
SPRING OPEN
Well done to all of our gymnasts who competed in the London Spring Open over the weekend. There is lots to work on in the lead up to grades, but the girls have done brilliantly performing updated routines with more difficulty.
