It was "March madness" for the provincial level Bowen Island Gymnastics team.
The first week of March put the pressure on many of our senior gymnasts as they had to compete in the Surrey Invitational on March 2, zone 5 trials for BC Provincial Championships on March 5 and then the 2012 BC High School Gymnastics Championships on March 8 and 9.
This exhausting week of competing yielded outstanding results for our gymnasts.
Aria Willis competed extremely well at the Surrey Invitational, beating out 38 other gymnasts from B.C. and Alberta to walk away with the bronze medal on floor.
Zone 5 trials resulted in a record number of Bowen Island Gymnasts to qualify for the 2012 BC Provincial Gymnastics Championships in North Vancouver on April 13.
Congratulations to Chelsea Hillhouse (second all around novice), Katie Brougham (eighth all around novice), Callie Brougham (third all around open),Ashley Murphy (fourth all around open) and Maia Blomberg who beat out some tough competition to qualify for BC Provincial Gymnastics Championships.
The spring session for BIGC Recreational Gymnastic classes for gymnasts ages: 12 months to 13 years starts up Friday, March 30. Please contact BIGC registrar Karen Shea at: [email protected] for registration information.
