That's a wrap on the
2018 Junior State Gymnastics Championships. Over the last 4 days, gymnasts from across Queensland have headed to Brisbane to compete against the best in the state for the State Champion Title.
This year, Delta Brisbane, Southport Gymnastics Club and Barron Valley Gymnastics Club had 124 girls and boys competing at the 4-day event.
While Junior State Championships is the final individual competition for the year for our level 3-6 gymnasts, it is always wonderful to see the teamwork and support on display on the competition floor. We love having our Barron Valley friends in town and the chance for our Brisbane, Southport and Cairns gymnasts to catch up and support each other on the competition floor!
Check out our Barron Valley and Southport Coaches Sergei and Sasha at the weekend's event below!
Our level 4-6 WAG and 3-5 MAG gymnasts have been training so hard in the lead up to this event. We are so proud of all of the kids who competed. We hope the gymnasts all enjoyed performing and learnt something from competing at a State level. For a young group of competitors, the confidence and teamwork displayed was fantastic!
Thanks as always to our amazing coaches and to the parents who do so much to allow our Aspire gymnasts to get out there and do what they love!
A big shout out to our newest State Champions... Congratulation Bronte, Airi and Eleanor!
Our coaches on the floor have given us an awesome run down of events. Check out the pics, results and all of the action from this year's Junior State Championships below!
