What a fun and exciting weekend we had at the GymSTART Floor & Vault Competition in the National Indoor Arena. None of our gymnasts taking part in this had ever competed in the National Arena before and we were thrilled to see such amazing performances from each one of them. They are a credit to themselves and their families and we are so proud of them.

The competition was extremely well organised and Colm brought great entertainment to the event!

Congratulations to all our gymnasts and to our podium placers :-

Aaron – 1st place

Alannah – 3rd place

Ella – 4th place

Some gymnasts were very unlucky to just miss out on a podium place while others achieved the highest score in their group on individual apparatus.

Thanks to the team for all their help over the weekend, to the gymnasts and parents, we hope you all enjoyed yourselves and we look forward to the next one!

Next up is the GymSTART Competition which takes place over the weekend in the National Indoor Arena. This competition is all about personal achievement, and should be lots of fun.

Best of luck to the Athlone participants – Aela, Aden, Alannah, Aoife, Ella, Isabella, Layla, Lexie and Rose and, the boys – Aaron and Malachy. Well done on the training preparations, we saw huge improvements in just a few short weeks and are always amazed by what can be achieved. We hope everyone enjoys the whole experience of the competition along with meeting gymnasts from other clubs and seeing all the action. We can’t wait to see all the performances on the day.

Thanks to the coaching team for making this happen and to the parents for encouraging and supporting their child to participate, in their already extremely busy schedules. Have a safe journey and enjoy the event!

We had amazing results from the recent National Series Competition and we are so proud of the gymnasts who took part with such a super positive attitude. The girls all totally supported each other throughout the competition and really cheered each other on. Some of these girls have only been training together for the past few months and have already formed such a close bond and lovely friendships and this was very evident throughout the competition.

Massive CONGRATULATIONS to all the girls on super performances and to the medal winners, well done :-

Laoise – SILVER ALL AROUND

Sarah – BRONZE ALL AROUND

Mya – GOLD – Floor

Lucy – GOLD – Vault (her very 1st Competition)

Thanks to Saoirse for Judging on the day and to coaches – Saoirse, Tara and Gráinne for looking after the gymnasts throughout the competition, they are super proud of their gymnasts’ achievements and are already looking forward to the next one!
