Back in the day, the Macho Meet boys competition in Lethbridge was the most popular meet of the year in my region. Great FUN for the gymnasts and coaches both. It was founded by Dan Niehaus, now Head Coach of Cirque du Soleil’s LOVE in Vegas.
Thanks to Westwinds and coach John Tram for putting together the 2009 edition.
At late season competitions like this, clubs bring NEW gymnasts to compete for the first time. This young man joined our competitive team only a couple of months ago.
He was happy with how he did in his first gymnastics competition.
Coach David Sykes brought a crew of gymnasts to this meet, the first competition ever for a new competitive boys program out of Salta Gymnastics in Medicine Hat. We talked about how much more welcoming competitive Men’s gymnastics is for beginners than WAG.
Here’s the winner of the “Crazy Hair” competition. He deserved the victory.
