Acrobatic Gymnastics, Portugal

Next week Portugal hosts one of the biggest Acrobatics Gymnastics events ever, more than 400 athletes.

Two competitions held together at Maia, in the North of Portugal.

• Maia International Acro Cup 2012 (6th edition)
• Maia FIG Acro World Cup

Almost $15,000 prize money.

This is one of 3 World Cups, the other two to be hosted in Germany & Russia.

Acrobatic Gymnastics will be getting a big boost this summer. Britain’s Got Talent winners Spelbound will perform in the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony.

Thanks Lourenco Franca.
