Talia busts out a Men’s Floor routine in training. … Her teammates fear she’s forgotten the stupid faux body wave (compulsory) before the last pass. 🙂

That was linked in an excellent Arabian Punch Front interview where Talia talks Worlds, Aly, hockey and her future College team Michigan.

Not to be confused with English Espoir Championships. 🙂

1 64.800 – Georgia-Mae Fenton (Europa)
2 64.000 – Catherine Lyons (Europa)
3 62.350 – Teal Grindle (Sapphire)
4 62.100 – Louise McColgan (Largs)

all results on Full Twist

Georgia-Mae even scored higher on “Range and Conditioning” than Catherine. That’s impressive.

… The girls in the Espoir level age ranges from twelve to thirteen.

The girls who are turning twelve this year are not eligible for Rio 2016, but the thirteen-year-olds will be eligible. This weekend the girls will only be doing the all-around competition.

… this meet is also a qualification round for the event finals which will take place next week at Liverpool’s Echo Arena where the Junior and Senior championships will take place (that must drive the coaches crazy!). …

#ProGymnastics

Check out International Gymnastics Camp‘s PIT.

A nice interface for seeing gymnastics news links from around the world. This site is contributing.

They have a similar feed for Camp news. And Pro Gym Challenge news.

USA Male gymnasts. And USA female gymnasts.

Also, social media from female international gymnasts. And foreign male gymnasts.

Or … perhaps your preference is College gymnastics news.

Very cool.

I predict we’ll see many more pages like those in future.
