You can click through for scores. But this the youngest division has HUGE bonus points which make the actual numbers difficult to compare.

Following the competition I spoke with Canadian National Team Director Dave Brubaker. He was pleased with the quality and depth of young gymnasts across the country. The National Aspire training camps are helping. Plans are to expand that program and better detail the camp curriculum.

Quinn is a teammate of Isabela Onyshko in Brandon, population 46,061. Actually it’s 46,060 as Isabela lives out of town in Minnedosa, population 2,474. 🙂

Guatemala Age Group camp

This camp, hosted in Guatemala City, was unique in that it was the first one that combined an Olympic Solidarity technical course with the full content and focus of the FIG Age Group Programme for Artistic Gymnastics. Indeed, the entire development and world-wide dissemination of the age group programmes has been subsidised annually by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). …

Guatemala has had a surge of interest in Gymnastics with the success of 2012 and 2016 Olympian Ana Sofía Gómez. …

Myself and José Súcart were the experts for this one. We both agreed it was as good as any of the 5 day camps we’ve led.

The quality and variety of demonstrators at the Camp was a highlight. Some gymnasts are resident at the Gym, doing their schooling upstairs between training sessions.

Jorge Vega Lopez, Floor gold medalist at the 2015 Pan American Games, participated as a demonstrator. He was one of the first gymnasts to join the residential school.

Considering they have only 8-9 clubs in the entire nation, Guatemala is doing great things. Beam is particularly strong.

Canada Week at Woodward Pennsylvania

The Canadian Junior and Youth WAG National teams will be training at the Camp July 3-9, 2016. (week 5)

Cost for any Canadian for that week only is $849.00 US (reduced from 1,149.00 US). It’s a good chance for Canadian girls to meet and train with their National team. And meet Liliya Podkopayeva, 1995 World AA Champion.

If you’ve never been to one of the BIG Camps, I’d highly recommend it for at least one week at least once in your life.

Details on week 5.

Marta Karolyi’s last Camp

The five-day camp began Sunday, May 15, under the direction of national team coordinator Martha Karolyi. …

“It was a very successful camp, and everyone looks to be on the right track heading into the Olympic selection process,” said Karolyi. “I am very pleased with the high level of physical fitness and routine preparation demonstrated by our athletes.”
