Olympic Talk

Trampoline is one of Canada’s best Olympic sports. WAG finished 5th in London, a best ever performance. With a lot of depth in the run up to Worlds 2015 and (if needed) Olympic Test Meet 2016, I’d say WAG has a good shot at qualifying as a Team.

… Ablyazin, Bielawski, Garibova?

– Many ill with the flu, but the overall mood in the team is good.

Of the strongest in Penza not perform Emin Garibov and Alexander Balandin. All the rest – in the ranks. Garibov is still recovering from its complex operations, and Balandin though started training yet can not operate at full capacity.
