W&M Men’s Gymnastics reinstated

The men’s gymnastics team has been reinstated at W&M at least through 2021-22 — the university will reset its process to determine long-term sustainability for the athletic department.

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone that sent emails, wrote letters, pledged, called, etc.

We are THRILLED that both of our teams have been reinstated, but we still need YOU. The support from our community has never been more important, and will be crucial to the long term success for both of our programs.

November 8, 2020.

Instead of representing their countries, Uchimura and others compete on one of two teams – team “Friendship” or team “Solidarity” – in a showcase of international camaraderie.

Pak deductions

I love a great Pak.

Especially those landing on the low Bar close to handstand.

I recall watching Brittany Rogers and Maddie Copiak training together. Both tall. Both launching Pak as high as they could.

Amazing.

Therefore it wouldn’t be named for Pakhniuk.

We are acutely aware of the immense financial pressure many clubs will be under …

As with the first lockdown, we’ll support clubs in accessing financial support, grants and the furlough scheme. …

British Gymnastics

Club close as of Nov. 5th. Elite training can continue.

Hopefully clubs can reopen Dec. 2nd.

There are many other clubs around the world shut down. Winnipeg, Manitoba in Canada, for example, is shut down again for a month.

That’s a shame as Gymnastics clubs seem to be one of the safest spaces for kids during this pandemic.
