Bucks County Apparatus Competition

July 13th, 2010 1 comment

Firstly I would like to congratulate all the gymnasts who competed on Sunday in the four piece apparatus competition. You all did extremely well to compete across 3 to 4 pieces, especially with regards to the time you have to train in the gym and all your coaches are very proud of your achievements.

Level 8 Boys got Gold by a staggering 9 points and Jordan Mackay got Gold on both the Vault and the P Bars, stepping in on vault for Sean who was suffering with an injury on the day. Oliver Hurrell got Gold on the High Bar and all the scores were high right across the board for our boys, taking Gold in Vault, P Bars and H Bar. A special mention must be made for Dylan who got Bronze alongside Sean on the floor and put in his back flic for the first time!

 

Level 8 Girls missed out on Silver by .85 across all four pieces getting Bronze and Gold by 2 marks, so a fierce competition. Rebecca got Silver on the beam, Lauren Silver on the vault and Maia Bronze on the vault, and they got Gold overall on Vault.

Level 7 Girls got Gold overall and Gold for both Bars and Beam, with Bronwyn taking individual Gold on the Bars and Kara taking Gold on the Beam.

Level 6 Girls (12 – 14) got Silver in a very close competition. They took Gold on the Floor, with Heather getting Gold overall on this piece with 16.50 out of a possible 17.50! Harriet also got Gold on the beam gaining valuable extra points by taking the hard option of sumi dismount!

Level 6 Girls (15+) got Silver and all performed well on the day. Ellie got individual bronze on floor and silver on beam with a sumi dismount, while Diane got bronze on bars. Hattie stepped into the breach after Honor was injured in training the day before and competed on bars coming 4th plus a special mention must be made to Alicia who had to compete on all four pieces and only took on the bars routine the previous week.

A heartfelt BIG WELL DONE TO EVERYBODY

Kate, Jo and Serena
