2012 Elite Canada

Denis and Emily soared to victories at last weeks Elite Canada competition in Airdrie, Alberta.
Emily led easily after the preliminary round. In the final, she improved her score by over a point to win the women's title by a convicing 5 pt margin. Well done Em!
Katelyn was 3rd after day 1 due to a skill repetition on 1st pass. On day 2 she unfortunately made the same mistake but then cameback with a very strong 2nd pass which put her 4th less then 1 point out of second place.
Drake who was competing in his first National competition since 2003 had an ok day at the office. He competed 2 brand new passes and unfortunately had a fall on his twisting pass landing which cost his a spot in the men's final. He did however compete a great dbl layout in the middle of his pass for the first time and a full out straight dismount!
Denis lead day 1 with a season high score. In finals, he stayed consistent earning an almost identical score for 1st place and his first national victory since coming back to competitive sport in January 2011.
B.G.'s was also the only club to walk away from the event with 2 titles!
You can find video's of the great performances on the B.G.'s youtube page.

Pictures!

Dear friends and families

As a fellow mom of one of the athletes on the power tumbling team I would like to take the opportunity to inform everyone of a special event that will be taking place on Wednesday April 18,2012. I have taken the initiative to organize a team photo for the provincial and national power tumbling teams as well as the trampoline and double mini teams. This will be a great opportunity for all of our athletes to come together as a team and show their pride in their club.On April 18,2012, when your son or daughter comes to train please ensure they are wearing their competitive gym suit red competition suit) and bring their best smiles to show their team spirit ! Each discipline will be photographed as a team during their training time.

Looking forward to seeing you there with your shining stars
