Evian World Cup
Last week B.G.'s own Emily Smith was in Evian, France representing Team Canada at the Evian World Cup for Trampoline and Tumbling.
She placed 6th in a very strong final which included the top 3 women from the most recent World Championships! In finals, Emily competed a new tumbling pass that helped her set a New Canadian Women's Difficulty Record!
This top 8 finish has also guaranteed Emily a spot in this fall's World Cup Final in Togliati, Russia. Only the top 8 ranked athletes on the World Ranking List are invited to attend this competition!
Congratulations Emily!

Summer Schedule
Hi Everyone!
I attempted to upload the Summer Schedule this evening. However, I am not that computer savy and was unable to format it properly. Your schedule will be distributed to your child over the next couple days via Chris, Nick or Andree.
Please note that some minor changes have been made to the Provincial groups to allow for more specific skill development and to ensure we are helping the families that carpool. The National groups saw minimal to no changes due to the fact that Canada Cup is in the middle of the summer season.
Also, please remember that the mandatory 2 week shut down is being divided into 2 parts this summer. We will be taking a week and a half off following Canada Cup (July 23 to August 3) and then another long weekend from August 28-September 2nd.
Have a terrific week! I will update you all on Emily's performance!
