3rd Provincial Qualifier Results

This weekend saw the conclusion of the Provincial Qualifying events for the Men's Artistic Gymnasts from the Tumblers Gymnastics Centre of Orleans.  The season has gone well for our male gymnasts who range in age from 8 years to 19. This final qualifier competition, which took place in Burlington, comes just two weeks before the Provincial Championships in Windsor, ON on April 4-7.  

With this event out of the way these gymnasts will return home to spend then next practices fine tuning their routines for the big event.  For the boys in the Level 3 and 4 categories, these championships will represent the opportunity to not only try for a Provincial title but the opportunity to represent Ontario at the Eastern Canadian Championships in St. John's, NL on May 9-11.  For the four gymnasts in the National Open and Youth categories, the Provincial Championships will also mean the opportunity to qualify for the Canadian Championships, which will be held this year in Ottawa May 17-25.
