Gymnastics Team To Compete In Trinidad
The Bermuda gymnastics community is preparing to send eighteen young gymnasts to its first ever Caribbean Gymnastics Championships [CGC] this weekend.
The competition, which has been held annually since 2015, welcomes more than 100 competitors from a number of Caribbean and associated countries.
CGC 2019 is hosted by Trinidad with a variety of events being held 14th-16th June. Athletes from Bermuda were recently selected from both the Bermuda Gymnastics Association and Quality Gymnastics to participate.
The optional girls’ team [USAG level 6-10] will compete on Friday and the compulsory girls’ team [USAG level 4&5] and the boys [USAG level4&5] will compete on Saturday.
“Bermuda is fortunate to have a number of talented young gymnasts who have been selected to represent the country as this event” said Julie Bortoli, a representative of the governing body for the sport of gymnastics.
“As Olympic Day approaches we are reminded that local talent exists in a number of sports in Bermuda and we are hopeful that someday these athletes will be representing Bermuda on a global stage.”
