Island Games Women Gymnasts Announced

June 3, 2013

Head Coach of Bermuda’s National Gymnastics Team Duke Nelligan today [June 3] announced the 2013 NatWest Island Games Women’s Gymnastics Team.

Eight gymnasts age 13-16 were selected based on their performance in several meets earlier this year, as well as the results of last weekend’s Island Games Trial. FIG Brevet Judge Carole Ide visited the island to score the girls on the 8 routines that they will be competing in July.

The gymnasts will compete in three events in the NatWest Games: the team competition on Sunday, July 14, the FIG all-around competition on Tuesday, July 16, and the Set individual event competition on Thursday, July 18.

The National Training Center in St. Davids will host the meets, with gymnasts coming in from Aland, Cayman, Jersey, Isle of Man, Ynys Mon, and Faroe.

The lineup for the competitions — five participants in the team event, and six participants on each event in the FIG and Set — will be determined over the next 5 weeks of training.

The 2013 NatWest Island Games Women’s Gymnastics Team is as follows:

  • Tabytha Hofheins, 15, Warwick Academy
  • Gabby Vincent, 15, Warwick
  • Sydney Mason, 15, Bermuda High School
  • Zantae Dill, 15 Saltus
  • Danielle Wall, 13, BHS
  • Clara James, 13, BHS
  • Samantha Soares, 13, Warwick
  • Sadia Wilson, 13, BHS

There is also a Men’s Gymnastics Event at the NatWest Island Games. The Bermuda Men’s Team will be announced shortly.
