Team has momentum in titles
A TEAM from Atherton’s Momentum travelled down to Brisbane last week to contest the Gymnastics Queensland Junior State Championships in Brisbane.
The championships, which run from 14-18 September, is considered to be the premier event for the sport, and it is a credit to the young gymnasts who have made the qualification score to be eligible to attend.
This year the club will be represented over the five-day tournament by Estelle Turner in the Level 4 Under 9 Division; Matilda Landsberg and Paulina Rocca in Level 4 Under 10; Eden O’Brien and Lilly Johnson in Level 4 Under 11; Gabrielle Rohde in Level 5 Under 10; Aubree Kennedy in Level 5 Under 11; and Brooke Paul and Tahlia Huth in the Level 5 Under 12 division.
The club also has representation in the Regional Team challenge on the last day of competition with three of its Level 5 team members qualifying for selection.
Brooke, Gabrielle and Tahlia qualified for the team at Far North Queensland regional championships where they had to be the top six scores in their division. This is a first for the club having three members in the one program.
