Congratulations to the Oakville Gymnastics Club’s three tumblers who earned spots on the Canadian Team.  These three top tumblers will go to the 2017 World Age Group Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria this fall.

Ben Rykba was the top boy in the 15-16 Men’s Tumbling division and one of only two boys in Canada to meet the high standards for difficulty and execution in tumbling. Emilly Harrison and Helen Dong both secured themselves spots on the Canadian Age Group Team in the 13-14 Girls Tumbling division.  Both Emily and Helen worked to increase their degree of difficulty this season to reach their goals of making the Canadian Team.

Good luck to the OGC Tumblers as they prepare for the largest and most prestigious tumbling event on the planet.  World Age Group Championships is the most well attended event for tumblers hosted by the International Gymnastics Federation and is where the world’s superstars first step out on the world stage.  This will be a very exciting competition for our young Oakville athletes.

Congratulations to the OGC Tumbling coaches as they also captured a Team Coach position for this event.
