Gymnastics
With Provincial Championships in April, Eastern Canadian Championships in May, and National Championships in June, LGA gymnasts are making a big push for their strongest finish ever! Coaches JP and Jen Kraemer are very proud of the progress shown by their athletes this season so far. Team LGA gymnasts have had great showings this season with all athletes currently ranked in the top 20 in their categories and divisions.
Especially important was their international event in Cancun, Mexico on January 15-20. LGA had a strong showing against a field with teams from USA, Mexico, Venezuela, and Canada. In level 7, the team of Vanessa Gunnell, Lynton Lam, and Alena Beniamin took bronze; in level 9, the team of Christy Rizzo, Alessia Lambe and Suzy Wong took bronze. And in level 10, the team of Kayla Sanidad, Lindsay Arnold, Rayna Bouttarath and Sarah Goudie also captured bronze. Way to go girls!
For the next two months, Kraemer says, the girls will up their intensity and efforts to continue to put London on the map as a power in women’s gymnastics.
Cheerleading
London Heat is getting ready for Ontario Championships at the end of February. We have had amazing progress and results so far this year with all of our teams. The senior programs are getting ready to represent London in the Midwest National Championships in Columbus, Ohio this month. All seven of our teams (from ages 5-18) have been practicing hard and achieving new skills, and we have no doubt they will set fire to the floor this month!
