What a competition - so many great gymnasts at Provincial Championship this year. I was on pins and needles during the entire meet.
Alex had already made Nationals - from Elite Canada but chose to compete at Provincials to see if she could make Team Ontario. She was really nervous this time - because she needed to be in the top 6. So because she was nervous - I was nervous (I acted all calm around her but was freaking outside). And I was unable to carry any type of adult conversation as I was watching so intently. Her coaches were amazing getting her focused through the meet.
She started on beam and in warm up completely missed the beam on her BLO. I was thinking this is not a great way to start..... BUT then... she fought and focused.....
She has been fighting with a strained hip flexor and lost her layout vault just after gymnix.... lots of stuff going on.
In the end she ended up placing 3rd overall - and will be part of the 6 gymnasts representing Team Ontario at Nationals. She loves all the girls on her team. She says she has a really nice Novice Group.
Hope you enjoy the video I put together.... we always appreciate the "like" or "comments" on youtube. Enjoy...
