Toronto, November 21, 2011 - On November 26 and 27,  Toronto Gymnastics International (TGI) will host a Women’s Artistic Gymnastics Competition.  Talented gymnasts aged 9-14+ from 18 gymnastics clubs in the province will compete for a spot to participate in the Provincial Gymnastics Championships that will take place in the Spring of 2012. 

“TGI is excited to be hosting our first women’s artistic gymnastics competition” says Club President Nancy Corcoran Whiting.  “Our club has grown tremendously over the past number of years and with our newly expanded facility we are ready to welcome 247 athletes, their families and our broader community to enjoy a weekend of great gymnastics!”

The competition gets underway on Saturday morning at 8:30 am with sessions scheduled throughout the day at 11:25 am, 1:55 pm and 4:50 pm.  Sunday’s sessions are scheduled throughout the day at 8:30 am, 11:00 am, 2:00 pm and 4:45 pm.   In addition to some great gymnastics, the day will feature raffle giveaways (spa, sports, and board games), a 50/50 draw and demonstrations from the men’s artistic competitive program.

Few athletic events offer as much potential for beauty and daring as gymnastics. Gymnasts will exhibit strength, flexibility, balance and coordination as they perform routines on four events including the vault, bars beam and floor exercise.
