Tropical Twist Gymnastics Meet (H)

Recreational meet – Starlight Blue 1st, Starlight White 3rd

Competitive meet – Starlight 1st

July 22nd saw the first ever Tropical Twist gymnastics meet held here at Camp Starlight.  The weather meant it certainly felt tropical, but being inside meant that the competition could go ahead despite the heat-wave.

The morning session saw teams from Blue Ridge and Indian Head joining 40 Starlight campers in a recreational meet.  This gave every gymnast the opportunity to participate in a competitive environment and exhibit the routines they had all been practicing so hard.  Starlight entered a blue and white team and some impressive results were recorded.  Starlight Blue won the overall team competition with 164.1 points with Shelby P and Marni K sharing joint 2ndand Maddi S taking fourth in the all-arounder competition.  Marni also came 1st in the Junior Beam competition with a superb score of 9.5.

The afternoon session was a competitive meet with Starlight taking on an excellent team from Blue Ridge.  The standard was very high but Starlight won the overall team first place award by a slim margin.  Starlight campers Hannah C, MacKenzie A and Lauren P took 1st, 2nd and 3rdrespectively in the senior division all-arounder competition.  Their junior counterparts – Elle B, Skylar R and Amanda S also did extremely well with each girl taking a minimum of third place on at least one piece of apparatus.  Well done to all three Starlight teams for making it such an enjoyable day.
