MAY RECAP

Gym Sask had such a busy month of May and the beginning of June with events we wanted to recap all our athlete’s successes!

May 13-15 the Yorkton Springers and Gym Sask co-hosted the first Provincial Championships since 2019! We had over 400 athletes from four disciplines come together to celebrate and compete in their disciplines! We had quite the adventure Friday with an hour and a half power outage but we managed to overcome this and get back on track allowing everyone to finish their competitions. WE would like to say a huge thank you to all the athletes, coaches, judges, volunteers and parents for bearing with us during the power outage and for helping us get back on track with the schedule!

We crowned 44 individual all-around winners in men’s artistic, women’s artistic, rhythmic and trampoline and tumbling gymnastics. For full results click the link here: https://www.saskgymnasticsresults.com/
