Glacier clubs 'amazing' at provincials
By Contributor
Nelson’s Glacier Gymnastics Club, strutted their stuff at the 2014 BC Provincial Championships in Kamloops recently.
All the gymnasts’ performances fit in seamlessly with the lower mainland and other BC clubs. Almost everyone came home with an award and many brought home medals, including 5 Gold, 8 Silver, 4 Bronze and 1 All Around Championship Gold.
“These results show how amazing our Nelson gymnasts area,” said Sandra Long, Glacier Gymnastics Head Coach of the Seven girls and three boys squad.
“Our club’s gymnasts train 4-8 hours less per week then the clubs we compete against, and our girls and boys look just as refined and are very competitive in the Province,”
