At the Island Gymnastics Academy’s recent Annual Awards Banquet, the club’s top gymnasts were honored for the 2015-2016 season. Gymnasts were selected from each training group based on competition results, work ethic and leadership, level of improvement over the year, and sportsmanship. Participation medals were also awarded to the Academy’s Mini Tumblers to recognize their hard works and accomplishments in the pre-competitive program.
It was an exciting year for the Academy’s competitive teams, who travelled to numerous competitions in the Atlantic region as well as events in Orlando, Montreal, Las Vegas and Edmonton. The club’s programs continue to grow with over 1200 registered gymnasts.
In the women’s program, award winners included Alexa McClure, Lauren Rafuse, Sophie Mayne, Dara MacInnis, MacKenzie Paton, Victoria Covey, Claire Gosbee and Neleah Lavoie.
The men’s program winners included Ian McKenna, Trent Quinn, Josh Hammill and Matt Gallant and Alex Mann.
The Academy also recognized Brenna Ing as the most improved from the competitive program’s morning conditioning program.
