International Success! Dec. 11-12,
2010
The boys have
officially begun their season! They started off very strong in the
elite season with Adam and Bobby competing. Adam Zysk, aka Coach Adam,
placed second place on vault among an international field of World and
Olympic gymnasts! This is the first international medal for a male
gymnast in Memphis! Bobby did a great job in his elite debut as well
with good performances on all 6 events!
Following in the footsteps of Coach Adam, and with the guidance of
Coach Murphy, the level 4 boys team took 3rd place team among an
international field of competitors deep in the heart of gymnastics in
this country! Jarren took 2nd place all-around in his very first
competition! Many of the boys placed highly on each event, and every
single level 4 placed in the all-around competition! Way to start
strong boys!

You Go Girls!
Nearly 8
months have past since the girls' team last competed at the River City
Invitational, and it's time to get going again! Our young ladies
competed Saturday, September 25, 2010 at the You're The One
Invitational in Gallatin, TN. This season has brought some new faces to
the gym, and they handled the pressure of competing quite well! For
some of the girls, it was their first time competing in a new level, so
that means new skills, new routines, and new competitors! Everyone did
a fantastic job, we certainly hope the girls had a blast and learned
something from this first meet of the season! Let us all wish these
fine young ladies success in the rest of their competitive season!
Train hard girls, and go kick some butt!
Parents, if you have any pictures from
this competition that you would like featured on the website, please
email or bring a copy of the picture to Adam Zysk (aka Coach Adam)!

National News!
On
May 4-9, 2010, Knoxville, TN hosted the 2010 Junior Olympic National
Championships. Our very own Bobby Davis qualified to this competition,
and certainly had
one of his most successful competitions ever! In the
first day of competition, Bobby placed 64th in the All-Around out of a
field of over 200 competitors! Not only did he place very well in the
All-Around during the prelims, he qualified 10th place into the Still
Rings event semi-finals! This is truly an amazing accomplishment, and
we as a team could not be more proud of Bobby. What a great way to end
the competition season, way to go Bob!
