I'm bragging

The first weekend of April was spent in Reno at the Mens Region 1 Gymnastics Championships. Levels 5 through 10, ages 8 - 18. My grandson, Jordan was competing  in Level 8, age 11-12.  Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada, Northern California and Southern California, make up Region 1. CA has two Star teams representing it. The top 70 Level 8, age 11-12 boys in our Region, including the Star team, were competing.

From the 70 boys, the top eight make up the Region 1 Select team that goes to the Nationals in Portland. There will be a total of 25 boys, including the Select team, going , representing our level 8, age 11-12. 

Jordan qualified for  the Level 8, age 11-12 Select team. Its not the first time he has qualified, but it is the first time he is old enough to go.


All the levels 8 - 10, ages 11-18, from each Region, have a Select team and a set number of boys from each level and age group representing them. At Nationals, the select teams will compete against each other. But all the boys will competing for top honors individually.

I had originally put in videos, but they didn't work, so deleted that post. No pictures, sorry,
Thanks for stopping by.
