Over the weekend, four talented acrobats from Mackay Gymnastics showcased their skills at the prestigious Australian National Championships, held on the Gold Coast. Competing against strong rivals from across the country, the young athletes delivered outstanding performances that reflected their dedication and talent.
Among the standout routines, Artaya and Mia secured an impressive third place in their dynamic routine, demonstrating exceptional teamwork and precision. Their success is a testament to the effort and commitment they’ve poured into their training.
Fellow competitors Oriana and Pia also performed admirably, showcasing their strength and determination in a highly competitive field. Coach Jenny Rowland expressed immense pride in all four athletes for their efforts and perseverance throughout the championship.
Jenny, an international-level coach and judge, played a vital role across the three-day event, judging all sessions.
Reflecting on the experience, she said, “The success of our acrobats at the Australian National Championships is not just a win for them but a proud moment for the entire Mackay community.
“It demonstrates the dedication and talent that exists in our region, inspiring young athletes to pursue their dreams and showcasing the strength of our gymnastics programs.
“More importantly, it highlights the foundational principles of gymnastics, which instill vital movement and life skills for all our participants aged 4 months to 80 plus. We are so proud of all of our hardworking gymnasts at Mackay Gymnastics.”
Jenny’s guidance and expertise have been instrumental in preparing the athletes for elite-level competition.
Now, with the Nationals behind them, the girls are shifting their focus to training for the upcoming Regional Championships in Gladstone and the State Championships in Brisbane this August. With fresh motivation and growing momentum, the future looks bright for this dedicated team of young athletes.
