The Prez Sez... I'd like to wish everyone a very happy and relaxing (?) holiday season. Please take time to do non-work related things. Remember that family and friends are so very important and it seems that we just don't give them enough of our attention, so now is a great time to make special plans to spend some much needed time with them. I myself have the most awesome light display in my front yard! It took many hours over the Thanksgiving break but it was a lot of fun to do. I am going to challenge the Osborne lights at Disney! Sports Dance to Debut in Junior Olympic Games 2003 It's official! Sports Dance has been added to the J. O. Games for 2003! Because it is now under the umbrella of gymnastics, Sport Dance will be known as TEAM PERFORMANCE GYMNASTICS at the J. O. Games. Team Performance Gymnastics will be contested in the same arena in the same time frame as artistic gymnastics, utilizing the floor ex mat. This will give an opportunity for coaches to bring team performance groups to a national championship and not have to travel to another venue if they have artistic gymnasts competing or have your artistic gymnasts compete in Team Performance as well. Now is the time to get on the bandwagon and develop a Sport Dance/Team Performance Gymnastics program in your gym. It is easy, fun and profitable for your club. Rules went out in the information packet for the Princess Classic. If you need rules of info call Kathy Stuenkel at 941-629-6967 or 941-627-5342 or Brenda Rossiter at Tampa Gym and Dance. Cheerleading in Junior Olympic Games 2003 Shelly Paull, AAU National Cheerleading Chair, has announced the addition of cheerleading in
the 2003 JO Games in Detroit. Competition will be held July 29th in
the Silver Dome. both Sport Dance and Cheerleading, the Star USA State Championships, to be held March 29-30, will also be the National Qualifier for JO Games. This is a great opportunity to take your all star cheer squads to an awesome National competition, or start an all star squad in your gym. All squads in both the Star USA program and JO Games receive individual awards and squad size can be small (12 or less) to large. All age/grade, novice and advanced divisions are welcomed. Contact Shelly at 941-627-5342 or email at [email protected] or contact Marci Schneider or Chad Payne, Star USA Cheerleading Coordinators at 386-454-1779, for rules and info. New Team Florida Gymnastics Manual Coming Soon The 2003 manual will be mailed to all registered clubs in January. Its is being retyped by Louise Wynn. She sends her apologies for getting this out late, but unfortunately, she has experienced some health problems and had to go back on kidney dialysis. This setback put her out of commission for about a month and set her back on her duties. She is doing much better and will get out the new books asap. In the meantime, please make note of some IMPORTANT CHANGES/CLARIFICATIONS by Clicking Here. A BIG THANK YOU... To Brandon Suntwisters, Broadway, North Central Florida YMCA and Horizon for hosting terrific qualifiers. Thanks for making a great meet experience for all those involved. Also, a thank you goes out to St. Cloud Gymnastics for hosting the state meet. There were some unavoidable circumstances regarding this meet and the result was that the information for meet times were not able to be sent out as quickly as planned. This was no one's fault, it just happened. It is a huge undertaking to run a state competition with hundreds of gymnasts involved and try as you might, everything can't be perfect. I know that St. Cloud has done everything possible to make this event a wonderful experience for the kids, coaches and parents. |
