Six gymnasts earned qualification to the 2015 provincial championships and Kayla Glover earned an all-around championship at Junior Olympic Level 4 as the Campbell River Gymnastics Association competed in the Mount Arrowsmith competition this month in Port Alberni.
The meet served as a provincial qualifier for gymnasts at Levels 5, 6 and 7, and CRGA advanced six athletes with several others in the running for possible wild-card spots.
At JO Level 5, Shae Bridgen claimed the bronze medal in the all-around to earn provincial qualification.
Ksenia Stansell finished eighth all around in the JO Level 6 (2004-younger) division and Hannah Sommer finished ninth as both earned provincial berths.
At the JO Level 6 (2003-older), Leah Anderson was fourth in the all-around to qualify, and Rebecca Revoy placed 11th and moved up to top-10 qualifier status when another athlete was forced to scratch.
Brianna Pollock, at JO Level 7, automatically qualified while placing seventh in the all-around competition.
The B.C. Championships are scheduled for April 10-11 at Capilano University in North Vancouver.
In addition to Bridgen’s all-around bronze medal at Level 5, the Campbell River club had two more podium finishers in the all-around with Glover winning gold and teammate Ellie Anderson claiming bronze.
