Tumble in the Bluegrass

011009_gymnastics_feature

This past Saturday (01/10/09) was the second competition, Tumble in the Bluegrass, attended by the Level 3 team from 5-Star Gymnastics this season. The meet was held in Louisville, KY at Stuart Elementary School and was hosted by Wild Card Gymnastics. Given the early start time for the level 3 team of 7:45, we drove down on Friday evening  and stay in a hotel close to the location. The recommended hotel was a Holiday Inn with an indoor swimming pool and the kids enjoyed this immensely.

Here is the scores of the level 3 5-Star team.

You can find videos of each of Natalie’s events: VaultBarsBalance beam, and Floor exercise.

I took a few still shots, but it is clear that my point and shoot Canon is not going be the best tool for distance action shots.

Legacy Gymnastics Winter Spectacular

This past Sunday (12/07/08) was the first competetive meet attended by the Level 3 team from 5-Star Gymnastics this season. The meet was held in Lexington, KY at the Legacy Gymnastic facility. Given the early start time for the level 3 team of 7:45, we needed to drive down on Saturday night and stay in a hotel close to the location. The girls had a great first showing and had a chance to see other teams in action.

Here is the scores of the 7 year old age group.

I took a few still shots, but it is clear that my point and shoot Canon is not going be the best tool for distance action shots. Will have to look into how to address this in the future.
