PYT: Profiles of the Young.

As the ingeniously named "Covergirl Classic" rolls around, its time for more Justin Bieber fans to learn level 9 skills and enter themselves in the US Challenge in hopes of becoming a hopes or pre elite gymnast. I for one can not wait until i get to see A-scores of 4.0. Hmm... sounds elite to me.







But in all seriousness, i am super excited for Summer 2010. There are some great new talented girls out there just ready to make a splash. And i would love to introduce some to you:







Exhibit A: Claire Boyce.


Although claire is fifteen years old, and i have followed her closely through her many gym switches over the years. (Starting her higher level career at Dynamo, moved multiple times and has recently found a home at Texas Dreams) She still manages to be relatively unknown. She is a great example of what the Pre-elite system is for. She first qualified as a pre-elite in 2007 and last year was her first year at elite status.


Strengths: Her lines, very very clean and flexible much like Nastia.


Best tricks: She has a whip triple on floor and a hop full to tcatchev on bars. Hmm... impressive.

Good luck at Nationals Claire!
