Sunday the 20th of Jan 2013 was the first training session for the National Irish 2020 Olympic Start Squad, part of the National Performance Program. Amongst the twenty-eight members of this Nationwide squad proudly nine have been selected from Galway’s Renmore Gymnastics Club.
The girls had a tremendous first training session where they underwent a thorough assessment against the National testing criteria demonstrating not only that they were rightfully selected for this squad but also setting a very high standard and benchmark for many others to follow. With such a young highly talented squad the future is certainly bright for the Renmore Gymnastics. As the new season begins we wish them and all their fellow club mates a great year.
2020 Olympic Start Squad:
Emma Slevin
Kate Molloy
Jane Heffernan
Daniela Goluba
Maya Banerjee
Sarah Hynes
Alex-Marie McDonagh
Aisling Fuller
Amy O’Neill
Ellen Hynes and Emmeline Anghileri are in the 2016 Olympic Squad. We wish them a great start to their year when they attend their first Irish National 2016 Olympic squad in Belfast on Feb 9th.
I personally speculate as to why you titled this
particular blog post, “Great start at Nationals on Sunday gymnasts!
Renmore Gymnastics Club – because gymnastics is good for children”.
Anyway I loved the article!Thanks a lot-Celia
