SOUTH EAST WALES PREPARATION AND DEVELOPMENT GRADES
Nine CNGA gymnasts competed at the South East Prep and Development Grades on the weekend. The girls were all working to achieve a grade, rather than an individual position overall. There were top 6 places awarded on each apparatus (Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor and Ranges) but the main focus was that all our gymnasts achieved either one of the following grade passes
WORKING TOWARDS – scoring a total of 49.9 or below
WORKING AT – scoring at the appropriate level and achieving a total score between 50 and 54.9
WORKING ABOVE – scoring above the requirement of the level and achieving a total score between 55 and 59.9
WORKING BEYOND – scoring above the requirement of the level and achieving a total score above 60
Preparation 1
Evie Traves and Primrose Richards competed at this level. Both girls were amazing and performed fantastic routines. They did not quite achieve top 6 positions at the competition but both gymnasts can be super proud of their grading result. Well done Prim and Evie!!
