What year was the first Gymfest you went to?
1996
How many Gymfests have you attended?
20+ (15 as a gymnast)
What are some of your favourite Gymfest memories?
The highlight of the year was always Gymfest as a gymnast. I love how inclusive the event is, supporting gymnasts of all ages and abilities.
The support from all the other teams is amazing. In 2017 we took a group of gymnasts from our club who were not part of the display team to experience Gymfest. The support and cheers given by the other teams watching gave our gymnasts who were performing for the first time ever such a boost.
What is your favourite Gymfest routine you have ever seen?
There have been so many fantastic routines. But I think there is nothing better than seeing your own team put on a brilliant performance after all their hard work in the gym.
