POLOKWANE – Parents and families of the acrobats were invited to come and see the talent which developed throughout the year. The gymnasts took to the floor and gymnastic equipment to show off their talents and show that they have grown in the last year to the applause of the crowed.
The gymnasts were also awarded for their hard work throughout the year. A special video was made with the stunts the local gymnasts are able to do and this video will be shared to various clubs as well as be added to Gymnastics South Africa.
