Local makes podium finish
TEAM Momentum Gymnastics Atherton found great success at the recent State Championships held in Brisbane, with Tahlia Huth now third in the state for her division of Level 5.
“A highlight of the event was our newest State Champion Tahlia Huth achieving a long-term goal of getting a podium finish,” said senior coach Steve Hook.
“Tahlia finishing third overall in Level 5 at State Championships is a reason for her and the club to celebrate.”
The girls had to go through a rigorous competition season and qualify to get their place amongst the best in the state to attend this major event.
“We set goals when I started at the beginning of 2024 with our competitive gymnasts,” said Steve.
“These goals were to reach PB’s and to have gymnasts standing on the podiums in local, regional and State Competition.
“We set our team of coaches, utilising various experience in different areas to which we exceeded our own expectations.
“This showed in the results and achievements of the girls so far.”
