Team Voranc

So, we got to the end of this season! It was wonderful, full of emotions, ups and downs, new experiences and knowledge. We had a great time, we managed to achieve the set goals and meet our expectations. We learned a lot of new elements, and also that it's worth keeping up to the end. You must never give up. We said goodbye to the 2018 season on Friday, June 15th in our home gym. We had the last performance of the year for our parents and friends. Seniors performed with free routine Albatraoz , pair Saura with balls and a speacial gala show - hoop routine from 2013!  We're so proud of our free routine, which was truly another level from the last one. We gave our best and proved that hard work always pays off! We placed third out of 12 teams on National Championships with only 0,1 behind second place. Even better, we reached our goal with scoring over 10,000. Our execution was second best, much higher from the others and even our technical value increased for over a p...

On Thursday, June 7, our girls Sara, Laura and Maja, together with the coaches of our club, went to the XIX. World Championship of Aesthetic Group Gymnastics, which was held in Budapest last weekend. The road to there was long, but we returned home full of new experiences and knowledge.  We enjoyed watching the competition in a wonderful atmosphere. We came there as supporters of the Finnish team Minetit, so we are proud of them, winning two silver medals in both Junior and Senior category. In addition to this, we also met many other teams on the trip. Thank you everyone for a friendly response, it was nice to meet you! And congratulations to everyone!

So, here we are. Our last match is over. On Sunday, May 20th, we took part at the 2018 National Championships of A1 program and successfully finished our season. After, unfortunately, the unsuccessful competition last weekend, we had a lot of motivation for the upcoming. This may helped us. This was our first competition outside the Ljubljana area, but it was not the first time that we traveled together. At 8 am we drove out of Ljubljana and after about an hour and a half, thanks to our driver Nina and coach Hana, arrived in Maribor.  The competition program was slightly different than usual. We were very pleased that the competition for our group already began in the morning. First, there was a competition of pairs/triples in which our seniors Sara and Laura took part. They competed as number 3. The exercise was well performed, with a small mistake that Laura quickly and effortlessly repaired. Luckily, it didn't cost them a medal. In the strong competition, they were ran...

Last Saturday, the 2018 National Championships of C program was held. Since we finished second and fourth at Regional Championships, we qualified to Finals with both routines. This was a big day for us, because Nationals are always announcing the end of the season. We were barely waiting for that day, but we obviously had too many expectations. Our goal was above all to carry out exercises, as we know best, but this did not work out completely. Unfortunately, the judicial system was a little more sharpened that day, which made us even more sad. Because the season is ending and our ball routine is already 3 years old, we wanted to perform a good routine. Unfortunately, luck was not on our side. There were silly mistakes in the exercise; which were too many of them to reach the expected medal. Because of our second place last month, we expected a better ranking, because the previous exercise also wasn't the best in execution - we had three drops. Unfortunately, it happe...

Last Saturday, April 21st, we competed at the Second Championship Competition of Group compostitions. The competiton for A program was held early in the morning, so the A1 program was sooner than usual. It pleased us, because our member had the prom date on the same day.  As we have already said in previous posts, last month we were facing injuries and illnesses, so we wern't in the best possible way and almost gave up participation in the competitions. We are happy that we didn't, because in spite of the difficulties we managed to achieve a lot. We were very pleased that our competition part began with a category of exercises with apparatus, that we got rid of the stress of the apparatus as soon as possible. The routine was surprisingly good. Nevertheless, we made some minor mistakes, which were completely unnecessary, but in the end we did not expect such a good ranking. With a score of 4,650 (2,700+1,650+0,300), we were placed on excellent 8th place, which is...

Our seniors Nina and Maja took part in Aesthetic Group Gymnastics World Cup II as volunteers for a second year in a row. Last year, Padua was great, but this time it was even better. The second stage of World Cup took part in Graz, Austria from the 13th to 15th of April. Volunteering must be our favourite hobby, since we are doing it every month :P It was a great honor to be part of such a big event and as always, we enjoyed every single part of it. We can no longer count how many events we have already attended as volunteers, although not always in large numbers. Congratulations, of course, to the organizers, that they took us in so nicely and offered us a place of volunteers.    Pictures with our favourites! Thank you so much Olivia Yli-Juuti, Minetit Junior and of course, one and only, Minetit Senior! 💕 With Antton Laine (FIN), the best AGG choreographer :) Thank you for such a lovely experience, pictures say everything... Hope to see you so...

In Saturday, April 14th, our club traditionally organized the Regional Championship in rhythmic and aesthetic gymnastics of C program. The competition was very nice and the atmosphere was very good! In the morning there was a competition for younger categories - girls and pre-juniors. At 14:30 the competition started for older categories - juniors and seniors.  At first, Saura performed their pair routine for A1 program, which was a general training for them, because the next Saturday we're continuing the race at the 2nd Championship Competition. The routine was very well performed and the audience really enjoyed it! In the category of pre-juniors were 25 groups competing with apparatus. Voranc 1 competed with balls and placed 6th. Voranc 2 made a mistake and landed on 11th place. Both teams made it to the first half, so they successfully qualified to the National Championships in May. Seniors went to the competition with good thoughts because they had only a goal:...
