"The children enjoyed so much!" Coach Natalia Tushina speaks about the victory of her trainees at the Sky Grace Cup for the Central Federal District

Natalia Tushina, the coach of the Olimpiets Olympic Reserve Athletic School from the Ryazan Region, came together with her students to the Sky Grace Cup interregional competition. Her gymnasts showed the best result in the Central Federal District among candidate masters of sports.

The professional shared with us her emotions from the tournament in Sirius:

"We have long heard of the Sky Grace International Clubs Association. We were interested in coming and participating. It turned out to be like a festival. The competition was very festive. It was interesting for us to test ourselves under slightly different rules. Furthermore, this is an extra opportunity for the children, an additional event, different judges, different atmosphere, and so all that was interesting. And the children enjoyed that so much. The children got their experience, which is needed for them for further performances."

The coach also noted progress of Academy students Polina Semenova and Elena Styushina from Ryazan:

"They are developing now, they are growing now. I really liked the performance of Polina Semenova at the Alina Kabaeva Champions Cup Grand Prix. I saw her ball routine and was happy that we have such a fellow country-girl. And our coach Ekaterina Lots is working decently. Lena is also endeavoring and developing. I believe that the children made great progress in the Academy."
