Winners and prize winners of the All-Russian Formula of Victory tournament in group exercises talk about their programs, plans and rivals

At the All-Russian Formula of Victory tournament, the top three included gymnasts from Krasnodar Region, the Republic of Crimea and Rostov Region.

The team from Krasnodar Region — Anna Alekseeva, Sofia Patyukova, Victoria Pochtarkina, Arina Wagner and Sofia Zorichev shared their plans and goals for the upcoming start.

"We have the next competition — the Cup of the Strongest, which will be held here. We also want to work on accurate throws and perform confidently. Show our clean performances," the gymnasts said.

The gymnasts also noted the group gymnasts they like to watch.

"We watch all the teams, the Nizhny Novgorod Region, the Russian team, the Omsk Region. We try to learn something," they said.

The second place went to representatives of the Republic of Crimea: Sofia Chernyakova, Roza Panasyugina, Margarita Ermolova, Victoria Kononova and Ekaterina Okhrimenko. The athletes talked about their daily routine before the competition.

"In the morning we had choreography, then we went to the first training session, and after that we had the second training session," they shared.

The bronze medalists — the Rostov Region team consisting of Zlata Khodaeva, Daria Plugina, Maria Shevchenko, Nicole Getmanova, Maria Tyutyunnik and Daria Novoydarskay,  talked in more detail about their programs at the tournament.

"We like both of our programs. The hoops are lighter, more dynamic, more positive. The ribbons have a more serious image. It’s probably a little more difficult to embody."
