Nationals 2021 has now come to an end. This year, we had one representative, Deklyn Davis-Gardner who competed in the NAT 5 Individual Trampoline event. Deklyn finished in 12th place.
We would like to congratulate Deklyn on making the State Team and hope he enjoyed his Nationals experience. Our competitive athletes are now turning their attentions to Levels State Championships which will be held in August.

Time sure flies when you’re having fun! With almost a quarter of the year already gone, the 2021 Trampoline Gymnastics competition season is well under way.
This year, Miranda RSL Youth Club only has one athlete competing in the national stream, Deklyn Davis-Gardner. We are pleased to report that at State Trial 2, held this weekend at SGAC in Rooty Hill, Deklyn placed 4th on Double Mini Trampoline and placed 5th on Individual Trampoline in the NAT Level 5 Mens division. Deklyn’s Individual Trampoline score has also secured his spot on the State Team for the Australian Gymnastics Championships which will be held on the Gold Coast in May.
Congratulations Deklyn!
Yesterday, Gymnastics NSW and Gymnastics Australia announced the decision to cancel or postpone all events between now and July 1, 2020. This includes the Senior State Championships which were due to be held at the beginning of April and the Australian National Championships which would have been held during May in Melbourne.

In light of this decision, we thought we would highlight the efforts of our only National Stream athlete this year, Deklyn D-G. 2020 was Deklyn’s first year in National Stream and he competed at both Trial events held earlier this year in the Nat5 group for under 13s. He had hoped to qualify for the State Team in Trampoline and Double Mini and attend Nationals. You can watch Deklyn’s Voluntary routine at the most recent Trial event below. Deklyn will now be re-focusing on skill development and set his sights on Nationals 2021.
Last week, three members of our Karate program along with their sensei travelled to the Sunshine Coast to attend Shotokan Week and the 2018 SKIA National Championships.
Congratulations to all of our athletes for their excellent results at the National Championships! Their placings are listed below.
Amanda B. – 2 Gold
Liam B. – 1 Silver, 1 Bronze
Lucas V. – 2 Gold
We would like to extend a special congratulations to Liam who also passed his Shodan (First Degree Black Belt) during the event. Well done Liam!
Nationals 2018 has now come to an end. Our representative Olivia T. competed in all four Trampoline Gymnastics disciplines in the Female Under 11 division across two long days of fierce competition. Her results are as follows:
Individual Trampoline – 27th
Double Mini Trampoline – 18th
Tumbling – 7th
Synchronised Trampoline – 8th
Team NSW finished 2nd on the medal tally, only narrowly missing out on the top spot.
Olivia is now looking towards Nationals 2019 and is hoping to come away with even better results.
Even though we are a primarily recreational club, we love seeing athletes come up through our junior classes and go on to succeed competitively! Congratulations Olivia!
