Gymnastics Western Australia and e-Event Promotions have announced the participants for the inaugural Chetkovich Cup. The Chetkovich Cup is set to take place on the 26th of October at Challenge Stadium. The Chetkovich Cup brings together athletes from the seven Gymnastics disciplines - Women's Artistic, Men's Artistic, Rhythmic Gymnastics, Sport Aerobics, Acrobatic Gymnastics, Trampoline Sports, and Cheerleading. According to the GWA website (http://www.gymnasticswa.asn.au/?ID=25466) "athletes will be ranked 1 to 36 in ability and allocated to one of the six teams at our Team Selection Evening on October 10th, ensuring teams compete with even ability. The teams will then compete against each other, pinning athletes from different gymnastics disciplines against one another." Mention must also be made of  Women's Artistic Gymnasts Nikky Chung and Georgia Simpson who are Chetkovich Cup Ambassadors - whilst they won't be competing on the night they will be around for autographs. And also to Matt Goonatillake who will be doing a half-time display on the Balance Beam! Totally exciting stuff!!
