The roster for the 2013 L'International Gymnix Junior Cup and Challenge Gymnix competitions have been released. The line up for the Junior Cup is exciting! Gymnasts to watch out for are: Belgium's Cindy Vandenhole; Canada's Heaven Latimer, Aleeza Yu, Sydney Townsend, Rose-Kaying Woo and Shallon Olsen; France's Louise Vanhille, the Romanian contingent; and Russia's Yulia Biryulya. The majority of the participants competing in the Challenge Gymnix are Canadians and they should be hard to beat, but look out for the following international competitors: Silvia Colussi-Pelaez (Spain), Belgium's Berengere Fransolet and Laura Waem, Finland's Ida Laisi and Annika Urvikko, Morgane Detrez and Noemie Marrot, Toni-Ann Williams of Jamaica, Peru's Andrea Camino Bonicelli and Marisa Dick of Trinidad & Tobago.
