2010 "All-Star" Trip

Posted: 02.23.2010

2010 "All-Star" Trip Information:

The Region's top six level 9's and top 6 level 10's at Nationals will make up the 2010 Region 8 "All-Star" Team. Our fourth annual trip is planned for New York City on the weekend of July 29th - August 1st. We will be training at the incredible Chelsea Piers gymnastics center.


The Region will pay for each athlete’s airfare, lodging and transportation while in New York (athletes will be responsible for food and activity costs). It is not mandatory for personal coaches to attend but any that wish to come along are welcomed. Coaches that do decide to attend will have to do so at their own expense minus transportation* – Region 8 will take care of that. Total costs for coaches will include airfare to NYC, ½ of a hotel room for three nights, food and activities.

*Brad Harris will assign 3 to 4 coaches as a Lead Coaching Staff to help run the training sessions. Coaches assigned to the Lead Staff will have their airfare, hotel and transportation paid for by Region 8. Staff will simply be responsible for their own food and activities.


Selection Procedures:

The top six – L 9’s (plus ties) and the top six – L 10’s (plus ties) from Eastern/National Championships will make up the team. The team is chosen as follows:

Any athlete(s) that place first in the AA get first priority.
Any athlete(s) that place second in the AA fill any remaining spots.
Any athlete(s) that place third in the AA fill any remaining spots.
If there are still spots available the athlete(s) with the highest AA score regardless of Age Group will make up the remainder of the team.


Graduating Seniors are ineligible for the trip.

Letter from Cindy McLane

Posted: 01.20.2010

January 20, 2010

To: Region 8 Gymnastics,

I wanted to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to everyone, coaches, judges, gymnasts, club owners, parents and friends in the gymnastic community in Region 8 for giving me many opportunities over the years to be involved with such a fantastic group of people. As some of you know, I have left Florida and relocated to Las Vegas.


Through my many years in gymnastics I made many good friends, met many coaches who helped me grow in my gymnastic abilities, and had the opportunity to judge some fabulous gymnastics. Region 8 was a big influence and inspiration to my growth in gymnastics.

I surely will miss being a part of the Region 8 and its gymnastic community but I will always remember the lessons learned and the fun times we had. Region 8 gymnastics will continue to grow and be the best because of all of the wonderful people involved. I was blessed to have the opportunity for many years to coach and judge in Region 8 and will forever be grateful to each and every person.

Good Luck to all,

Cindy McLane
