Albert at the All Around Forum alerts us to some results from the Moscow Regional Championships, held 26-29 October 2010 and posted at http://www.sport-gymnastics.ru/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=2425&sid=31ec44c5dfd1f31ba0f4e286fd04f553. Some of the scores noted, in particular those for Maria Paseka, Anastasia Grishina and Viktoria Malikova, appear to be those they achieved for the Russian Nationals earlier this year. I understand that these key results can be re-used for team competition purposes, in order to avoid over-competing key gymnasts who are preparing for higher profile competitions. This compromise allows the ‘home’ club to gain appropriate recognition for the achievements of their gymnasts.

I will transcribe here some of the key competition results with a view to registering some new names. Of particular interest are the achievements of Naila Mustafina, Aliya Mustafina’s younger sister ;-)

Candidate Master of Sports (girls born 1996-1997)

1. Maria Mager (1997) 53.3 + 53.8 (high score vault = 14.2; floor = 13.7)

2. Anastasia Belova (1997) 49.4 + 52.1 (high score beam = 13.8; floor = 13.8)

3. Anastasia Marchuk (1996) 50.65 + 50.75 (high score vault = 13.9)

Aliya Mustafina’s sister Naila (1996) competed here also after an absence due to injury and achieved 5th position with a total of 98.7 over two days (49.2 + 49.5). Her results in the apparatus finals of 2nd in beam (13.6) and first on floor (13.65) suggest she could have the potential to improve her placing a little.

Also performing hors de competition were a number of younger gymnasts born in 1998. I shall mention Maria Palamar who at the tender age of 11 or 12 achieved a mark of 13.3 on beam.

Winners in the individual apparatus were

Vault : Anastasia Marchuk, 13.45

Bars : Maria Mager, 13.15 (Belova must have been favourite for this with an all around bars score of 13.8, but fell and achieved a score of 11.1 in the final, ending up in 4th place)

Beam : Anastasia Belova, 13.7. Second place to Naila Mustafina, 13.6

Floor : Naila Mustafina 13.65

There was a further competition held for girls born in 1998, although I am unable to translate what it was (anybody able to clarify? The title is ВЗРОСЛЫЙ РАЗРЯД).

Apparatus final results included

Vault : Viktoria Kuzmina 13.625

Bars: Yana Vlasova 13.2

Beam: Elizabetta Yemelyanova 14.4 ;-)

Floor: Ekaterina Bryanchina 14.2

Youth results of the Master of Sports competition (men born 1989-1993) are also provided, with Alexander Klochkov (1990), Konstantin Chalov (1992) and Vycheslav Veselov (1992) sharing the main medals overall. All three seem to share vault as a strength, with scores in the 15s on this apparatus.

I always think it is nice to file these results away and remember the names to see how gymnasts progress. I love it if one of my juniors makes it to senior or even international level!

Mustafina on Roschina

By
ROTTERDAM (Netherlands), October 24. /TASS/. Russian gymnast Lyudmila Roshchina, who won silver in the individual all-around at the World Championships, succeeded precisely because she focused on challenging herself rather than competing for medals. This is the assessment of Aliya Mustafina, a coach for the Russian national team and a two-time Olympic champion, who spoke to TASS. "Of course, I wasn't certain that Lyudmila would end up on the podium in the all-around, though I certainly hoped she would," Mustafina said. "The general instruction was not to think about medals or rankings. As they headed from the warm-up area to the competition floor, I told the girls: 'Don't worry about where you place—just focus on challenging yourselves.' And Lyusya managed to do exactly that." "Her mindset played a major role, too; she was in a very positive frame of mind even back in the warm-up area. So, I wouldn't say that winning this silver was an incre...

Aliya Mustafina - new interview

By
Aliya in her new Olympic Games outfit.  The teams were kitted out at the Bosco Olympic centre in Moscow last week 'Europeans went quite well, for me personally and for the team.  There were no big blunders or falls and we were able to show a good result.  If we continue to work in the same way as we approach the Olympics, everything will be fine ... Although of course we will need to do a little more in Rio.  For the Olympic Games, everything will be right. 'My knee [Aliya suffered a torn meniscus for which she had surgery last November] is all right, there are no problems with it, I am not worried. 'We will try to fight for first place. But we will be happy with any medals . As usual, our main rivals will be the teams of America, China and the UK. 'It will now be very, very difficult to fight Simone Biles [in the AA] because she has a very large D score. In general, in the individual competition, my goal is just to perform well. The most important thing in the Olymp...

Simone Biles - 'on her way to Olympic gold' in the opinion of Russia

By
Prosport is carrying the following article about Simone Biles, who they tip as a favourite for Olympic gold.  I thought I would share it here (Google translate in italics) as it gives an interesting perspective on where the Russians feel the sport is heading.  Elena Zamolidchikova and Alexander Alexandrov are both extensively quoted. Atypical American. Simon Biles on the way to Olympic gold Simone Biles, American gymnast, turned 18 on March 14, 2015. Shortly before this, the first in US history absolute Olympic gymnastics champion Mary Lou Retton called Biles perhaps the most gifted athlete in the history of the sport. In 2014, Simon became the first gymnast for 40 years to win four gold at a World Championships. But Biles is not only talent. This is the first gymnast in recent years from the United States, who is not going to earn on its potential Olympic success.
