9th European TeamGym Championships in Aarhus/DEN: second day of qualifications

October 19, 2012

2nd competition day of this 9th TeamGym Championships: qualifications of the junior and senior women teams and the junior men teams from today 16 o’clock on.

Women junior teams' qualifications.

The young Finnish girls are the first to present themselves for the floor exercise, performing a nice and smooth performance. The team from ISL impressed the audience with their floor exercise and were awarded with a nice 19.649.

Up to the last moment the suspense of who is going to be the top qualifier remained high; it finally is Iceland that manages to outscore Denmark.

 

Results of this qualification:

1-     ISL – 52.999

2-     DEN – 52.250

3-     SWE – 51.383

 

The competition continues with the qualifications of the junior men’s teams which includes only three teams: Denmark, Sweden and Norway.

The host country’s junior men’s team manages to get the top score in all three disciplines. No doubt that they clearly dominate!

 

The men’s teams on floor are great to watch as well.

The boys are just as graceful as the girls, perfectly in rhythm with the music, the choreographies are precise and the acrobatic elements are well mastered.

 

Results of the qualifications:

1-     DEN – 60.883

2-     SWE – 48.283

3-     NOR – 47.200

 

Third and last qualification with the women senior teams' qualifications.

 

 
What an amazing atmosphere in the competition hall! The public is incredible and it expect a great day for the finals tomorrow ...
 
Nice routines for the Swedish girls who finished first of these qualifications. But they need to confirm this first place tomorrow to win the title.
 
 
Results of these qualifications:
 
1 - SWE - 57.383
 
2 - ISL - 54.050
 
3 - DEN - 50.966
 
See you tomorrow for the finals.
