The Continental Championships of the Rhythmic gymnasts comes to an end

Today, the 36th Rhythmic Gymnastics European Championships has come to an end in Kyiv, Ukraine.

On the last day of the competition, senior individual gymnasts competed to determine the winner in the All-Around. Our country was represented by Zohra Aghamirova and Arzu Jalilova in the intense contest. Zohra ranked 9th according to the total score achieved with all 4 apparatus. Arzu, who made a debut in senior event at this Championships, became 12th leaving behind a number of experienced gymnasts.

Thus, our team completed this Continental Championships with 3 medals. The team in group exercises consisting of Zeynab Hummatova, Darya Sorokina, Maryam Safarova, Laman Alimuradova and Yelyzaveta Luzan, won the Silver medals in the All-Around and “Bronze” with 3 hoops and 2 pairs of clubs. One more Bronze medal was won by our senior team in group exercises and junior gymnasts - Narmin Bayramova, Alina Gozalova, Ilona Zeynalova and Leyli Aghazada - in a team competition.

Congratulations to the entire gymnastics community on this success!
