Celebrating Growth, Success, and Community This quarter saw continued momentum across the Saskatchewan gymnastics community. Nearly 1,000 children were introduced to gymnastics through school outreach programs, and we hosted our first-ever Parkour Coaches Workshop. Athletes achieved strong results across multiple disciplines, including medals at Elite Canada and out-of-province invitationals, while the Saskatchewan Winter Games in Meadow Lake highlighted the strength of women’s artistic gymnastics in the province. Our Gymnastics for All community is also looking ahead, with Team Saskatchewan preparing for the 2026 Canadian Gymnaestrada in Regina, and increased media attention around the Games helped shine a spotlight on gymnastics across the province.
