Nationals 2011: Go West

This is a short media round-up for the women's national championships; if you see anything on the men's or rhythmics PLEASE let me know!

GA results page for competition rounds out of Perth so far is here. There are some great updates coming via Facebook throughout the day. I hear Queensland have been fighting off all comers in just about every national levels division!

There is a West Australian article on the home soil seniors here, and I am told by a number of fans who watched that the Today Tonight feature on WAIS was fantastic, above and beyond what we've seen from current affairs pieces of the past focusing on our sport. Of particular note? Lauren Mitchell training a Patterson dismount off beam!

Speaking of Lauren, here is a new article from PerthNow with a lovely smiley pic of Lauren as she prepares to take on the best in the country.



ETA: A factsheet (transcript?) from the second night of the Today Tonight feature can be found here!

WOO! I always thought Lauren should do that dismount see she has a lovely double arabian on floor.
It would be awesome if she could have her own skill!
Super excited to see her vault this weekend!
