The gymnasts were challenged leading up to the tournament as due to COVID-19 restrictions, they were left them with no other option but to train via Zoom.

"It's a real testament to their commitment to represent their state after only being able to train at home and then go on to compete against the best in the country and hold their own," Palmer's Gym owner Emma Carmody said.

Amelia Mitrovic, the youngest and newest member of the Victorian Tumbling Team had a strong top-10 finish in the national level five division.

Palmer's level six tumblers also impressed on the floor with an array of great results: Olivia Leed (7th), Amber Kelly (11th), Chloe Kahaduwa Poodduwage (14th) Jamison McFadden (16th), Lucy Tibbs (18th) and Olivia Burns (19th).

In addition, Tibbs and McFadden also received national recognition for five years of participation at the ASCs.

Amelia Boyle was in action for the level seven national tumbling and finished ninth overall.

Carmody said the experience of competing at nationals was a confidence-booster.

"For our gymnasts to know they are up competing against the best in the country does wonders for their confidence," she said.

"The championships are by far one of the hardest tournaments to enter each year."

Palmer's Gym athletes are hoping to hit the competition floor again in a few months time in September at the National Clubs Carnival back on the Gold Coast where the most important thing is on the line, club bragging rights.

"This is another huge event for us," Carmody said.

"It always attracts top quality as clubs from right across the country compete against each other."

However, with the country slowly descending back into lockdown there's new doubt if the event will go ahead.

"Either way we will be aiming towards that as our next event and hopefully it can go ahead," Carmody said.

The club carnival is scheduled to be held from September 8-19 at the Gold Coast Sports and Leisure Centre.
