The Insider caught up with 2023 Philippines Asian Games team member Sammy Macasu at our High Tech Camp prior to leaving for the Asian Games. Sammy talks about having the opportunity to represent the Philippines and compete on the international stage. Both her parents are Filipinos and she is looking forward to representing her families heritage and making her new country proud. She also talks about her “”Trials”” experience on zoom and looks forward to all the experience has to offer.
Training Thursday: Yurchenko Entry Speed with Dave Anthony
presented by Tumbl Trak
The quickness of the arms from the round off to the back handspring is important for success in the Yurchenko vault. Universal Gymnasts head coach Dave Anthony gives us a drill that gives that feel for the arm throw and the connection to the vault table. Dave explains the drill and uses three of our Region 5 athletes Bailee Norris (Flytz), Macy Nihart (Capitol City) and Layla Bobek (Universal) to demonstrate the drill and break it down to show what you want to see as well as what you don’t want to see.

Bucharest Romania- This past weekend two from Region 5 competed at the Romanian National Championships/ International Competition. Lilia Cosman (Capitol City Flips), who has been training and competing in Romanian for the past year, finished 3rd all around in the Romanian Senior Championships to make national team. She would have placed 5th in the Trophy (only 2 per country allowed to place and she was the 3rd Romanian in the rankings). She was a member of the winning Romanian team at the RomGym Trophy.
Lilia competed in the beam finals (Romanian Championships) placing 2nd with a 12.95. She has taken to the new trend of the switch leap mount to switch 1/2 to Acro skill hers being a back handspring swing down. Lilia also has a very nice aerial layout step that was very solid.
A surprise at the competition was 2023 Level 10 DEV National Qualifier Lisa Szeibert from JPAC, who competed at the Romanian National Championships and finished 12th all around in the senior division. She also had the opportunity to compete in three event finals on bars, beam and floor.
Lisa was in Romania visiting family for a few weeks and trained at a gym while she was there. She was invited to come train and compete at nationals.
Yes people our Region 5 International group is growing!
