ABOUT THIS COMPETITION

This is the biggest and most prestigious artistic gymnastics competition in Bulgaria, the National Artistic Gymnastics Championships. It is open to all registered Bulgarian artistic gymnasts in the country, and it consists of 2 days of competition for senior male and female gymnasts. The first day consists of the Team National competitions, All-around, and Qualifications for the individual National Finals. The second day is for the Individual National Finals on all of the gymnastics apparatuses. The best 8 gymnasts on each gymnastics apparatus qualify for the Individual National Gymnastics Finals.

MY PERFORMANCE

THE GREATEST COMEBACK IN MY LIFE.

After breaking my left ankle (during a training session on the rings, just a few hours after my grandma passed away) in the summer of 2009, and undergoing an urgent surgical intervention (which involved the insertion of 2 pins to fix the bones in place), I made a recovery, and I was ready for my greatest comeback. Twelve month after the incident, I competed on the Rings, once again representing my University team (A-Gym NSA G.C.), and I qualified for the National Men's Rings Final. This was my fourth time competing at the National Gymnastics Championships in my sports career. I was ranked 5th in the National Final, which is my greatest achievment so far.
