Three Maltese rhythmic gymnasts will be travelling to Estonia this week to take part in the prestigious Miss Valentine competition.
The competition, which brings together some of the world’s top rhythmic gymnasts, will be held at the University of Tartu Multisports Hall between February 28 and March 3.
Malta will be represented by three gymnasts, namely Lauren Agius, Therese Amelie Vassallo, and Chezonelle Georgette Azzopardi. They will be accompanied by coach Elena Vella.
The competition is set to be a great experience for the three young Maltese gymnasts who will be given the opportunity to compete in an event that will showcase some of the world’s best athletes in the sport.
Last year, the tournament attracted 745 gymnasts from 37 countries and this year’s Miss Valentine competition is set to be one of the biggest ever to be held as organisers are celebrating the 30th anniversary since its foundation.
With the Paris Olympics only a few months away, the competition is set to attract some of the world’s best gymnasts, including Viktoriia Onopriienko, who represented Ukraine at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and won bronze at the World Championships in Valencia last year.
