We supported the 44th year of the Bučovice Cup for students in gymnastics.

On the first Saturday of November, nearly sixty gymnasts from all over Moravia and Silesia filled the sports hall of ZŠ 710 to compete for the Student Cup. The attractiveness of the competition was enhanced by the fact that there was no clear favourite, making the results for teams and individuals completely open. The mayor of the city, Mr. Jiří Horák, and the mayor of Sokol Bučovice, Mr. Petr Hanák, also supported the start of the competition with their presence.

The cup for the winners in the team competition was lifted by the gymnasts of Gymnastics Zlín A, who managed to narrowly defeat SGC Ostrava thanks to the exceptionally balanced performances of the entire team. The third place went to Valašské Meziříčí. The teams from the hosting club in Bučovice finished in 14th and 19th place.

The individual competition was even more thrilling, as the first place was ultimately achieved by Magdaléna Stiaková (SGC Ostrava), who managed to beat second-placed Diana Novokshonova (Gymnastics Zlín) by just 0.05 points. Lucie Navrátilová (TJ Prostějov) was awarded the bronze medal. The best representative from Bučovice, Iveta Kohoutková, secured a very good 33rd place.

The competition then peaked with the final event on the balance beam, where the seven best gymnasts from the main competition advanced. The all-around winner, Magdalén Stiaková, confidently confirmed her qualities and also won this final. The silver position was taken by Gabriela Emma Kroupová (SGC Znojmo), and Lucie Navrátilová secured third place, thereby winning her second overall bronze.

The Bučovice Sports Gymnastics Club thanks all its supporters and sponsors, Brother Jindra Vaníček's district, and the City of Bučovice for their support of this exceptionally successful event.
