Teen gymnast takes Western Canada Cup
After contributing to Team Saskatchewan’s Western Canada Cup win, a Prince Albert gymnast is skipping the Nationals in favour of a long-awaited international event.
Grade 11 student Brent Ertman earned bronze in tumbling over the weekend in Port Moody, B.C. He and eight other gymnasts were a part of the top overall team at the competition.
This is the first time Team Saskatchewan has taken the honour at the Westerns since the mid-80s.
Ertman performed in tumbling, trampoline, and double mini trampoline. He was the most satisfied with the tumbling event.
