Jurassic Classic 2010 is the 16th annual invitational gymnastics meet hosted by the University of Calgary. It is Canada’s largest, co-ed invitational gymnastics competition. This year’s meet will features 19 competitive timed sessions for boys and girls ranging in age from 7 to 24. Approximately 700 athletes from 45 clubs will compete in 10 different events throughout the weekend. The participating athletes will be of a Provincial, National or International level, and travel from across Canada, and hopefully China, Europe and the USA.
In 2010, the Jurassic Classic would like to once again support the preparation of our elite athletes by reinstating the team competition. This will only be possible through corporate or individual sponsorship to bring the International athletes to Calgary.
