What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreHe loves the thrill of flipping through the air and the variety of mastering different events. Because he has a natural ability, he enjoys working hard to unlock tough new skills. He also loves how gymnastics builds elite balance, agility, and core strength. He knows these physical tools give him a huge physical advantage and translate perfectly into finding success in any other sport he tries.
He finds daily motivation on the floor from his coach and Olympic medalist Frederick 'Flips' Richard. Off the floor, his biggest inspiration is his mum. She has watched almost every single one of his practices over the past two years, and that constant, dedicated support gives him the ultimate confidence to take risks and excel in his sport
My proudest moment was watching him score a perfect 10.00 on all four events at a recent competition, finishing with a flawless 40.00 all-around score. Seeing a perfect, historic milestone like that across an entire meet was incredible. It completely proved how much his natural ability and intense hard work pay off.
