Last year, the competition took place in a weird atmosphere, after the Paris attacks and the threat on our country. But there was no way the organisers would cancel the event. And this year, the list of participating countries is once again amazing!

We don't have the complete list of gymnasts, but some names are known : Romania's Ioana Crisan and Olivia Cimpian, both bronze medalist at this year European Juniors Championships, will be there, as well as the Netherlands' Sanna Veerman and Naomi Visser. France will be represented by Alisson Lapp and Célia Serber. For Belgium, Chloé LeblicqCassia Priels or Fien Enghels are also expected to compete. But gymnasts from Spain, Sweden, Czech Republic or Canada will also try to in gold this weekend.

Schedule
* Saturday 26 November, 6pm : all-around final
* Sunday 27 November, 3pm : team and event finals
