Seems like a confirmation that Romania’s MAG program is rather, you know, say, dormant?

It’s so funny you say that because I’ve been putting up world championships results that predate my website to keep an archive and did 2015 MAG over the weekend. I truly couldn’t believe Romania was 14th and earned a bid to the Olympic Test Event to try and qualify a team. It’s WILD and kinda devastating that just 10 years later they aren’t sending a single athlete.

And to think just a few years back, their juniors were also showing promise, such as the Burtanete twins…
LikeLike
Yes!! They were so good and I really thought they’d usher in a new MAG era, it’s so sad to see them not really pan out. Just such a poorly mismanaged program.

Same with their WAG program for years. Thankfully for the girls though, things seem to be getting better lately. Hope it will continue and that a resurgence will also happen for the MAG program soon.
