2015 CITY OF JESOLO TROPHY



The nominative list has some exciting news. If all goes as planned, Gabrielle Douglas and Aly Raisman will make their first appearances since the 2012 Olympics in elite level competition. Gymnasts will be performing new skills and routines in their first test of the year. National Team Coordinator Martha Karolyi will use this competition to help
field teams for later in the year and gymnasts will feel the pressure to prove themselves early on. Other senior gymnasts include Olympic and World Champion Kyla Ross and back-to-back World All- Around Champion Simone Biles. New senior Bailie Key will get her first chance to see where she stacks up in the senior field. USA will also be sending a stacked junior team including reigning National Champion Jazmyn Foberg and her MG Elite teammate Laurie Hernandez, Chow’s gymnasts Norah Flatley and Victoria Nguyen, and 2014 Secret Classic champion Jordan Chiles.The senior nominative list is:
Alexandra Raisman, Brestyan’s
Gabrielle Douglas, Buckeye
Mykayla Skinner, Desert Lights
 Kyla Ross, Gym Max
Simone Biles, World Champions Gym
Emily Schild, Everest Gymnastics
Alyssa Baumann, WOGA
Bailie Key, Texas Dreams

 One of the exciting aspects of the City of Jesolo Trophy is that there is also an opportunity for many talented juniors to get international experience. Just one year away from the Olympics, it is as important for many of the juniors who will turn senior next year to make a good impression as the seniors. The top juniors in the running are all on the nominative list. Of the following list, only Jordan Chiles and Victoria Nguyen are not age eligible for the 2016 Olympics.
 Norah Flatley, Chow’s Gymrnastics
 Jazmyn Foberg, MG Elite
 Lauren Hernandez, MG Elite
Olivia Trautman, Twin City Twisters
