The inaugural South African Gymnastics #Perfect10 showcase took place at the TuksSport Rembrandt Hall, in Pretoria this past weekend.

The event brought some of the best South African gymnasts from different provinces and disciplines together to show off their many talents.

These gymnasts were divided into five different teams, all named after well-known South African animal and bird species. There were the Blue Cranes, the Cheetahs, the Zebras, the Gazelles and the Meerkats.

Eventually Team Meerkats walked away with top honours on the night, winning the SA Gymnastics #Perfect10 Trophy.
