The WBTF Managing Committee met today to finalize plans going forward.  Present at the conference: Sandi Wiemers, Nicky O’Neill, Paul Rutten, Jeff Johnson, Moto Tsuchiya, Paola DeMarchi, Jackie Stewart, Jean Michel Ruelle, and Karen Cammer.

Twirlers!

Given the period of great difficulty we are all facing, is time to show that our spirit to meet, train and compete has not changed!

Therefore, we thought about #APARTBUTTOGETHER, hoping to involve also the other Twirling federations around the world! To feel less lonely and shorten the time before we can start again.

What we ask you is simple: - Take a picture of yourself holding the baton - Add the hashtag #apartbuttogether - Share it on your social media with the # and tag us!

It is true that we are apart but we will make it!
