It’s a dream come true! Rhythmic gymnast Alexandra Kiroi-Bogatyreva has officially made the Australian team headed for the Paris Olympics.

It is a prize and recognition of hard work. It is a hard earned spot that was paid for with sweat, tears, blood and sore muscles. But most of all it is the excitement of standing together with athletes, from different countries, from different sports, and sharing this dream together.

Alexandra Kiroi-Bogatyreva

I actually am in awe of her grit and determination. And how she is a real professional athlete. A strong-minded character. That’s really needed for high performance sport.

Katie Mitchell

I am really thankful for this opportunity, for the trust placed in me to help the team do their best. I will use my knowledge and good experience to deliver my best for Australia.
