FRIDAY, 21st of May
Friday's groups all-around finished with the Russian group winning in front of the girls from Belarus and Israel.

Nataliya Leshyk (BLR), winner Crystal Rose Cup for Juniors |
The best junior of the competition was Nataliya Leshyk from Belarus followed by Alexandra Merkulova from Russia and Viktoria Filanovsky from Israel.
The Russian girl was leading after two exercises, but did a very unlucky clubs exercise with a lot of drops and missed risks what made her loose the gold.
The medals were presented to the winners by Inna Zhukova (BLR), silver medallist in rhythmic gymnastics in Beijing 2008.

SATURDAY, 22nd May
... Russian Evgenia Kanaeva winning with 116,050 points ahead of her teammate Daria Dimitrieva - getting even a 10 in artistic value for her hoop exercise.
This is the first time with the new code that the judges gave full points for one of the three partial scores that compose the final result. Until today, nobody got 30,000 points for an exercise, what means scoring 10 in all partial marks, but if a gymnast can achieve this right now, it can be only Kanaeva.
On third place came local Belorussian Melitina Staniouta who seemed to be quiet nervous in her last exercise with hoop and made some little mistakes.
Fourth place went to Liubov Charkashyna from Belarus, too, and fifth to Aliya Garaeva from Azerbaidjan.
