The 2010 American Cup will be held in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Looks like USA Gymnastics is migrating east. The sport’s governing body in the U.S. announced a few days ago that the 2010 U.S. Championships will be held in Hartford, Conn. And now:
USA Gymnastics today announced that the 2010 Tyson American Cup will be held at the DCU Center in Worcester, Mass., on March 6. This will be the first time this prestigious international invitational has been held in Massachusetts.
“Worcester and the DCU Center will be a great location for the Tyson American Cup, which has a storied tradition of previewing the world’s top gymnasts,” said Steve Penny, president of USA Gymnastics. “This event remains an important cornerstone in the showcasing of our elite athletes as they prepare for international competition at its highest level, including the World Championships and the Olympic Games.”
Massachusetts Sports Partnership, Destination Worcester, and the SMG-managed DCU Center, worked together to attract the event to Central Massachusetts.
