Sánchez’s performance comes as no surprise. In August, she became the first Costa Rican gymnast to compete in the Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships in Rio de Janeiro. This international experience clearly elevated her competitive edge, evident in the high difficulty of her routines at the national competition.

The Senior category featured other talented athletes, including Alexa Baltodano (Artzu), Galilea Álvarez (Harmony), Amanda Ávila, and Valentina Fonseca (Club Calderón). However, Sánchez’s performance was unmatched.

In the Aro event, Artzu and Harmony athletes swept the podium, with Sánchez taking gold, Baltodano silver, and Álvarez bronze. The Ball event saw Álvarez secure silver and Ávila bronze, while Sánchez maintained her gold-medal streak.

While Sánchez’s victory was undisputed, the competition for silver and bronze demonstrated the increasing level of talent in Costa Rican rhythmic gymnastics. The Championship hosted over 343 athletes from 14 different sporting associations, showcasing the growth of the discipline across the country.

The event, organized by the Costa Rican Gymnastics Federation (FDGA) with support from the Costa Rican Institute of Sport and Recreation (ICODER), featured athletes from clubs including Agira, Artzu, Asogira, Club Calderón, Caribbean Queens, Dulcehe, GyMart, Harmony, Shalom, Kairós, Meraki, Moreli, Rítmica Occidente, and Stars.
