    2027 Heart of a Champion
    Co-ed Invitational

    The Heart of a Champion Co-ed Invitational is proud to partner with the American Heart Association to help raise awareness, funds, and donations in support of heart health.This partnership gives our athletes, families, coaches, and spectators the opportunity to be part of something bigger than gymnastics.

    ​

    Throughout the event, HOC will help support the American Heart Association’s mission by encouraging donations and community involvement.The name Heart of a Champion represents more than athletic strength. It celebrates courage, dedication, perseverance, and the heart shown by every gymnast who competes.

     

    By partnering with the American Heart Association, we hope to honor that same spirit while supporting life-saving work that impacts families and communities everywhere.Together, we can celebrate the heart of every champion while helping make a difference for heart health.
