Gwinnett arena to host women's gymnastics championships
The Arena at Gwinnett Center in Duluth will host the 2012 NCAA women’s gymnastics championships.
The championships, hosted by Georgia Tech, will take place April 20-22. In recent years the event has drawn 14,000 to 15,000 people over three days. Preston Williams, chief executive of the Gwinnett Convention and Visitors Bureau, said the bureau hopes to top that attendance mark.
The Arena at Gwinnett Center hosted the NCAA women’s basketball championship in 2009 and has hosted numerous Southeastern Conference events.
