Dav Pierre

Head Coach

I am the boy’s program director at the Gymnastics Academy of Atlanta and currently the State Chairman for Georgia men’s gymnastics. From being a founding member of GAA’s men’s team to becoming its coach I’ve had the opportunity to have a hand in the history and the evolution of this team. A team that has produced not only champions from the local to the national stage, but also men of great character. As a member of Georgia’s gymnastics community, I’ve had the opportunity to contribute to raising the level of gymnastics in our state.

Why Georgia United?
I want to help ensure that there’s a place for the guys that are still hungry to grow and compete in this sport.

Nathan Gruwell, Kennesaw State, #66

I am a junior at Kennesaw State University studying data science and analytics. I am training all around with a focus on the floor, vault, and parallel bars. My goal is to lead Georgia United to a higher level than before and push myself on skills that I previously thought were unattainable.

Why Georgia United?
I wanted to pursue gymnastics at a level above club gymnastics, and Georgia United helps me facilitate that. Being able to compete with this fantastic team while being able to go to college in state is amazing.

Aaron Weinberg, Kennesaw State, #17

I am a Junior at Kennesaw State University studying Exercise Science with a concentration in pre-medicine. This season I plan to work/compete all 6 events and strive to push myself to a highly competitive level.

Why Georgia United?
I decided to do Georgia United as I felt like I still had more to accomplish. As I started gymnastics later than most, I found exponential growth towards my finals years in the sport, but finished my high school career feeling like I hadn’t reached my peak. Georgia United and GymACT presented me with an opportunity to grow with incredible coaching, and a new, higher level of competition.

Chad Quermann, Kennesaw State, #27

I am a junior at KSU studying marketing. I will compete as a pommel horse specialist this season.

Why Georgia United?
I joined GAU because the team environment is unbeatable and the coaches are amazing.

Cooper Wood, Gadsden State, #25

I am a full time gymnastics coach in Alabama! I train and compete floor and rings.

Why Georgia United?
I had always wanted to continue gymnastics after high school, but I wasn’t sure what that looked like. After looking into GA United I realized it was the perfect option.

Joe Maddox, Kennesaw State, #77

I am a junior at Kennesaw State and currently studying coaching. I have done gymnastics for 9 years and currently train Floor, Parallel Bars, Rings, and Pommel.

Why Georgia United?
I chose Georgia United because gymnastics has always been part of my life. When I heard that I could keep pursuing that dream throughout my college career, I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity. GAU for the win!

I’m a Junior at Kennesaw State pursuing a degree in Finance. I’ve been competing in gymnastics for the past 14 years and have been coaching gymnastics for the last 5, most recently at Amplitude Gymnastics.

I chose Georgia United because I always wanted to compete gymnastics in college and this program has an amazing team environment with a great coaching staff.

Sam Maddox, Kennesaw State, #22

What’s up! I am Sam, and I am pushing to be a GA firefighter. I am a pommel horse specialist with the goal of competing another event when I am healthy enough to do so.

Why Georgia United?
I chose GA United because the offer they give to those that still have a drive for the sport after high school is too good to be true!

Alex Skomorokhov, University of North Georgia, #08

I am a freshman at UNG with plans to pursue a degree in psychology while training and competing with Georgia United. I’m a Level 10 gymnast and a dedicated coach, currently balancing my time between training, coaching, and growing in the sport. I plan on training floor, rings, vault, and high bar.

Why Georgia United?
I wanted to continue competing at a high level while staying in Georgia, and Georgia United gave me that opportunity. Being able to attend UNG while still chasing my goals in gymnastics made this team the perfect fit. I’m committed to helping grow the program and pushing myself to the next level in and out of the gym.

My goal with Georgia United is to continue to pursue the sport I love, stay in shape, and motivate other gymnasts to keep training beyond JO/NCAA gymnastics

Why Georgia United?
Simple. Georgia United gave me an opportunity to keep doing gymnastics on a competitive level. We have an amazing squad full of really great guys. And I think it’s a perfect plan for anyone wanting to do gymnastics past JO or NCAA!

I’m committed to grow this rising team, while putting in the work to contribute all that I can.
