Alina Kolomiets (Bulgarian: Алина Коломиец; born 12 October 2006) is a Bulgarian rhythmic gymnast.[1] She represents Bulgaria as part of the national senior group.

Personal life

Kolomiets was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia and began gymnastics there when she was three. Her family moved to Burgas, Bulgaria when she was six.[2]

Career

In May 2018, Kolomiets won bronze with ball at the Bulgarian championships among the pre-juniors, and she won gold in the team championships with teammates Victoria Sahatchieva and Kristina Karcheva.[3][4] In July, she was then selected for a national training camp.[5] In 2021 she, Viktoria Georgieva and Zhana Pencheva won the junior national club championships.[6]

In 2022 she teamed up with Alexandra Alexandrova, Viktoria Georgieva, Mila Yanakieva and Hristina Parvanova to win the national group championships.[7] At nationals she came in 8th place.[8] At the state team championships, she helped her club Levski Triaditsa win silver.[9]

In 2023 she was added to the national senior individual team as a reserve member.[10] In December 2024, several members of the national group, Kamelia Petrova, Margarita Vasileva and Magdalina Minevska, retired. Following this, although Kolimiets had previously competed as an individual, she became a starting member of the national group. Her teammates were Sofia Ivanova (who became the new captain of the group), Rachel Stoyanov, Danaya Atanasova, Suzan Pouladian and Viktoria Georgieva. Sofia Pavlova and Ivon Boshkilova were the reserve members.[11][12]

In April 2025, the new group debuted at their domestic World Cup stage in Sofia, where they were 4th in the all-around and won gold with 5 ribbons.[13] At their next World Cup in Baku, they won gold in the all-around and bronze with 3 balls & 2 hoops.[14]
