From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Camilla Pfeffer (born 24 January 1993 in Filderstadt) is a German rhythmic gymnast.[1] She has competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Camilla Pfeffer trains at the DTB National Team Centre Fellbach-Schmiden (Federal Training Centre for Rhythmic Gymnastics and Sports Boarding School) and lives in Tübingen and Fellbach. The chemistry student at the University of Stuttgart starts for TSV Schmiden and is trained by Natalia Stsiapanava, Ekaterina Kotelikova and Vladimir Komkov. Their special equipment is the tyres. Pfeffer learned her sport from Nadja Protasova at TSG Tübingen. Her greatest success in the junior category was her participation in the 2008 European Junior Championships in Turin, where she was tenth in the team with Sara Radman.

In 2009, Pfeffer managed the seamless transition from junior to performance level. As the oldest athlete and captain, she was initially the central element around which the newly designed national team was built for the next Olympic Games. The first international women's championship was the World Championships of the Year in Mie. There she became 13th with Maike Deuschle, Johanna Gabor, Radman and Karolina Raskina in the group all-around and 13th in the second equipment group, 14th in the first equipment group. At the European Championships in spring 2010 in Bremen, Pfeffer missed out on a medal with Cathrin Puhl, Radman, Mira Bimperling, Raskina and Regina Sergeeva in the team competition as fourth place behind Russia, Italy and Belarus only by one place. With Radman, Puhl, Bimperling and Sergeeva she was also fourth in the first and second apparatus group. In the autumn of that year, the World Championships followed in Moscow, where Pfeffer finished eighth in the team with Radman, Puhl, Bimperling and Sergeeva and fifth in the first and second apparatus groups in the same line-up. At the World Championships one year later in Montpellier she reached sixth place in the group all-around with Radman, Puhl, Nicole Müller, Bimperling and Sergeeva as well as seventh place in the first and fifth place in the second apparatus group. With sixth place, the team qualified directly for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Before the Games, she was still in action at the 2012 European Championships in Nizhny Novgorod. In the group all-around she reached ninth place with Judith Hauser, Müller, Radman, Puhl and Bimperling. In the same line-up, the group took tenth place at the Olympic Games in London. After the Olympic Games, Pfeffer ended her sporting career in rhythmic gymnastics.
