The team name at the Russian Indoor Nationals, Bubble Struggle, indicates that there was a personnel change after the outdoor competition in Germany. Yulia Shuvaeva has replaced Zhanna Kazakova who was in the original Bubble lineup at the indoor meet in May and then won the silver medal for Russia in Saarlouis.
Yulia Shuvaeva had also taken Zhanna Kazakova's slot when she stepped back after a year with the Infra Red Band in 2013. She competed with the team at the FAI World Meet 2014 in Prostejov, and the Infra Red Band then continued for two more years throughout the FAI Mondial 2016 in Ottawa.

TochkaG's point Evgenia Korjova was an original Infra Red Band member. She competed with Bubble Trouble member Zhanna Kazakova at the FAI World Cup 2013 in Banja Luka and continued with the team until the end of the 2016 season.
Marinka Pukareva had joined the Infra Red Band for the 2016 season. She competed at the FAI Mondial 2016 in Ottawa and at the national championships in Tanay. Evgenia Korzhova and Marinka Pukareva then joined forces with Anna Linkova and Anastasia Tupicina for the new TochkaG lineup.
All four team members knew each other from training and competition in Russia. Infra Red Band competed under DZ Grozniy at the national championships in 2016, where Anna Linkova and Anastasia Tupicina were in the Girls lineup. Evgenia Korzhova and Marinka Pukareva won the meet with the Grozniy team before they formed TochkaG for the 2017 season.

The 23.5 average was a very promising start. TochkaG even won a round over Bubble Struggle and tied two other scores.
The 51-pointer for the fast sequence in Round 9 was not only four points better than the Bubble score, it also tied IFS-Moscow's 51-pointer in the same round.
It is the highest indoor score that an all-female team has posted ever since FAI/IPC added indoor competition to the list of sanctioned events with world records. The French Weembi Girls own the current highscore in 4-way Women after the 38-pointer in Round 5 at the FAI Indoor World Meet 2017. TochkaG may take it away from France if Russia files for official recognition. Only 4-way Women team Aerokart Deep Blue ever scored higher with the 59-pointer for the Super Sequence in Round 2 of the World Challenge 2010...
