Success in the 3RD Gabrovo Tri Nation Tournament, Bulgaria

MONARCHS ACROBATIC GYMNASTICS CLUB COMPETE IN BULGARIA

4 gymnasts from Monarchs took part in the 3RD Gabrovo Tri Nation Tournament last weekend and came home with armfuls of medals and trophies. Mixed pair Ashley Payne and Katie Hoskins won 3 Silver medals each and helped the Junior team win the silver team trophy. Team mates Monique Walcott and Yanika Johnson took 2 Silver medals each and their team took the Bronze team trophy. This was the first time the club has taken part in this competition and came out very well competing against gymnasts from the Bulgarian national squad as well as some of the best gymnasts from Greece.

Another group of gymnasts from the club are getting ready to compete in Germany next month, including some of the youngest members of the club and we wish them lots of luck with that.

After that the top gymnasts in the club will be competing in the British Tournament in November.

Anyone interested in joining the club please telephone Tony Merrett on 01278 793457.
