Alisha Evanson has been selected to represent Great Britain at the World Age Group Championships at the Birmingham Arena in November 2023.

This is a dream come true for her and her family. She was selected to represent England earlier in the year along with Ethan Spencer another very talented tumbler who trains at the club with coach Mark Hudson. They have both been selected to represent England at an International competition in Portugal at the end of October. Alisha now has a second International competition to look forward to and work hard for.

The development of these two tumblers has been excellent and we look forward to their results and we hope more than anything that they enjoy their experiences.

Good Luck to you both and do your families and club proud.

 

What a great competition for our Trampolinists and Tumblers during September at the Birmingham Arena. Tristan Franks won the Mens Levels 3 Tumbling Competition, Felix Thomas gained a well deserved Trampolining Silver Medal, Maria Antrobus came an excellent 4th and Max Berry 14th which is a great result all around for such a big competition for these young gymnasts.

Milly Jackson came a credible 5th against a large field of tumblers at level 3 women’s with three nailed runs. Justin Graham had only just started tumbling after 9  onths of training and he came 7th against stiff opposition with three good runs which all stood up.

Thanks to Jack, Zoe and Mark for coaching these gymnasts to success

Our Womens’ squad competed in Liverpool and came home with a list of great results for the team. Thanks to Alisha & Jasmine for all their hard work in helping the gymnasts reach their goals.

Amazing round with Georgia becoming bar champion, Isabelle placing 3rd vault , 4th bars , 5th overall

Amelia placing 5th beam , 4th Floor , 1st bars and overall champion!

Great work from Beau 2nd on floor , 5th bars, great work from Pearl putting new skills out and getting a beam queen , both received judges awards

Vault Champion for Isla and 6th Overall! Beam Queen awards for all three gymnasts! Well done WAG team

Well done to Tom for passing his Level 2 Trampolining qualification and we wish good luck to Jasmine, Krzysztof and Laura who are currently doing their level 3 and 4 qualifications.

 

Alisha and Ethan have been issued their kit for the forthcoming International Events in Belgium and Portugal which they are both really excited about. We will keep everyone updated with their progress as we go through the year.

 

Our coaches have spent the day going through all the latest updates on all aspects of first aid responder training with Reach First Aid trainers. The coaches enjoyed the course with Roger Pickering @reach_first_aid who was a very knowledgeable and engaging trainer. Hopefully with the new investment of life saving equipment (Defibrillator) at the club we will be ready to assist members in their hour of need.

 

Huge thanks to our AMAZING new judges Cristine, Helen & Mia, our helpers Ellie & Darcie and our great youngsters Charlotte, Mason, Ella & Zak! Well done for all your hard work Alisha & Jasmine coaching and organising our first friendly WAG Comp!

A good result from our tumblers who attended the English Silver Tumbling Championships at the Telford International Centre in June. Harry managed a silver medal in the 13-14 years regional 4 category and Tristan also got a bronze medal in the regional 3 – 15 years plus after just returning to the sport after some time. A great performance from Justin in the regional 4 15 years plus category who is new to the sport of tumbling and who managed a 4th place just outside the medals. Milly, who tried her first double somersault in competition but didn’t manage to nail the landing, came in 11th place in the regional 3 15 years plus category in a large field of competitors with all tumblers scoring personal best scores for their tumbles.

Lots of new moves to learn to increase and keep up with the top tumblers in the country over the next few months, keep up the good work!

Everyone knows how important it is to keep well hydrated especially for young athletes!
