 European Championships 2010

The European Championships are due to take place in the last 2 weeks of April and we are proud to announce that Huntingdon gymnasts Cameron MacKenzie and Sam Oldham have been selected as part of the Junior team with fellow gymnast Max Bennett as reserve. Daniel Keatings and Louis Smith have both been selected as part of the Senior team. The championships, being held in Birmingham this year, promises to be an extremely exciting event and we look forward to our boys performing to the best of their ability.  In preparation for the Euros, the Junior team competed in a 4 Way international last weekend in Ipswich. GB took the gold medal, with Switzerland taking silver and France taking bronze. Germany took the 4th place. Likewise, our seniors had their 3 Way international this weekend and GB also took the gold medal with Belarus taking the silver medal and Switzerland the bronze. 

Our recreational programme has also seen some action: The end of last term saw the Annual Recreational competition being held over 2 days with entries from all our recreational classes – encompassing our 5 year olds through to our 14 year olds. On Thursday evening it was the turn for the boys to show their skills through the performance of their routines – and our congratulations to the overall Champion of the evening - David Ho. The Friday evening was split into 3 competitions – to accommodate all the girls – and the overall Champion for this category was Kimberly Robinson. A great time was had by all and thanks go to the many parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who supported the gymnasts with their encouragement and their cheers. Thanks must also go to our many volunteers who helped with selling of teas, coffees, cakes and raffle tickets. And special thanks to Gordon Baird whose company QAV (a company which provides production services for live events) kindly sponsored the medals and the certificates.

On Saturday 25th October the Huntingdon Gymnastics club held the county qualifying competition for regional recreational apparatus finals. It was a very successful day that saw girls from the squads and the new competitive group, run by recreational head coach Clare Rodwell receive medals on all apparatus in all age groups. These results are especially significant as the recreational gymnasts have minimal time to practice on the apparatus and the fact that they won medals is a reflection of the skill, hard work and effort put in by all concerned.  The final will be held in Ipswich on Nov 22nd and we wish all our qualifiers good luck!

  

 Attention all Recreational Gymnasts:  Booking forms for the next 11 week term are due after half term - so if you don't want to lose your place, please return the form to the office promptly so that we can book you in.  Fees of £60 will then be payable during week beginning 24th November.
