Tumbling National Finals

Categories // Acro

Tumbling - NDP Grades Finals 2013

Fenton Manor Sports Complex, 1-2 June

Tumbling NDP Results 2013

Five tumblers recently competed in their first annual National finals in Stoke on Trent. All of the gymnasts exceeding their own expectations and also learned a lesson on what to expect next time. They held their heads high and all proudly represented their club to the best of their ability, competing against some tough competition. Lessons have been learnt and fuelled the competitive fire within those that attended. It was great to see all of the hard work put in before the competition pay off with some well deserved results. The performance of the day goes to our previous gymnast of the month Harvey Kay. He gets a very big pat on the back for some great tumbles and dedicated hard work, which did show in his result, scoring a massive 9.4 out of 10 on his final tumble.

The final results are as follows;
Harvey Kay 5th
Ellie Rhodes 7th
Joshua Miller 6th
Chloe Gell 9th
Emily Heslin 9th

Well done to all of the above gymnasts, you represented your club with honour and honoured you coaches by trying your best. Keep up the good work and keep working hard to make sure you have the best chance of returning next year.
