On Sunday 13th December at Notts Gymnastics Academy we had our very first Double Downie day. Gymnasts from all over the country came to take part in a training session with Becky and Ellie Downie, they were also joined by Notts other elite squad members including England squad members Jessica Coombs and Caitlin Williams, BG squad members Scarlett Williams, Isla Lees and Ramiyah Kofi and 2014 Espoir floor champion Laura Kaletha.

The gymnasts took part in a 3 hour session led by Becky, Ellie and Notts high performance and senior coaches. All gymnasts also had the opportunity to ask the Double Downie's questions, have photographs and autographs with the girls. 

The whole day was fantastic and enjoyable experience for all, the feedback has been so amazing that we will be anonouncing more dates in 2016. Keep an eyeout on our website, facebook and twitter for details.
