South East Regional Grades - Guildford – 11th/12th March

5 of our youngest gymnasts travelled to Guildford to compete at the South East Regional Grade 6. This was the first grading competition for all of these gymnasts who turn 8 years of age within this competition year. All performed extremely well passing their grade with distinction. Overall results saw Georgia place 18^th, Anna 13^th, Poppy 4^th, Lara 3^rd and Arabella 2^nd. Each of the girls also had a top 6 placing on at least 1 of the 5 apparatus that they competed on. This is a great achievement for these girls with good experience gained from this.

Elena, Sophie and Jaia competed in the Regional Grade 3 competition. A couple of mistakes kept Jaia in 21st place overall with team mate Sophie finishing 10^th overall in the 05+ age group, passing their grade with commendation. Both girls had a top 5 placing on 2 of their apparatus. Elena competed in the 06 age group finishing in a well deserved 4^th place overall with a top 6 placing on 3 of her 5 apparatus and passing her grade with distinction.
