Recently tumbling and acrobatic gymnasts from Andover Gymnastics Club competed in the British Tumbling and Acrobatics Championships at Fenton Manor in Stoke-on-Trent
The first age group of tumblers included Jenna Barrett (nine-ten years). Her first run was disappointing but she worked hard to compose herself before the second run which she performed well. Kaylum Batchelor and Jamie Stanley were in the 11-12 age band and both performed cleanly to qualify for the finals in third and fourth place. In the finals Jamie produced his best ever tumbling runs to claim the silver medal, with Kaylum winning bronze.
