Delight as Hamilton Gymnastics Club hold annual recreational competition

More than 200 gymnasts took part in Hamilton Gymnastics Club’s annual recreational competition last month.

The recreational competition on Saturday, February 12, was the first such event the club were able to hold, post-Covid restrictions.

Gymnasts attended the competition throughout the day on the Saturday and competed with Level A, B, C, D or Disability.

Each child showed off their floor and vault skills to the judges that they had been working on in weekly sessions for a month prior to the competition.

Coach Amy Livingstone said: “It was lovely to be able to hold our first recreational competition post-Covid, and the parents were overjoyed to be able to watch as well.
