Gloucestershire Floor & Vault Championships
June 24th saw this year's Gloucestershire Floor & Vault Championships take place at The Forest of Dean Gymnastics & Fitness Centre Coleford.
This was a very good competition, with clubs from Winterbourne, Chepstow, The Forest of Dean and Cheltenham taking part, and apart from Ellen Thorne that was withdrawn because of ill health the other 3 girls that have remained part of The Gym Centres top group, can feel very proud of a job well done.
