A young gymnastics team recently competed in the IAPS National Gymnastics Championships.

The girls, from Inglefield House, the preparatory school of Haberdashers Monmouth School for Girls, took part in the 2-day event held at The Blue Coat School, Birmingham.

With three members new to the competition, they relied on the support from the rest of the squad who had competed last year.

A highlight was the U11 group sequence, in which all four members of the team had to complete a timed floor routine to music.

The U10 team worked hard throughout the competition and gained valuable experience, while the U11s did very well to finish in 5th place and each received a medal for their efforts.
