On Sunday 29th November the
Notts. School of Gymnastics boys, were joined by an audience
of family members and friends of the club, in an exciting
afternoon of skill demonstration and fun choreographed group
routines.
The skills element showed the
progress from starter skills through the full elite in each
discipline.
The fun group routines mainly
arranged by the coaches, allowed the gymnasts to dress up
and combine musical movement with basic gymnastic elements.
A head-lining crowd pleaser had to be "leader of the pack".
The senior gymnasts found their feminine side, dressed in
full drag, "oohhing" and "arhhing" to Jake's manly display
of macho skills. ...for me they seemed a little too
comfortable in these roles. Rumour has it that Claire
Starkey in interested in transferring them to her team.
The event was mainly compèred
by Head Coach, Barry Winch who engaged the audience despite
a poor quality PA system.
The silent auction, the main
live auction, raffle, tombola and refreshments all
contributed to a tremendous fundraising running total, for
which the club is truly grateful.
Once again thanks to everyone
who helped in whatever way to make this event a success.
