National Grade 8 Finals - 24th April 2010 Well done to Amelia who took part in her first National final at the weekend she competed both individually and as part of the Yorkshire team. First up was floor where Amelia was the first to compete! Apart from a small mistake on her spin she completed a beautiful routine with legs together in all of her flicks and hardly a step at the end of each tumbling line. Vault came next where she managed to score 12 improving on her performance from regionals, Bars was the third piece  where she performed a solid team routine with good casts and no steps after her pike shoot to give her a 11.650. Last up was the beam and although for most this is their least favored piece for Amelia this is her best she was up first to give a steady and solid performance for the team, and she did! Hardly a wobble and a very confident routine earning her 2nd place individually on the beam. The Yorkshire team came in 5th (the highest placed team of the weekend) and got to step forwards and present at the end. Well done to the team and to Amelia!

First up was Eden Brown (Grade G) and one of the Youngest Representatives of the club at only 9 years old, she performed superbly on her Set Routine putting her in the gold medal position however a dodgy 3/4 turnover to back meant she slipped down the rankings to come 16th still a great effort for her first competition. Next was Heather Carter (who came back from Birmingham for the comp!) and Amelia Dingley (Grade F) both performed well however with some small errors, including Amelia putting the wrong move into one of her routines, they finished 4th and 5th respectively. The last Group to compete was Ellen Brown and Amy Noble (Grade F) and Jack McFarlane, Courtney Gorman and Bronwyn McMurrough (Grade G). All did some beautiful routines and Ellen and Amy not only finished 1st and 2nd but also qualified to move up to the next Grade! Courtney and Bronwyn finished with exactly the same score however on count back Brony just beat Courtney into the 4th Spot.  Jack pulled out some very clean and controlled routines to finish in 2nd place.
