Two Gold a Silver and 2 Bronze at First competition of the Year

On 25 January, 6 partnerships from Oxford competed in the second Heathrow Open. All of the partnerships were new and 4 of the gymnasts, Ellie, Jasmine, Mungo and Toby were taking part in their very first competition.

The event had attracted a huge entry from the top clubs in the UK and as a result, was scheduled to run for a marathon 12 hours! Its testament to the excellent organisation by the host club that it stayed on time throughout the day and ran very smoothly.

By the end of the day, we had won 2 Gold, a Silver and 2 Bronze medals, taken a hard fought 5th place and been placed 3rd, by just 0.01 of a mark, in the Team Competition.

It was a great way to start the year and just reward for the long hours of hard work that the guys had put into their build up.
