FROM one era to another, the next generation of aspiring gymnasts are celebrating being back in their happy place.
There will have been high spirits among British team members after the announcement of the squad for the Rhythmic Gymnastics European Championships in Bulgaria, but that excitement was probably equalled by the return of budding gymnasts at Wire Gymnastics Club.
Having made do with online Zoom sessions for so long, the club reopened its doors on May 17 for under 18s group sessions.
“Our gymnasts were very excited to return to the gym, they feel strong, prepared physically and mentally and they couldn’t wait to be back on the equipment and with their teammates,” said Ema Doherty, head coach at Wire Gymnastics Club.
