Silver medallists

Silver medallists today in the NW Tariff competition at Grade 2 Tariff 24.

Our small club had only 9 girls entered in this morning's competition, whereas some clubs had up to 30 entrants. The competition was tough, as all the girls were well prepared. One of our trios got the gold in their competition. H's trio got silver in her section. Overall, this was a great result for our club.

H's trio was made up of a 15 yr old, a 12 yr old and a 10 yr old, all of very similar height and build. Their competitors were more mature which can make a huge difference, especially when it comes to confidence and the artistic element (polish). Plus, having a little girl on top thrown around by two stronger, older girls can look really impressive. They did brilliantly!
