Gymnasts from Witham are setting their sights on a vital qualifier for the British Team Championships early next year.

The Gyrus team, who train at the Bramston Sports Centre, travel to Orpington, Kent, next month, and need to finish in the top 60 per cent of competitors.

If they are successful they will be going for glory at the British Championships which will be taking place in Newcastle in March.

Floor show - Gyrus gymnasts Dofia Ferreira, Sarah Allen, Emily Kidd, Haley Simpson, Lisa Turnbull, Jenny Harris, Grace Westwood, Nicola Drummond and Kitty Keay.
