KENDAL Gymnastics Club's Level Four team led the way with an excellent performance against the region’s top clubs to take a fifth place ribbon in the first ever North of England Regional Team Championships.

To get the team score the highest three of the five scores on each of the four pieces of apparatus are taken into account.

The team consisted of Florence Place, Sarah Dixon, Chloe Sanderson, Amelia Edwards and Jamie-Lea Trickett.

They were well supported by the Level Seven and Level Six teams who both finished in a respectable seventh place.
