The golden girls from Spalding Gymnastic Club showcased their talent once again at the National Roses competition.

The Cradge Bank-based club picked up a staggering total of 112 finishes of fourth place or better – which included a host of gold, silver and bronze medals.

A total of 318 gymnasts took part in the unique competition, which saw a great range of gymnastics from differing clubs.

Spalding was again chosen as the venue for the popular event, which was hosted by Arabian Gymnastic Club from Bletchley.

The annual event was a resounding success yet again – and it ended with a group dance competition.

The Spalding squad excelled on that front too as they finished as impressive runners-up.

A Spalding Gymnastic Club statement said: “It was a very long day which was made enjoyable by the results and hard work by all involved.”
