Without the strong team of coaches, volunteers and committee members at Suki, it would have been possible.

The competition had started on Saturday with a brand new level of IAC (introductory aerobic code).

Suki entered five teams, with the youngest gymnast just five years old, and were delighted with the way they performed picking up a gold and a bronze medal in the category one under-10 age group, as well as taking fourth and sixth positions.

In the category one age group 11 level the Suki team got the gold medal scoring 85.7.
