Fourteen gymnasts from Weston Aerobic Gymnastics have been selected for Great Britain to take part in the World Cup in Portugal.

The club has gymnasts representing every age group of national squad, from the young age group of 10-11 years, through youth and juniors up to seniors.

They are also proud to have boys and mixed pairs selected in every age category.

Weston AGC gymnasts have been selected for national squad and represented Great Britain for several years. The club continues to nurture new talent and this year has three gymnasts selected for the first time.

These gymnasts are working hard preparing to represent Great Britain in Portugal at the World Cup and will be preparing for the selection event for the World Championships held in Korea during June.
