Both gymnasts will compete against the best DMT gymnasts from the UK in the age and grade.

Hollington head coach Mike Gevaux said: “This is a fantastic achievement for both gymnasts, who successfully negotiated the two regional qualifying rounds.

“To be selected for the SE region, they needed a top notch performance and to finish in either the gold or silver medal position. They fully deserve the opportunity to compete in such a fantastic arena in front of thousands of spectators.”
