The sponsored tumble took place over the whole of the week beginning Monday 6th December 2010. Everyone who attends Bevendean Gymnastics Club was involved, from pre-schoolers to coaches! The pre-school class managed to bounce their way for an amazing 30minutes with some children reaching 200 jumps!
The recreational children were a force to be reckoned with! The younger gymnasts performed a sponsored star jump and the older gymnasts, a sponsored forward roll. These gymnasts had 30mins also and as you can imagine were a lttle bit dizzy with some children reaching over 200 forward rolls!
The mini-competitive, competitive gymnasts and coaches all took part in a sponsored cartwheel. Again everyone who took part was amazing, we had some gymnasts reaching over 300 cartwheels and we had alot of people who were struggling to walk the next day!!! So far we have raised a fantastic £300 from this event and lots more money is still to be handed in. If you have not handed your sponsor money in yet, please hand this in to one of the coaches on the first week back to gym.
Also a big thank you to Lana Stoner, whilst Lana was injured at the time of the event she ensured that she was present at every session to help count the gymnast's tumbles.
