So very proud of this extremely promising gymnast. Well done all!
March -After winning the Newport County Kids Cup Tournament our team travelled to represent County in The EFL Kids Cup in Swindon. A massive achievement to once again represent the club and for the 3rd consecutive year after visits to Portsmouth (2016) and Wycombe Wanderers(2017). We faced tough competition as we imagined playing the likes of Wycombe Wanderers, Colchester, Yoevil Town, and bagged a few wins along theway. It wasn't enough to get us to the final but it was another great experience for all the players. Well done Dylan, Cole, Wayne, Kobi, Harri, Jacob and Carl. Thanks also to Mike and Liam from Newport County for making our day so special. Special thanks to our merry band of parent supporters who travelled with us. It is always great to have your support and we thoroughly enjoy you joining us!
