Hartlepool Graded competition

Grades 3-8.               Brierton Sports centre               June 11th

Text Box: The day started by an early wake-up call from Julie (me and Kristy had slept at her house). Julie took Kristy, Lolly and Katie in her car and me and Shannon were with Colin.        The journey wasn’t too long but me and Shannon kept ourselves amused by making up crazy little dances to the songs on Colin’s CD.        At about 9:15am we arrived at Brierton Sports centre. Shannon and Laurie were the first from the club to compete. Laurie came 12th and Shannon came 5th, unfortunately not qualifying. Me, Sammie-Jo and Dani were the next to compete. I came 8th—yay lol! Sammie came 13th and Dani came 2nd, qualifying to grade 3. Unfortunately I missed grade 3 by 0.9! :(        After me, Sammie and Dani were awarded our 1st place medals I spent the rest of the day relaxing with Shannon. We played games on Hunta’s laptop, did handstands and talked for a while.        During this time Henry competed and came 9th. Emily came 9th and Tamsin came 16th. Rachel was the next to compete, coming 5th. Unfortunately Max competed his set well but then forgot his vol and Daniel made a mistake in his vol and tried to keep going but ended up falling over and hurting his foot.   Text Box: Kristy and Lolly were next. Lolly came 2nd and Kristy came 4th. Heather and Lee were next. Heather came 1st but missed grade 2 by 0.4! Lee came 2nd and missed grade 2 by 0.1!!!!!!!!!! Hickey was the last to compete coming 1st!  Overall I think everyone had a really great day!!!!! VerteX did really well. We had 1 qualifier—Dani (who moved from grade 4 up to grade 3), 5 trophy winners—Heather, Lolly, Dani, Lee and Hickey and a 1st place team—Sammie-Jo, Jessi (me) and Dani.     Text Box: By Jessi Norris
