Senior gymnast Gemma Hosey set the standards north of border as Southampton's Rhythmic South Gym Club team, pictured left, came away with a host of medals from the Scottish Open Invididual Apparatus Championships.
Competing against girls from as far afield as Northern Ireland, Otley, Stockport and Scotland, Hosey scooped double gold in the hoop and ribbon disciplines.
Rhythmic South's other golden girl was Laura Bridgewater in the junior rope competition, while Olivia Pierce took silver and bronze in the junior clubs and hoops. Nuala Page pocketed bronze in the junior ball.
In the under-10 section, Freya Tee took silver with the hoop and there were two bronze medals for Cathy Chen in the free and hoop competitions.
Rhythmic South will extend a warm welcome to any girls, aged five upwards, who would like to have a go at rhythmic gymnastics.
