Success for Eva!

 

We were delighted to hear about Eva’s success . Eva was competing in a competition in Liverpool. It was called ‘The City of Liverpool Gymnastics Open’. Eva came second overall in the highest group for her age, voluntary level 5.

Eva has also competed in other competitions including Gymnastics Ireland in May which she won. She has since been invited to train with the development squad for Gymnastics Ireland.
