			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The closing date for entries of 12th May is fast approaching for this Novice competition, now in its second year. <strong>Competition date is Sunday 10th June. </strong> Last year was an outstanding success with over 100 gymnasts from 4 clubs taking part.  There is a lot of interest being shown from other clubs again this year.  Those who have been before will be amazed to find that our facility has doubled in size since last year. We now have full size competition and  warm-up floors plus a full length tumble track.  We are looking forward to welcoming the competitors and their parents. Expected registration time will be 11.15-11.30am. Finish time will be mid afternoon; assuming we have enough judges.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nick Heffer-Rahn, husband of club manager Jean, has been a tireless volunteer for the charity over the years. Nick has spent the last couple of weeks constructing a fantastic 10 metre run-up to our new tumble track. This is to allow our higher level tumblers  achieve the maximum speed and height during their spectacular runs. Joint Club manager Felicity said:&#8221;We are so grateful to Nick, he has saved us £ thousands on this project. This means we are now one of the very few clubs in the country to have a permanent full-length run-up&#8221; .   Nick was too shy to pose for a photograph so we asked his grandaughter Sofia &#8211; just starting out in her tumbling career- to stand in for him.</p>
