Wexford Gymnasts representing Ireland

We would like to introduce you to 7 amazing gymnasts from wexford gymnastics club. It has always been their dream to represent Ireland at international level and in May they will get this wonderful opportunity. These 7 gymnasts will represent Ireland in 3 partnerships, the first is a 12-18 pair Aoife White and Faye O’Callaghan, the second is a trio Becky Duggan, Alice Molloy-Nolan & Ella Scanlon and finally there is a Senior Pair Kirstin Brennan & Lily Stewart. The competition is called the Burgas International Acro Cup in Bulgaria.

These 7 gymnasts put in hours and hours of training each week to be able to be up to a standard that they would be selected to represent their country. Over the last 2 years they have not been able to train as they would have liked or compete at any competitions so to be able to be back in the gym doing what they love to do means the world to them.

As I'm sure you know trips like this are very expensive and all the cost has to be paid for by the parents. We have decided to try and fund raise as much as we can for their trip. Not only will the trip cost alot of money but we would also love to be able to purchase new/second hand leotards for the girls so that they can go out onto the competition floor with all the confidence we can give them. These don’t come cheap either.

We are asking for any donations you can give so that these 7 gymnasts can go over to Bulgaria in May and be the best that they can be.
