The Williams Lake Gymnastics Club’s junior and senior competitive teams flipped north last month to the Quesnel Gold Pan Invitational.
From the junior team Kylie Syme, Zadee Campbell, Brooke Syme, Hunter Casselton, Kalli Campbell, Nya Chutskoff and Elise Carson, plus senior team members Katie Chipman, Chloe Lutters, Michaela Newberry, Gabrielle Gracia, Thea Lutters and Hunter Jariett competed.
New WLGC head coach Nancy Saari said the junior team all brought home hardware.
“Personal bests were recorded by all,” Saari said.
On the senior side, everyone secured top-five finishes, along with raking in multiple silver and bronze medals.
It was also the team’s first competitive meet of the season.
“I think we did well for the first meet and we’re still adjusting to a new coach,” Newberry said, noting there were several strong competitors in attendance.
For the club’s next meet in Kamloops, Gracia, Chipman and Chloe will be moving up two levels in the Junior Olympic Program from level four to level six to compete.
In the meantime, team members said they’re busy polishing up their routines in multiple events for the competition.
