Hampshire Under 8's Conditioning League

This week is the first of five rounds of competition for the youngest members of the squad. They will travel to Havant five times between March & July to compete as a team against other Hampshire clubs. All the other clubs are well established, Aspire is almost 2 years old, and the gymnasts train longer hours than we can manage.  Last year the team won the trophy for the "Most Improved Team" which was fantastic as Aspire gymnasts were easily the youngest. Our advantage is that many of last year's team  are still young enough to compete again this year.  Do follow their progress as their results will be posted here. Best wishes to to this week's team Molly Garner, Sophie Read, Mia Cain, Rebecca Bland, Amy Beresford. Do your best girls and enjoy the competition.

DO YOU SHOP ONLINE? - Easyfundraising

Since September we have been encouraging parents who shop online to support the club through easyfundraising. We have just received our first cheque £44.93. Thank you to our supporters. To join us all you need to do is visit www.easyfundraising.org.uk  Select "Aspire Gymnastics at Frogmore" as your good cause, install the Find and Remind tool which will alert you when you are browsing the web if a store you are visiting is a easyfundraising partner. It doesn't cost you anything but stores pledge to give the good causes a % of the price. Four times a year the club will receive a cheque! It's that easy. Please sign up to help us.

Bouncy Castle  Thank you to everyone who came to our fundraising event and brought friends to enjoy the fun. Thank you to the coaches and parents who helped keep everyone safe so it could be a great success. The club raised £166.00. Together with the £75.00 from the Christmas raffle, this was put towards the cost of a mat to use over the beam, to make it softer and more comfortable for gymnasts learning forward and backward rolls on the beam. Do look at the photos to see everyone having so much fun.
