MALVERN gymnast Bryony Raine took first place in the West Midlands Levels Championships at Solihull Sports Centre.

All of the Malvern Hills Gymnastic Club gymnasts had to work routines on vault, bars, beam, and floor and were judged by some of the top judges in the country.

Bryony took first spot and her individual piece results were first on bars, first on beam, second on floor and fifth on vault. Head MHGC coach Brian Barson said: "This is a great achievement for her, all her hard work has paid off."

Sylvia Moeskops came seventh, in her age group, Jasmine Page came 11th and Hayley Smith came 13th.

Kate Knowles, Toni Dyson and Emily Coleman all took part in level four.
