We’ve swapped our leotards for the 3 Lions in the gym this weekend and we’re ready to cheer the England football team on tonight!
From everyone at Leeds Gymnastics Club…
Come on England, BRING IT HOME!
Last week we said goodbye to one of our senior elite gymnasts, Ren Billingham. Ren has been a huge part of Leeds, joining us at 9 years old and retiring from gymnastics at 18.
Our 2015 ‘Female Gymnast of the Year’ and ‘Young Ambassador’ in 2017, Ren never failed to impress with her hard work and determination. She qualified for the British Championships and was selected for the 2017 England National Squad, winning her first competition representing England. We are so proud to have been part of her journey.
Ren is looking forward starting University in September, hoping to study Nursing. She has already booked onto her Level 1 coaching course and we’re looking forward to having her back in the gym in a different role.
Everyone at Leeds Gymnastics Club would like to wish Ren good luck in her next chapter 💙
