HARTFORD School of Gymnastics is home to newly-crowned county champions.
Hannah Blain and Millie Harding finished first overall in class during the Cheshire and Merseyside Four Piece Championships at Liverpool.
The former, in the novice 14 and above category, scored highest on bars and finished second on vault.
Third spot in beam left her top of the standings on aggregate.
Millie’s floor routine was best in the pre-novice 13 competition, while she scored second-highest on both bars and beam too.
Ewa Krzyzanowska, also in the novice 14 and above class, claimed individual gold on floor – and second on bars and beam – to take silver overall.
Ella Day matched that feat, finishing as runner-up overall in the pre-novice 12 group.
Rhea Carless (pre-novice 10), Ella Smith (pre-novice 12) and Kerry Gillies (novice 12) were rewarded with a bronze gong for their all-round performance.
Rhea was second on bars as well, while Ella ranked third in her category on bars, beam and floor.
Kerry’s score on floor was second highest, while she was third on bars.
Debutant Ella Gaskill topped the standings on bars in the pre-novice 10 class, with fellow first-timer Rea Gaskill third on vault.
They were joined at Park Road Sports Centre by Hartford teammates Bethany Egerton, Hermione Mason and Jessica Laundy, who each posted personal-best totals.
