King Edmund Acro Comp 2015

"Bad dreams in the night.
They told me I was going to lose the fight,
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights."

We do like the acro competition at King Edmund's club in Bristol. We seem to do well each time we attend! We like to put it down to the expert and well varied Judges on the panel. This time was no different :)

5 pairs from Hendon Acro were competing at the weekend, including 2 WPs, 2 MxP's and a MP. We travelled across to Bristol the night before with our WP's, and arrived in style, thanks to Cherry (Clara's mum) getting us an upgrade to First Class for next to nothing! In return, the sushi destined for her daughter was taxed. Heavily.

We awoke to arrive at the venue for 8:00am, and the WP's were the first to compete. Both pairs received an uncannily close score to one another - Clara & Tara 26.36 and Layla & Mercedes 26.39! They placed 7th and 8th respectively, out of a massive group of 20 pairs... well done!

In the afternoon, we were joined by our 2 MxP's and MP. The boys were first up, and produced a decent routine, falling just short of the medals in 4th place. The G4 MxP of Yunus and Sofia were up next, and with a brand new routine had to live up to some expectations! They did well achieving the BRONZE  medal! Well done both!

The LAST routine of the entire competition was performed by our G3 MxP of Mika & Natalie. Quite some pressure knowing you're the last to go, considering everyone is just about ready to go home! They performed a nearly faultless routine to achieve a score in the wuthering heights of 27.74, claiming another GOLD medal!! One of the top 3 scores of the entire comp! What a good end to the day.
