Praise for young gymnasts

-

Soroptimis­ts Internatio­nal Crieff presented three hard-working Strath gymnasts with awards.

Rowan Sibbald was presented with the Norma Scott-Angel Cup and Lucy Douglas and Beth Taylor were named runners-up.

Soroptimis­t Heather Robertson said:“Norma Scott-Angel was a Soroptimis­t president some years ago and sadly died in the year of her presidency. Her interest was in osteoporos­is so we started this cup to raise awareness of the disease and also to give to a young girl who is involved in a weight-bearing exercise, which is one way of preventing osteoporos­is later on in life.

“This is the first time we have been involved in the gymnastics club at Strathearn Community Campus.”

Heather praised Laura Munro of Live Active Leisure, who is based at the campus.

She said:“Laura gave us three candidates to choose from under the heading of endeavour.

“She gave us some informatio­n about each and we chose a first, second and third.

“They each received a certificat­e, a book token and informatio­n on osteoporos­is.”
