Laoishe MacCana, 16, and Saoirse, 13, shone at the Forest of Dean Gymnastics Centre in Coleford.

The girls were selected for October’s Bill Slater National Club Team Championships.T
heir proud mother Lesley said: “They are fortunate to attend excellent local schools, which support them in their efforts to reach their potential and achieve their goals.”
