 Continuing
his fantastic achievements throughout 2007 (Silver medal on
Pommels at the European Championships in May and a World Final
in September), severnteen year old Daniel Keatings, from Huntingdon
Olympic Gym Club grabbed the Men’s Senior Overall title
in Wigan for the first time in his career. The Silver medal
went to Luke Folwell, also from Huntingdon and the Bronze,
to Ross Brewer from Sutton.
Daniel said:
“It’s absolutely great I’m really pleased
with that result. There were definitely some nervous moments
but I brought it back. After the Worlds in Stuttgart I took
a couple of weeks off but then I've been in the gym working
as hard as ever as I treat this competition as being one of
the biggest.
Hopefully I will have day off on Monday but then it’ll
be pommels, pommels, pommels in the run up to the Glasgow
Grand Prix.”
The Under 18 All-around title went to Kristain Thomas of Earls
who was a member of the GBR World Championships Team. Southport’s
Daniel Purvis finished in Silver medal position with Theo
Seager (City of Leeds) taking the All-around Bronze.
The Under 16’s Championship went to Reece Pearson (Notts
School of Gymnastics) with Reiss Beckford (South Essex) and
Cameron Mackenzie (Huntingdon) in second and third spots.
And in the final competition of the day, the Under 14's,
the title went to Sam Oldham. Two gymnasts from South Essex
GC, Max Whitlock and Joseph Ben-Aderet, followed in Silver
and Bronze places.
