Daina chosen for World Games

The Helenswood School student will be hoping to repeat her success of last year when she won silver in the 11-12 age group in St Petersburg, Russia.

This time, though, Gillingham Jumpers member Daina, of The Ridge, will be at the lower end of the 13-14 age group in Metz, France, from November 13-20.

She will compete as an individual and in synchro with Sheffield-based partner Georgie Haycock, alongside whom she won gold in the under-15 age group at the 2010 British Trampoline, Tumbling and DMT Championships during July.

What's more, Daina has been chosen to represent the England junior (under-17) squad in Loule, Portugal, next month and in the Home Nations competition at a venue to be confirmed during October after a successful trial in Kingston.
