HOPE Acrobatic Gymnastics Club are celebrating success at the regional championships.

Many of the Newton club’s partnerships were crowned winners in the North West Championships in Wigan.

And the achievements followed on from success at the South Tyneside International Acro Cup at Sunderland's Stadium of Light complex two weeks previous.

Hope dominated in the international development plan (IDP) women's groups in Wigan.

At IDP1, Isobel Stirrup, Jessica Lancaster and Lois Preston produced two outstanding routines, thrilling the packed arena on their way to a convincing gold.

Daisy Kay, Ava Earley and Luna Tootle joined them on the podium with a well-deserved bronze in the same category.

At IDP2, Holly Williams, Darcey Cassidy and Poppy Duffy emulated their clubmates with equally dazzling performances in their two routines to give Hope their second trio of north west champions.

There was further success in the ultra-competitive grade-three women's group category.

The newly-formed trio of Emma Green, Eva Barron and Zlata Zaharia built on their debut silver medal in Sunderland to take their first regional title with a confident performance.

They were followed by the young grade one men's pair of Noah Graham and Max Harrison who also took gold for Hope.

In the top-level FIG categories, there was a successful return from injury for Ella Cooper with her partner Logan Mallord as they stormed to victory in the 12-18 mixed pairs, while Isla Cook, Lilly-Mae Crabtree and Libby Williams took silver in the 11-16 women's groups.

The medals kept coming for Hope.

Leara Fardella and Lydia Cassidy, stepping up to grade five, took a fantastic silver in the women's pair with Isobel Rummery, Caitlin Hanley and Amelia Harper also winning silver in the youth women's group.

Alice Pownall, Hannah Gannon and Olivia Semmens bounced back from just missing out on the medals in Sunderland a fortnight earlier to make the podium in second place in the grade four women's groups.

In the grade two categories, Lola Sitko, Rosie Kay and Evelyn Tetlow-Waites took silver in the women's group, with Lilly Madej and Priya Stott earning a hard-fought bronze in the women's pair.
