Four superstar trampolinists from Stevenage have been named in Britain's squad for the World Championships later this year.
Omo Aikeremoikha, Marshall Frost, Lewis Gosling and Ruth Shevelan - all based at Marriotts Gymnastics Club - will be competing in the FIG Trampoline, DMT (Double Mini Trampoline) and Tumbling World Championships.
They make up the 24-strong British team that will be at the event, held at Birmingham's Utilita Arena from November 9 to November 19. More than 1,000 athletes from more than 40 countries will be battling it out during the competition.
It will be Ruth's fourth world championships in the women's DMT team, while Omo, Marshall and Lewis are all returning to the big stage too.
They make up three quarters of the men's senior DMT team, with Daniel Berridge - the 2023 British champion - completing the line-up.
Sarah Powell, CEO of British Gymnastics, said: “We are thrilled to be sending an experienced, supportive and talented team to the FIG World Championships this year.
"These gymnasts embody the spirit of the British Gymnastics vision, and we hope each athlete enjoys the experience of representing their country doing a sport they love.
"Good luck to everyone heading to Birmingham in November – from gymnasts to coaches, support staff and families – we are all right behind you!”
