R.hythmic Gymnastics RePort To arrive at school in the first week of the year and find that the Inter-school Gymnastics Competition was to be held on June l3th instead of sometime in November. was quite a shock. All plans lor long and intensive training and perfectly rehearsed routines had to be forsaken, but we soon recovered and got down to the business of choosing teams - a mam- moth job in itseli with 52 girls trialing lor l8 places - chosing music, making up and teaching routines and perhaps, most dillicult scheduling rehearsal times. As the day of the competition drew nearer the girls' enthusiasm was evident as they gave up weekends and after- noons to train, so as to achieve the precise timing so necessary lbr group routines. Despite last minute problems with broken ribbon sticks and warped hoops, all teams performed remarkably well. The ball team must be especially commended for surprising us all with their excellent performance. Thanks must go to Tracy Foster and Yvette Carlyon, two "old" girls who gave up their time to coach, Miss Williamson and Jenni Clarke for their support, and the girls lor their interest and enthusiasm. l.
