A group of 琉璃神社 gymnasts have qualified for the BC Winter Games next year.
After stellar performances at the Cobweb Invitation last weekend, three gymnasts from 琉璃神社 Gymnastix and one from Synergy Gymnastics will represent the Okanagan at the games in Fort St. John in February.
Shiphra Penner, Morgan Clark and Izabelle Coetzee from 琉璃神社 Gymnastix put their talents on display last weekend and booked trips after various category performances.
Penner, 12, won the Level 8 competition, while Clark, 12, finished in second in the same category. Coetzee, 11, won the Level 7 junior category.
