Thank you to Fortem

SGA would like to say a huge thank you to Fortem who have made a generous donation towards the Scarborough Teamgym squads new competition and display kit. The company donated travel polo shirts and display t shirts for all members of the team. The gymnasts will be competing in the international teamgym cup and performing at the Blume festival in Gran Canaria later this week.

Following a four hour flight the team have landed safely in Las Palmas. The sun is Shining and the excitement is building. Thank you to everyone who has made this trip possible ☀️🇬🇧🤸‍♀️

The excitement is building at SGA as it’s not long to go until we fly out to Gran Canaria. The competitive team were delighted to find out that Siksilk designer clothing would be donating bespoke jackets to the gymnasts competing in the International Teamgym cup.

Everybody at the club is really thankful for the support from Siksilk and love the kit they have donated.

Operations Manger, Wayne Aziz said “It’s fantastic to be part of kitting the academy out for their up and coming trip to Gran Canaria. “It’s been brilliant working with local sponsors and businesses within our town to get the Academy looking the part while travelling. Good luck to all”

Thanks you to everybody at Siksilk 😄

SGA would like to thank Rod Champion and James Eddon from AbbeyGas for their kind donation towards the clubs kit for the upcoming trip to Gran Canaria to compete in the International Teamgym Cup.

James said “It was an absolute pleasure to help a local club with the Gran Canaria trip. The dedication the staff and gymnasts have is second to none. Wishing the staff and team every success next week and every success in the future…… (ABBEYGAS WHITBY LTD)

The countdown for the trip is now on and we have some really excited gymnasts who have been working very hard in the run up to the comp. Good luck guys!

The Jackets were supplied and designed by Siksilk and look fantastic 😊
