IOW skaters took part in an inter-club artistic competition at Bracknell on 14 May. Competing against clubs from the south of England, the IOW team finished in fourth place, which was a fantastic result considering the size of the other clubs.

Phoena Wilmott Bayer was second and Sarah Danzig fourth in the group for skaters of level one and under. Isabelle Coeshott and Archie Bicknell finished fourth and fifth respectively in the event for levels two and three.

Gemma Marsh was our second skater to finish on the podium, coming third in the competition for levels four and five. In the groups event, Emma Wilks, Joanna Tung and Sarah England finished fifth.
