Hart took third place on the vault while Bailey placed third on the high bar in the level two division.
Indy Weaver was awarded sixth on floor in level three.
The club’s level three team finished in fourth position, narrowly missing out on bronze.
All of the competing club member gymnasts achieved personal bests for their performances. Coach Lynette Morrow said she was incredibly proud of the gymnasts’ efforts.
“Our boys train four hours a week and were competing against boys who train for 12 hours a week,” she said.
“The level two competitors were consistent all day, performing very strongly at one of their best ever competitions. It’s a great encouragement across the board that kids don’t necessarily need to train those hours. If you’re consistent at training anything could happen.”
