GYMNAST Rebecca Curtis-Harris collected no fewer than five gold medals at the recent southern region women's artistic championships held in Basingstoke.

The 10-year-old from Basingstoke was the overall level three champion and also won the individual events on the beam, bar, floor and vault to end a great day.

The Kempshott Junior School pupil now qualifies for the British Age Group Championships, which take place at the Guildford Spectrum on Saturday.

A former member of Basingstoke Gymnastic Club, she has trained at the Pinewood Olympic Gym, near Crowthorne for the last nine months and also received extra training with the national junior squad at Lilleshall.

It is the second year running Curtis-Harris has taken five medals at the southern region championships, following last year's triumphs at level four.

Earlier this year, she found level three success at the Berkshire Championships and the National Compulsory Championships in Birmingham.
