Great Britain are European Champions

GBR battled it out with WG2 gaining a big lead on Rings.

The fantastic gymnasts from Putin’s dictatorship fought back, ending up with a slight lead after their last H Bar routine.

It came down to Harry Hepworth on Floor. He delivered with a huge difficulty set.

  1. Great Britain 246.728
  2. WG2 246.158
  3. Switzerland 242.094
  4. Italy 240.494
  5. Germany 240.160
  6. France 238.362
  7. Belgium 235.528
  8. Hungary 232.830

That was an excellent, exciting TEAM FINAL.

Kudos to 1st year senior Sol Scott who competed like a veteran. GBR wouldn’t have won without him. Will Sol be on their Worlds 2026 team?

The WG2 guys are young and fantastic. But weak on Rings. They brought specialist Ilia Zaika this time. No doubt they’ll consider bringing another Ring man to Worlds as their other apparatus are super strong.

Coaches should study Switzerland. Year after year they bring smart, safe, consistent routines.
