Having joined Andover Tumbling Club only two years ago, Yeates is over the moon to have qualified for such a major competition.
However her family need to raise £2,500 to fund the trip and have set up a crowdfunding page to try to reach the target, with time somewhat against them.
People have kindly donated nearly £1,000 already but she is running out of time to raise the remainder, so any help, however small, would be appreciated.

“She deserves all the success – she’s worked extremely hard juggling school and training.”
