Wiltshire School of Gymnastics hits gold!

The Bowerhill centre of the Wiltshire School of Gymnastics will be an official training facility for the games.

They've had to undergo numerous inspections to determine whether the school can offer the appropriate level of facilities for international gymnasts. The club now goes into a brochure for competing countries to consider when arranging their training schedules - west Wiltshire is likely to host either one large national team or two smaller ones.

The South West Regional Development Agency has appointed Guy Lavender to the post of regional director for the 2012 games, with the remit of making the most of south-west England's contribution by building cultural links, boosting tourism, encouraging new investment in sport and looking for potential sites for pre-games training camps.
