We’re raising funds to support a talented group of young athletes from Flight Gymnastics Academy who have been proudly selected to represent Team Ireland at the Coimbra Gym Fest 2025 in Portugal this July!

These exceptional trampolinists and tumblers are all members of their respective Irish National Squad. Many are current Irish and Northern Irish champions, and several have already brought home international medals for Ireland. Their dedication, discipline, and passion for the sport is truly inspiring — they train up to five nights a week plus Saturdays, all while balancing school and other commitments.

What makes their achievements even more incredible is that their sport is completely self-funded. The average cost per gymnast to compete in Portugal is £1,500 — a significant amount for young athletes and their families to cover.

This JustGiving page has been set up to help ease that financial burden and ensure every selected gymnast can seize this amazing opportunity to represent their club and country on an international stage. It's not only a huge step for them as individuals, but also a proud moment for Flight Gymnastics Academy.

Every donation, no matter the size, makes a real difference. Please help us get these incredible young athletes to Portugal — and cheer them on as they continue to chase their dreams!

The selected gymnasts are:

Trampoline: Fionnuala Mulholland, Abbie Thompson, Fiadh Rogers, Oliwia Rzonca, and Zach Alderdice.

Tumbling: Erin Scott, Lily Rose Doherty and Stevie Oliver
