Wednesday 6 April 2022

Last term, Richmond upon Thames College students, Amani Egbor and Cameron Patrick Lothian, competed at the 2022 Acrobatic Gymnastics World Championships, which took place in Baku, Azerbajian.

Amani, who studies Biomedical Science Level 3, performed in the senior women's pair with fellow gymnast, Zoey Knok for team GB. The pair’s elegant interpretation of ‘La Boheme’ achieved 26.950 points, ensuring their place in the Balance final at Acro Worlds 2022.

Zoey and Amani received the second highest score in the morning qualification, putting them 2nd overall (silver) in the Womens Pair Balance Qualification.

Cameron, who studies Sport level 2, performed in the Men’s Junior World Championships alongside fellow gymnasts Jack Clegg, Ethan Law and Jake Turner, with the group coming 1st overall earning themselves a Gold medal each.

Cameron was very happy with his performance at Acro World 2022, saying “I am pleased with how myself and my teammates performed, we worked hard and deserved 1st place.

“I really enjoy competing generally, but I found this Championship to be one of the best for me. I’m just happy to have my Gold medal and I'm looking forward to the next Championship.”
