Brooke wins Gold at Trophy d’Ecosse synchronized skating competition

In September 2022, we welcomed a new Year 10 student to Giles Academy whom we discovered had an amazing talent as one of the best young synchronized skaters in the UK.

Brooke Hudson is now in Year 11 and her winning feats just continue as last weekend she won yet another Gold medal with her team in the prestigious Trophy d’Ecosse competition in Dumfries, Scotland.

This international competition for junior and senior skaters is organised by British Ice Skating and one of the top five competitions for synchronized skating. In the Mixed Age category, she was competing against six other teams from Great Britain and New Zealand.

She is a key part of the ‘Ice Unite’ team at the Nottingham Synchronized Skating Academy where she has been at the club for the last nine years and they are the reigning British Champions.

Congratulations to Brooke as her dedication, hard work and commitment to this demanding sport is a shining example of our school motto – Aspire, Challenge, Achieve.
