Awards | Senior Gymnast of the Year trio loving life together
Karla Hillcoat, Emma Logan and Gemma Russell won the Scottish Gymnastics Senior Gymnast of the Year award in November. The trio from Dynamic Gymnastics Academy had been performing together for less than a year when they took home their trophies in 2025.
The award came among a number of accolades in their first 365 days together. They won the senior group gold at the British Acrobatic Championships and represented Great Britain at the European Championships.
Emma and Gemma were a very successful pair before forming their trio with Karla. They had won the Senior Gymnast award in 2024 too. The seamless transition to add Karla to the duo was made all the more easy by the girls’ pre-existing great relationship with one another. As Karla put it: “We’re the best of friends, so it’s really nice to get to go out and compete together.”
