Pegasus gymnast Euan Cox has earned his first international call-up.

Cox, pictured, will represent Great Britain at the Rheintal Cup in Switzerland next month after winning the under-12 category at the English Championships in Crayford last weekend.

The Ashford youngster won parallel bars and high bar and finished third on pommel to take the overall title and £100 prize money.

Pegasus head of kindergym Jennie Trandaburu said: "Euan was over the moon to be picked for Great Britain. His strongest apparatus is the high bar but he’s a real all-rounder."
