AMANDA Parker is on top of the world after winning gold in the synchro trampolining category at a top international competition. The 27-year-old, from Harmans Water, and team-mate Kat Driscoll took the title at the World Games in Colombia on Wednesday.
On Twitter, she paid tribute to her coaches, including Sue Lawton, who is based at Bracknell Trampoline Centre at Brakenhale School, where Parker trains.
She added:"OH MY GOD!!!! Can't believe it! We won GOLD. Thanks for everyone's support!
"Mega thanks go to our National Coach @tracywhittaker1 & our personal coaches Sue Lawton & @gaz_short81 for helping us bring home the gold!"
