Zodiac Display TeamThe Display team was formed in 1995 when the school we were training in asked us to perform in their school fete. At the same time one of the gymnasts mum, had connections with Caterham Carnival and asked us to perform there. The Team was originally made up of the squad gymnasts. Each year our performance has a DIFFERENT THEME AND WITH DIFFERENT COSTUMES, with some of our 2002 display having their pictures in the BRITISH GYMNASTICS LEAFLET. In 1996 we took part in London Festival of gymnastics for the first time , which was held at Crystal Palace, from there it moved to Wembley for the 1999 festival from there to Essex , and in 2004 it moved to Brentwood and is there for 2005 . The Display Team grew in numbers and a seperate time and day was made for the Display Team to train. As the rest of the club grew other gymnasts wanted to take part in the display team, so in 2000 the Display team became a separate section of the Club, to which the recreational and squads could join. From the set up in October 2002 the routines and themes were made by Head Coach, Carolle Kay, but from 2002, Coach Rachel has taken over and given the whole display team a new modern look.
