A HIGHBRIDGE girl has been selected to represent England in baton-twirling in the European Championships.

Abigail Cooper is one of 11 girls from the Bridgwaterbased Chameleon Batonettes who will now head to Almere in Holland in October after success at the nationals.

Corp director and choreographer, Rachel Boobyer, said the results were the culmination of months of hard work.

“The young members of the team have worked exceptionally hard this year to improve and perfect their routines."
