Great Yarmouth’s Retroskate Artistic Roller Skating Club entered a record number of skaters in the annual FARS British Figure and Free Championships and came home with 31 podium places.
Some 25 skaters of all ages competed in Kettering with Darcey Duffield, aged eight, taking on the role of flag bearer at the first ever opening ceremony.
The haul comprised 15 gold, 11 silver and five bronze medals.
Skaters finishing in the top five were invited to train for a place in the Great British Squad.
