Chloe & Kailen Represent Great Britain at the Junior World Championships

We’re incredibly proud to see Chloe Green and Kailen Hardy-Heavens representing Great Britain this week at the 2026 Acrobatic Gymnastics Junior World Championships in Pesaro, Italy. 🇬🇧

Chloe & Kailen have been selected as one of Great Britain’s Junior Mixed Pairs for the Championships, which take place at the Vitrifrigo Arena from 17 to 20 September.

The pair have been working together for over a year, training across Evoke Gymnastics and Southampton Gymnastics, and their selection for Great Britain is a fantastic achievement for both gymnasts and everyone involved in supporting their partnership.

A big year for Chloe & Kailen

It has already been a fantastic year for the pair, with strong performances at both national and international competitions.

Chloe & Kailen have competed and medalled at events in the UK and abroad, gaining valuable experience as they have continued to develop together throughout the season.

Now they have the opportunity to take that experience onto the biggest stage of their junior careers so far, representing Great Britain at the Junior World Championships.

Competition in Pesaro

Junior Mixed Pair qualification is split across two routines.

Chloe & Kailen are scheduled to compete their Balance routine on Thursday 17 September at 15:04 local time (14:04 UK), followed by their Dynamic routine on Saturday 19 September at 16:37 local time (15:37 UK).

Following the two qualification routines, the top eight Mixed Pairs will progress to the Junior World Championship final on Sunday 20 September, where they will compete a Combined routine.

Representing Great Britain

Being selected to represent Great Britain at a Junior World Championships is a huge milestone, and we are incredibly proud of what Chloe & Kailen have achieved together.

Their partnership is also a great example of clubs working together to create opportunities for gymnasts, with Evoke Gymnastics and Southampton Gymnastics supporting Chloe & Kailen throughout their development as a Mixed Pair.

We’d like to wish them both the very best of luck for their routines this week. Most importantly, we hope they enjoy the experience of competing for Great Britain on the world stage.

We’ll be sharing updates and results throughout the Championships, so keep an eye on our social media to follow Chloe & Kailen in Pesaro. 🇬🇧❤️

Good luck Chloe & Kailen! Good luck Team GB!
