TEAM Guernsey is continuing to impress at the Dance World Cup, which is taking place in Jersey.

The competition ends today and the island’s team leaders said the week had been a success.

Yesterday, Jersey was leading the medal table, but as results continued to pour in, Portugal was looking likely to overtake them.

Guernsey followed closely behind its fellow Channel Island, with just one fewer silver medal.

Team Guernsey leader Catherine Webster said the dancers were continuing to give their best efforts.

‘Wednesday was the best day for us as we had the most entries,’ she said.

‘We always knew that the ballet classes were going to be the toughest because the other countries, such as Italy, have dancers who are training to be professionals,’ she said.

‘It has been a really successful couple of days and the dancers have been ecstatic.  It’s been a real privilege for them to be here to see the other countries perform.’
