Bronze medal for young Estepona figure skater

By Eloise Horsfield

SHE’S been working her socks off on the rink for three years – and now a young Estepona ice skater has scooped a bronze medal at Blackpool Ice Festival.

Bobbie Holgate-Pope, 11, who was born in Malaga, wowed judges with her fantastic solo figure skating performance to Led Zeppelin’s song Kashmir.

“I was nervous at first but when I went on it was OK,” said Bobbie, who trains three times a week at Gibraltar’s Ice Skating Academy.

“When I got my prize, everybody was cheering and it was exciting.”
