Irish dancing champion is too young to audition for Riverdance despite 'ticking all the boxes'

Rosie Rendall from Yate has won the World Championships for her Irish Dancing twice - once virtually last year and another in Germany just weeks ago.

Having been dancing since she was seven-years-old, the now-13 year-old was recently recognised for her achievements by her school, Yate Academy, who put on an assembly showering her with praise and inviting her to a town mayor's event to perform a piece in front of local residents as well as the council. Her school even added her to a 'wall of fame', but Rosie now dreams of making it as a famous Riverdance performer.

Unfortunately for Rosie, who attends Stuart Irish Dance in Fishponds, she's currently three years too young to audition for the world-famous Irish dance show, despite her "ticking all the boxes" according to her dad, who called it "a shame" as "she's ready now".
