TWO youngsters proved they were a cup above the rest after being selected to represent Great Britain in an unusual sport.

Katie Binder, and Samantha Izod, both 11, and pupils at Heycroft Primary School, Eastwood, travelled to America to take part in the world stacking championships.

Tim Goddard, a teacher at Heycroft said: "The girls had a fantastic time and Samantha came ninth in her age group's competition."
