Are you ready to make this summer unforgettable? 🤩

If you have ever dreamed of breaking a world record, but thought you were too young…

We’ve got news for you! 

At GWR HQ we've been busy creating records just for people under 16 years of age, so you don't have to compete unfairly alongside the grown-ups.

These records are as fun as they are official. 😎
