Coleraine skater Jenna McCorkell took her first major senior international medal this season in Dortmund Germany in the NRW Trophy.

McCorkell had been threatening to take a medal for some time this year, however with an overall personal best score this season it looks as though her fortunes have changed.

The NRW Trophy saw most of Europe's top competitors involved and naturally her coach Yuri Bureiko was delighted with the seven times British Senior Champion performance.

Jenna will now work with Shanette Folle before she competes in the European, Olympic and World Championships in the New Year.

There was double joy for Jenna as husband Kevin Van der Perren clinched the bronze in the men's event earlier in the day.
