Overstone hid transactions into her own bank account as 'commission, A Star Leotards, Gala purchases and Volunteers Xmas.'
A treasurer who brought a gymnastics club to the brink of collapse by stealing more than £30,000 to fund her gambling habit has walked free from court.
Ovenstone, from Wormit in Fife, had originally been charged with embezzling over £40,000 from the club over a decade. The Crown accepted her guilty plea to embezzling £30,176.57 between 1 January 2017 and 11 February 2020. Fiscal depute Lynn Mannion told the court: "Pegasus Gymnastics Club is a non-profit charitable organisation which operates through grants and fundraising.
"She was solely responsible for the club's finances. From 1 January 2017 she began doing transactions to her own personal bank account. These were illegitimate and not related to any club invoice." Ms Mannion said: "Hall fees were not paid and that was discussed with the accused. The committee sent messages to the accused about £4,000 in unpaid let fees."
