Happy new year! 

Reminder – classes start back on 3rd January. We don’t have any planned cancellations so please let us know if your child can’t make a class. 

Club Membership 

2024 club membership is due by the end of January.  This is an annual fee paid to the club and is separate to British Gymnastics membership. It is £15 per family for recreational members and £20 per family for full membership (squad gymnasts). If you have a direct debit set up through LoveAdmin, you do not need to do anything. We will send payment requests on 26th January.  Please ask if you have any questions.  

LoveAdmin Details 

Please log into your LoveAdmin account and make sure your child’s details are up to date. It is especially important to make sure that your emergency contact details and your child’s medical information is correct and up-to-date.  

Coaching 

5 of our junior coaches who have completed their level 1 coaching course in December and just have their exam to go. We also had 2 young leaders complete their helpers course in December. We held a training session on 29th December for our young leaders and young coaches to go through progressions and safe supporting skills as well as safeguarding and building rapport with gymnasts and parents. If you are interested in trying coaching, judging or volunteering at events this year, please let us know.
