October 2023 Newsletter
British Gymnastics Membership
British Gymnastics membership expires at the end of September. Please make sure you have renewed your child’s membership or go to www.british-gymnastics.org before your child’s next class to renew their membership. This is essential for insurance and your child will not be able to participate in our classes without membership.
‘Vault into Christmas’ competition
We are very excited to be holding another competition at our club on 26th November. This is a floor and vault competition, so not for our 4-piece squad gymnasts, but all our recreational and 2-piece gymnasts can take part. Entries open on 7th October via LoveAdmin and close on 4th November. You can enter your gymnast into the competition via your LoveAdmin account. After logging in on the browser you will see it available to book as an option under the payments tab. If using the Love Admin app you will see it under ‘Courses’. You will need to select the gymnast to enter and then confirm their details. Payment will be taken automatically for all who have a direct debit/pre-authorisation set up. We will let you know what time your child needs to be there a few weeks before. Children do not need a club leotard but we have plenty in stock if you would like them to have one for the competition. We also have some club boys leotards in stock. All children taking part will receive a participation medal and we will have 1st, 2nd and 3rd medals for floor and vault for each group. The routines are suitable for all ages and levels from reception up to our squad levels. We hope as many of our gymnasts as possible will take part.

Tracksuits
The online shop for our new style tracksuits and club shorts will be open again from 9th to 22nd October. Once orders are placed, they will take approximately 7 weeks to arrive as they are made to order. When the shop goes live you will be able to purchase here.
Delivery is estimated to be by 15th December, so perfect for Christmas presents. For this reason, please check sizing carefully.
