Who Can Try Out?

Anyone can try out for a competitive team but we would usually be looking for children who have trained and competed at a competitive level previously and need to change club or children aged 4 - 7 years old.

 

For younger children aged 4 - 7 years it doesn’t matter if you have done any gymnastics before we are looking for raw talent any child aged 4+ can try out .

​

What are We looking for?

We are looking for physical potential, strength, power, flexibility, coordination.  Equally important is the gymnasts ability to focus, listen to instructions, work with the team and perform in a competitive environment.

​

We will assess all the children using these areas of assessment:

Gymnastics Skills

Strength & Power
Core Strength & Endurance Speed & Rebound
Natural ability
Balance, Posture & Shape

Flexibility
Mental attitude

Focus

Ability to work as part of a team
 

If you are offered a place after your trial you will be given one week to accept or decline the place. If you decline the place you will have to be reassessed if you would like to try out at a later date. If selected children will complete a 3 month trial period, then be retested to confirm if this is the correct group. If they stay after this, they will be required to purchase a tracksuit and some additional clothing and training aids. All competitive children will start with 2+ sessions a week depending on the group offered and this will increase as they get older and move up through the competitive structure.
