COMPETITIVE SQUADS
This is the first step onto the competitive ladder and involves the gymnasts committing to multiple training sessions per week.
A lot of time is spent on improving gymnasts strength, flexibility and co-ordination which will safely allow them to develop the higher level skills for County, Regional and National competitions. Gymnasts will train from 2 - 15 hours per week with the chance to represent the County, Region and Nation.
