Monmouth Competitive and Recreational Gymnastics Club

We hope you have had a wonderful summer and are excited for our autumn to start.

This term we have lots of exciting things planned :-

For our Comp squad, they will be working on their partnership routines ready for their two friendly comps in October, along with the NDPs Welsh Championship in Feb,as well as creating a routine to display at Ebbw Vale in December.

Our Intermediate/Display squad will be working hard on creating a routine ready for the Ebbw vale display in December, as well as learning and improving their individual and partnership skills.

The Progression squad will be working on their individual moves, and some partner work, as well as the second half of term working towards their badges.

What a wonderful year we had under new coaches last year.

We've had an incredibly busy and exciting season. We introduced brand-new routines, showcased our own club display, performed at the Cardiff Centre, and took part in the Monmouth Carnival. We also organised three separate fundraising campaigns to help us purchase new equipment.

And now for the best news - our grant application was accepted. This means our new equipment will be arriving within the next few months, giving every Gymnast the chance to develop their skills even further.

We're thrilled to share that helper Danielle has officially qualified as our newest coach.

Over the summer, she completed her course and assessment, earning the title of Assistant Foundation Coach.

Congratulations, Coach Danielle - we're so proud of you!

Children are to arrive by the main entrance and will be welcomed into the gym by our safeguarding officer. Parents are asked to wait outside the gym as we have very limited space. There is a cafe at the leisure centre serving snacks and drinks. Josie is always present to answer any questions or queries.

• Competition squad- £209.00

• Intermediate Squad £66.00

• Progression Squad £66.00

Please make sure you have insurance for your Gymnast, either through Welsh Gymnastics or British Gymnastics

This is compulsory and essential for your Gymnast to be part of any Gymnastics club.

Thank you

For safety reasons our Gymnasts must wear a leotard or if they have just started and do not have one please wear suitable shorts and t-shirt

Shorts are optional when wearing a leotard

Please avoid wearing skirts as these can create injury with the Gymnasts getting tangled in them when trying to perform their skills

Socks can be worn to class along with something warm and comfy but once warmed up they will be asked to remove them as they are a slipping hazard

Long hair must be tied up tightly and no jewellery to be worn

This is again for safety and preventing injury to all Gymnasts and coaches.

Thank you.
