1 2017 Gym Sport and Competition information In 2017 we will be offering 4 Gym Sports which gymnasts may choose to compete and train in. Gymnasts will be selected for each Gym Sport and which they will be training in. Gymnasts may choose up to 2 gym sports to compete in throughout the year. This year we are competing in WAG, Tumbling, MAG and we are re introducing to CWG this year Sports Acro. We recommend that gymnasts only compete 2 gym sports as the cost of uniforms, entry fees and travel will add up as well as we feel that concentrating on 1 or 2 gym sports will be beneficial to the gymnast. Term fees are separate for each gym sport. Gymnasts must also pay club membership of $100 which includes Gym NSW registration and insurance. WAG women s artistic gymnastics ALP (Australian levels program) also known as National levels (NL) and levels 3 6 foundation levels. ALP SQUAD - Gymnasts selected in this must commit to the designated training days and will be selected to compete at club, invitational, regional, State and Country Championship. A high level of attendance is expected as well as competing at majority of the competitions offered. Gymnasts must also reach all skill requirements in the level they are competing in. For example a gymnasts may be training in the level 5 6 but as of the first competition of the year has not yet achieved all the skills to compete level 5 so they will compete level 4 until they reach the level 5 requirements. This gymnasts will still stay training with the level 5 6. The training days and fees for each ALP are: Level 3 ALP - Wednesday , Friday and Saturday Term 1 fee - $330 Level 4 ALP - - Monday , Wednesday , Friday and Saturday Term 1 fee - $365 Level 5 6 ALP - Monday , Tuesday 7.00am 8.30am (every second week, weeks 1, 3,5,7,9 term 1), Wednesday , Friday and Saturday Term 1 fee - $385 Foundation level The foundation is for gymnasts who cannot commit to the hours or all the competitions required for the ALP levels or for gymnasts working in between levels. Foundation levels is also for gymnasts who may not want to compete WAG anymore but would like to still keep training. Gymnasts may choose to train 1, 2 or 3 days a week in the foundation levels. These gymnasts will only compete in club and regional competitions and may be selected for Country Championships (if selected they will compete the ALP level in which they have reached all the skill requirements). The Foundation levels competitions and training is more relaxed and not as competitive as the ALP levels. The training days and fees for the foundation are: Wednesdays , Fridays , intermediate tumbling Monday or advanced Saturday (coach to select tumbling class for each gymnasts). Term 1 fee - 1 day a week $260, 2 days per week $270, 3 days a week $310

The top 6 gymnasts from the trials will be selected to represent NSW at the L6 border challenge. Last year the border challenge was in Queensland this year s venue and State are yet to be confirmed.
