Our GymLeague program sets us apart from the rest due to our unique training structure which does not show a gender bias. All GymLeague athletes will train and consolidate skills on all gymnastics apparatus and equipment to allow them to develop in every facet of the sport and reach their full potential through training in a mix gendered class.
What they do - FCGCs GymLeague Program is designed to extend gymnasts ability through technically proficient skills and routines. Our program will focus on the development of the child not only as a gymnast but also as a holistic person. Gymnasts in the GymLeague program are required to train a minimum number of hours a week to ensure that they are dedicating enough time to developing physically and mentally to excel within the program. We will utilise the Australian Levels Program (ALP), in addition to other competition opportunities, such as Australian Gymnastics Competition Leagues (AGC Leagues).
Please note - GymLeague gymnasts will have compulsory events throughout the year including competitions.
