JumpSTART
JumpSTART acts as the bridge between our GymSTART and the National Series events programmes, whereby club recreational level gymnasts can try one, some and/or all of the disciplines as an individual gymnast, as part of a discipline team and part of an overall club team. JumpSTART also provides a key pathway into the National Series discipline specific events & promote the growth/development in our various gymnastics disciplines.
The first
JumpSTART competition event took place in May 2023 hosted along side the
National Series. It provides our club level recreational gymnasts with more
events opportunities to take part and compete in addition to our other event
programmes targeted at club recreational level such as GymSTART & the
Floor.
“This event will serve
as the missing link in the journey from the joy of a gymnast’s first gymnastics
class to the thrill and excitement of competition in whatever discipline they
chose. It will give gymnasts the chance to show off, in a fun atmosphere, what
they have been working on at their weekly classes.''
