The City of Birmingham General Gymnastics Programme has been in operation for twenty-one years. The programme is now run at Birmingham GMAC.
Elite Level Gymnastics
-
The City of Birmingham Gymnastics Club is one of the oldest clubs in the country dating back to the early 1900's
General Gymnastics
General gymnastics caters for those wishing to do basic level gymnastics; this mainly entails floor and vault work and some basic level apparatus work. Whilst this level of involvement is about fun, fitness and fundamental body management there are opportunities to experience local and even regional level competition for those who wish to.
Performance Programme
The City of Birmingham Gymnastics Club has a competitive arm of its structure which is defined as the performance programme. Invitation onto the programme is through selection either after being ‘spotted’ from the General programme by a member of the coaching staff or after open selection trials where invitation will be given to those who show the right levels of potential in their flexibility strength and attitude. More extensive training opportunities with specialist coaches will be offered to selected gymnasts in order to prepare them for higher levels of competitive gymnastics.
