Competitions at RGA
About
Our optional, friendly club competitions are designed to not only motivate and inspire our gymnasts but to prepare them for future friendly competitions internally within RGA and externally at school events.
Each year we hold three competitions for our recreational members in Year 3* and upwards, including GymTeam. (*This is the age they allowed to compete according to British Gymnastics policy and best practise.)
Our competitions each have a different core focus that will be covered in their weekly class with us.
We also offer optional Competition Preparation sessions, usually during the half term.
Find out more below including how to enter and the routines/ skills required.

Competition preparation sessions
We host optional preparation sessions for our competitions during the half term holiday.
Ideal for those who have never participated in a competition before, to help them prepare and compete with confidence.
We will also be covering the competition tumbles and routines in our usual classes, so these are for gymnasts who may never have competed before, or could do with extra support.
Only gymnasts that have signed up for the competition will be able to attend the preparation session.
