Recreational Programs

Sydney Gymnastic and Aquatic Centre (SGAC) offers recreational programs for children and teens who are interested in gymnastics as a way to engage with their friends, overcome physical challenges and learn some new skills along the way.

Recreational Programs for All Skill Levels and Backgrounds

Recreational gymnastics programs can be taken up by children aged 5 years or over whether or not they have completed Kinder Gym. Our programs have been designed to cater for all stages of physical, social and cognitive development.

As children progress and are confident with these basic steps they are far more likely to adapt these gross motor skills and continue doing other physical activity throughout their lifetime.

All recreational level participants are ‘skills tested’ at the end of every school term and a progress card will be provided to parents to see their child’s progress.

Gym Sports Competition

Your child can have the competition experience in a recreational setting. All recreational gymnasts will have the opportunity to participate in a Gym Sports Competition at the end of school terms 2 & 4 (Change to twice a year because this year we had to make it term 1 and 3 due to the Gymnastics NSW Events calendar) where they have the opportunity to showcase their skills against other children of the club competing in their program level.

Uniform Policy

SGAC has a strict uniform policy that requires all athletes to be in club attire at every training session, excluding Teen Skills and Teen Tramp. Having a set uniform ensures that athletes are always wearing clothes which does not restrict movement, and are form-fitting to allow coaches to observe form and assist shape. It also provides a sense of uniformity amongst our gymnasts.

In addition, it is important that gymnasts take care not to wear anything which may catch on an apparatus or coach. In particular, piercings must be either removed or taped over before training. Gymnasts who have long hair must securely tie it back so as not to obscure vision.
