Some gymnasts do move into squads fairly rapidly others may never. This is solely down to the individual and their ability and potential. We do ensure all gymnasts have an opportunity to move to our squad system by running trials throughout the year.

A Voluntary Organisation is an organisation set up to carry some benefit for the wider community. Not-for-profit Voluntary organisations can make profits but the money must be ploughed back into the work of the group, not given to the members, the directors or anyone else as happens with for-profit groups. The organisation will involve some voluntary activity in its actual activities or in the management of the organisation. This does not mean that all the income of an organisation must come from voluntary contributions, or that everyone that works for it must be a volunteer. You may from time to time receive emails from WGC asking for volunteers or helpers, if you can help please put your name forward. Sport relies on millions of volunteer officials, coaches, administrators and managers, and without these committed volunteers, sport wouldn’t happen and sport clubs could not function. People volunteer at all ages, with many different skills and from every sector of society, so if you’ve got some time to spare and have an interest in gymnastics please let us know.

We keep in contact with parents generally via email, if you are not recieving emails from us please let us know. Infomation regarding events and general information will also be posted on the notice boards around both gyms.

If you have a concern that you would like to discuss, you can speak to your child's coach or staff member. Alternatively you may feel more comfortable speaking to our Welfare Officer Jan Heaton. All details for our Welfare Officer can be found on our Welfare page by following the following link. WELFARE PAGE
