Please ensure you click on the class link according to the year your daughter was born, otherwise you may miss the chance to register as spaces are limited. Once you book, we cannot change the class time as other classes are full at this time. If you don’t receive a ‘Thank You’ and a green tick at the end, your submission may be unsuccessful. If you get a message to say the class is full, you may try a different class for the same age group. However, once classes are full, we cannot add any further spaces.

Below is a short video which you may find useful on what you get when you register your child with a Gymnastics Ireland affiliated club. You can see from the video what is required from a club, which includes some key factors such as insurance, Garda Vetting and Child Safeguarding of all coaches along with specific training the coaches must undertake to coach in a safe way. It’s a very short video, so please take a few minutes to check it out.

ATHLONE GYMNASTICS CLUB – proud Gymnastics Ireland member club! 

#GymnasticsIreland #GIMemberClub #SafeClub 

On Saturday last, we welcomed parents back into the club for the first time in 3 years to watch gymnasts taking part in the end of year club competition. It was a fantastic day with amazing performances from every gymnast.

The standard of gymnastics from these young gymnasts was superb and something, that we, as a club, are extremely proud of, with many gymnasts tied for places. We hope parents were very proud of the way they performed in front of a crowd, not an easy thing to do! For some of these children, they have only been with us for a few months and have never taken part in a competition before.

Thanks to the coaches, judges, helpers and committee who did trojan work in bringing about such an enjoyable and successful event.

The results of the competition are as below :-

The Club AGM will be held on Thursday, 30th June 2022 at 7.30pm in the Athlone Springs Hotel. All parents/guardians of children who are currently attending the gym are invited to come along. We look forward to seeing you there and getting some new parents involved in the club.

Refreshments will be provided.

As exam time approaches once again, we would like to wish our past and present members the very best of luck as they sit their Leaving and Junior Cert exams, especially Rachel, Aoibhinn, Aoife, Keela, Lile, Niamh and Orlaith.

Thank you to all who supported and donated to our recent fundraiser in SuperValu Monksland. Thanks to all the parents who volunteered with us over the 2 days, your help was greatly appreciated. We look forward to putting the funds raised towards some new equipment for the gym.

We are not currently taking on any new members as all our classes are full for the remainder of the term.

Please subscribe to our mailing list by hitting the ‘Subscribe’ button on our website (on the right of this page). This does not mean your child’s name is on a waiting list, it means that you will receive updates to your email when we post on our website. Any new spaces, when available, will be advertised on our website and will be strictly on a first come basis.

We have a very limited number of spaces now available for new members in a beginners class, for a 10 week term which starts on Tuesday, 26th April and runs until 28th June.

Spaces are strictly on a first come, first served basis only. Once the classes are full, the links will close down and we will not be taking any more registrations or adding names to a waiting list at this time.

Please ensure that the time and day suits before registering as there is no option to change days during the term. We can try to facilitate a change for September term but there is no guarantee of this as it is space dependent.

Please note this is not an additional class or change of day option for existing members, it is an opportunity for other children to join our club.

It is important that you read all the information on the form before registering your child.
