Congratulations!

Well done to our 9 gymnasts who represented their counties recently in the Community Games Gymnastics National Final in Carlow – Catherine, Cara, Ella, Nia, Alannah, Isla, Kate, Mya and Katie. The girls all performed brilliantly, they were a credit to themselves and their families and were a great support to their fellow club gymnasts, we are so proud of them.

Special Congratulations to the 2 medal winners on the day – Kate (Silver) and Katie (Bronze), well done girls.

Limited Spaces for Boys

We have a very limited number of spaces available for boys in our weekly classes starting in September. Places are strictly on a first come basis only.

Please ensure you read the information before registering. This class is only for boys born in 2011 or 2012.

Once the spaces are all filled, the link will close and unfortunately, there is nothing further we can do at this time so please avoid ringing, emailing, etc., as we are unable to create any additional spaces.

Please ensure you complete all sections of the form accurately, including payment, as otherwise the place is not secure.

It is really important, for insurance and registration purposes, that you enter the correct date of birth, especially the correct year as we are only accepting boys born in 2011 or 2012 for this class. Any incorrect entries will be cancelled, unfortunately.

We strongly recommend using a laptop/PC when registering to avoid technical issues.

You should receive an automated email from Jotform and PayPal upon completion, these may go into junk mail, but if you do not receive these, it is likely that the registration has not been completed successfully.

Sunday, 9.00-10.30am Starting 3rd September 2023

Update for those wishing to join our club

As we are inundated with enquiries about new members joining our Club, it is not possible to reply to all those messages individually, there simply would not be enough hours to do so.

The procedure is as outlined already on our website and here is a summary, as follows :-

  • Subscribe to our mailing list on our website www.athlonegymnasticsclub.ie by hitting the subscribe button on this page (please note – this is not a waiting list)
  • Whenever spaces are available, the links to those classes are advertised on our website and are open to anyone who falls within the years outlined for a particular class. If you have subscribed, you will receive a notification of this new post to the email address that you used when you subscribed. We do not make individual contact with our subscribers. We have no control over the time the email is delivered to your inbox
  • Spaces are strictly on a first come basis so we have no control over who gets a space or not
  • Children must be age 6+ to join (depending on space available)
  • We do not operate a waiting list, nor do we hold spaces for a later date

We realise that gymnastics is a very popular sport and we would love to be able to offer everyone a space who wishes to join us, however, we have to be guided by the number of coaches we have available at any time. All our coaches are fully qualified under Gymnastics Ireland, our National Governing Body, are Garda Vetted and have completed their Child Safeguarding in accordance with the Children First Act.

Please note : we do not currently run gymnastics classes for Adults.
