We are excited to say we have these 2 pieces of equipment on order! Thanks to Swanage Rotary club for their very kind contribution enabling us to update our trampet and expand capacity through an extra roll mat. The Rotary club enjoyed a visit to see us in action and were equally impressed by our Gymnasts when viewing a video montage of our club at a presentation evening attended by Chris and Hannah back in July. We look forward to inviting the Rotary club back to have a go when our new equipment arrives!

We were very pleased to be invited to take part in the Dorset Schools and Youth Gymnastics Association ‘Celebration display’. This afternoon was an opportunity for clubs to say thank you to Roger Castle for his outstanding contribution to Dorset Gymnastics. Roger worked hard to bring gymnasts and clubs together and would happily share coaching advise, and joint training sessions in order to maintain the fantastic network Dorset Gymnastics has. There are so many people who are grateful to Roger for their own reasons, and it is with great sadness that we should share the news of his passing last week. He will be missed but remembered for his passion for our sport and supportive nature.

Continually developing our coaches is very important and they have been very busy this summer term with courses and training, here are a few things they have achieved:

Congratulations to Coach Chris for passing his Level 2 General Gymnastics theory and practical exams, we have heard that you breezed through it all!

Well done to young leader Dottie for attending your Proficiency award scheme coaching course in Honiton, your confidence is growing and you are turning into a fantastic coach!

Great to see senior Gymnast Kerry attending her Level 1 General Gymnastics course days, some hard work ahead with log books and an exam, we wish you luck with the coming months!

Hannah has now attended a Preschool Gymnastics coaching course, exciting to know that we are working towards offering Preschool Gymnastics in the future.

Welcome to volunteer Scott who has started to assist on a Thursday evening. Scott is a parent volunteer and also attends our Adults Gymnastics class. With a background in outdoor leadership Scott is a fantastic motivator with great ideas.

We also welcome young leader Tilly to the team. Tilly is one of our older Gymnasts who assists in 2 classes and is great at helping our youngest gymnasts and a fab assistant to the coaches.
