Team Categories

• Beginner: This category is for children who are ‘non-gymnasts’ whereby the children are not and never have been part of a gymnastics club in school or a community club. Gymnasts in this category will attempt Level 1.
• Intermediate: This category is for children that are within a school gymnastics club but not a member of a community club outside of school. Gymnasts in this category will attempt Level 2
• Advanced: This category is for children that are competitive gymnasts, who are members of a community club outside of school/ attend external sessions. Gymnasts in this category will attempt Level 3.

There is no mixing of levels between categories and all 4 pupils in the team must complete the correct level. EG Children entered in advanced MUST complete Level 3. Children in intermediate MUST complete level 2 and so on. We are being firm on this. If this is not complied with the whole team scores will not be counted.
