The competitive programs use the Levels 1-10 standard, are designed by the International Gymnastic Federation (IGF) and are used by all affiliated clubs nationally and internationally for Levels stream activity. They allow participants to progress through the sport in a graded manner and to compete with other clubs and gymnasts who are working at the same Level.

The Levels Program is part of the Australian Gymnastic Federation's competitive
plan. Students qualify to participate in this program through advancement from
Pre-Levels or by invitation. This is a 10 level system and involves learning
specific routines at each level and performing these routines in competition.
In the higher Levels gymnasts get the opportunity to express their individuality
by presenting routines that they have designed with their coaches. Competitions
are external to the Club and are held on a Regional and State basis and for
Levels 7-10 National and International.
The competitions serve 2 purposes, a) as a grading to evaluate readiness to move
to the next level, b) to provide competitive experience where students representing
our Club compete against members of other gymnastic clubs.
Training times increase as students progress through the system.
Levels 1 – 3 students must attend 2 x 2.5 hrs per week. A third session is optional. |
