Frequently Asked Questions

How do I sign my child up?

Use this link here to sign your child up. Some classes will be full so if you are interested in that class you will need to join the waiting list. 

What should my child wear to their sessions?

A leotard isn’t compulsory; if your child does not own one then they can attend the session wearing comfortable clothing that doesn’t restrict their movement. Shorts or leggings and a tucked in t-shirt are suitable for all general classes. For trampolining, your child will also need to wear socks. 

Crop tops and hooded tops are not allowed. Hair should be tied back and all jewellery removed (or taped if removal is not possible) 

Does my child need insurance?

Yes, you will need to purchase a British Gymnastics membership for your child to be able to attend a regular class and be covered by insurance. For gymnasts in any of our recreational classes, a Community Membership is required. For those competing your coach will advise you on the most suitable membership. For our drop in sessions, no British Gymnastics membership is required.

If my child misses a session, are there "make up" sessions?

No, we don’t offer make up sessions or refunds if your child misses their class. If your child will be unable to attend over a long period due to serious illness or injury then please contact us on office@ycgf.org.uk
