Trials

Entry to EJB Gymnastics Club is through selection at trials.

At EJB Gymnastics Club, we aim to have all our members compete in gymnastics competitions. We are looking for girls and boys for whom that would be an appropriate and enjoyable activity.

At the trials, the gymnasts will be asked to perform tasks which will demonstrate strength, flexibility, balance, control and co-ordination. We are looking for potential and not specific skills. No previous experience is necessary for our beginner classes.

Places will be allocated so that the gymnasts train with others who are of a similar age and ability. At the end of each term there is some movement between sessions, so email me if the session allocated to your gymnast wouldn’t work for you as there might be a space in an alternative session.

Every trial lasts 1 hour and costs £10. The money should be transferred to –

40 08 41, 31592319 before the trial date.

The date of the trials which is only for BOYS of junior age is:- Saturday 13th January 2024

2pm – 3pm

EJB Gymnastics Club are opening up a Junior Elite Squad for Boys. 

Gymnasts selected will show an aptitude for gymnastics and a willingness to compete as an individual and in a team.

The Squad will train on Saturdays 2-4pm at Habs Boys School.

There will also be trials for girls of all ages and boys who wish to join the club (but not squad) on Saturday 13th January from 5.30pm – 6.30pm.
