Competitive Approach
We have members competing at all levels. BG grades FIG A/B, National C compete nationally (could be Scotland or round the corner) whereas BG grades Regional D, E, F & G compete on a regional basis, these competitions are rarely further away than Potters Bar or Ipswich. The system provides for Club grades H & I as well which may compete either in internal club or Open competitions.
In all cases competitions are organised by age group and sex. If you or your child wishes to compete they will need to learn at least one routine in order to complete a compulsory “set” routine and a “voluntary” routine (often repeating set in earlier grades or when new to a grade). Progression through the grades and age groups will be possible for most members. To find out more about competitions in general please look at our pages about competing.
Competition entries need to be in some time in advance and your child will be invited to enter if their coach believes it to be appropriate. We do not receive timings however for each group until the week before the competition! It would be helpful for you to use the download form on this website (see below) to enter your children.
Although we do not always know start-times, you can at least do some for forward planning by looking for upcoming competitions on our comps and results page here - this lists all the dates of competitions we expect to be attending together with directions to them and links to the results once we have them. The results provided in this section (links to current and prior years are from the drop-down menu above) are not always the complete results for each competition but will at least provide scores for our won members; where available pictures will also be included.
