Your child should clothes that doesn’t restrict their movement, such as, a track suit, t-shirt, leggings, leotard, or shorts. Our official club leotard can be bought on our online shop. Do not wear jackets, jeans, jewellery, hats or skirts.

Unfortunately we do not permit the gymnasts to wear socks due to our safety regulations in the gym however your child is welcome to wear gym shoes. We do not sell these but they can be found in most dance shops and online.

We ask that any parents dropping off or picking up gymnasts do so in Templeogue/St. Colmcille’s College car park so the coaches can see the gymnasts reaching their parents. We have a coach stood on each door ensuring that no gymnasts are leaving on their own.

Gymnasts should bring a drink of water to their class and can keep it with their belongings. We ask that gymnasts do not carry their water around the gym with them as we do not want any spillages on our equipment. Older gymnasts are welcome to bring their mobile phones with them but they must be turned to silent and kept in their bag throughout the class.

Our approximate gymnast-to-coach ratio in class is 10-12 gymnasts: 1 coach. This can vary depending on the coach and the class. If a group has an assistant the ratio could change.

Parents may accompany their children into the gym at the start of class and during the class they may wait in the seated entrance hall. Only gymnasts and coaches are allowed on the gym floor, please ensure all other children in your care (excluding gymnasts) are fully supervised and kept off the gym floor at all times. Parents will be invited to a class display during the year where they will be able to see their gymnast performing in a mini-display.

Children should arrive at class about 10 minutes early so that they do not miss the very important warm-up. Children may not be dropped off early to watch the other classes unattended. Please ensure you are punctual collecting your child as coaches will be teaching the next class.

Our classes are designed to cover a variety of different levels. Our general classes are designed for total beginners to a more advanced level. They should be constantly challenged learning new skills and progressing through our Olympian Awards. If we feel your child needs to move on there are the following options:

• Advanced/Teen Classes- these are designed for gymnasts with good ability to focus on those harder skills and conditioning. These classes are held on Sunday 12-2pm.
• Display training squad- The display training squad is a way for us as coaches to see how the gymnasts handle more intense training before moving into a display team. The display training squad will start to focus on more tumbling, performance and acrobatics so we can see how well the gymnasts do with this aspect of gymnastics.
• Display team ‘Kallisto’- This is our newest display performance team and will represent us at different events and train a few hours a week. We focus on tumbling, performance gymnastics and acrobatics.
• Display team ‘Odyssey’- This is our highest level display team comprising of 21 members. This team has represented us at numerous events over the years and has also been to participate in some international gymnastics festivals.

All of these disciplines have a trials process so please speak to the Head Coach if your child finds their class too easy and we can discuss the next step.

Unfortunately not. We have to maintain our class registers and group sizes for insurance purposes. Moving around between classes would mean we cannot control the numbers in the classes.

To join an advanced class your child must receive a recommendation their coach or Site Manager. You will have to contact the office to make the change between classes. This information may have to be verified by the office to ensure the child is in the correct class and that the class lists are updated correctly.

Once a year invitations for Display Trials will be given to gymnasts that the Display coaches recommend should try out for the Teams. High-level skills criteria and dedication to the training times are very important for the teams. If your gymnast hasn’t received a recommendation you can talk with a Display coach and you might be allowed to trial, however they may recommend you try again next year depending on their ability.

If you wish to move your child from one class to another you need to contact the office. You may not be successful if the class you desire is already full. We also allow members to move to a different class time or day for a certain period when registration opens up on our website. We give our members a limited amount of time to register into their own classes first, anad after that period changes can be made. For more information, contact the office.

We allow class changes to be made after our members have had at least 5-6 weeks to register their original space. To avoid disappointment, we recommend you register for your current class first, and after that time period just call the office and we’ll be able to make the change for you.

Olympian Club Merchandise can be bought from our Online Shop and our venue Site Managers also have a limited amount of merchandise available to buy too.

If our Club Merchandise is in stock and it is ordered online your items will usually be delivered to your child’s next class. If the item is out of stock it may take up to 4-6 weeks for delivery as we will have to order it in. You will be informed by email regarding your order if there are delays in delivery.

If you have ordered the wrong size you can return the item to the Site Manager who will arrange with the office to change your size. Alternatively you can contact the office to organise the correct size to be brought to your child’s class. If you item was packaged, we ask that you return the wrong size to the packaging also.

Our coaches are more than happy to speak to parents, however they also need to maximize coaching time with their gymnasts, if you wish to speak to us please do so at the end of the class.

If your gymnast is expected to be away for more than 2 weeks at a time please inform their coach or the head coach on the day.

A little practice at home every day can really help a child progress. Ask your child’s coach for conditioning exercises they can do. They can also practice the skills on our Olympian Progression Awards.

If you would like to speak to us about your child’s gymnastics class you can contact us in our office via the following details:

Call us on 0860825737 or email us at info@olympiangymnastics.com

Alternatively you can speak to your child’s coach at the end of their class. We would like to request that parents wait until the end of class in order to maximise the coaching time with the gymnasts.

Or ask the head coach at the start or end of your class.
