We are very lucky to have a talented team of professional and junior coaches within our club. 

As your gymnast moves through different classes or levels, they may have different coaches at each level. Your coach will decide on their preferred form of communication and let you know – this is often through Facebook or messenger groups. 

All of our coaches have some gymnastics and/or teaching background, with many of them competing in gymnastics until a very high level. Some are also judges. All have various coaching and judging qualifications or are working towards completing their qualifications.

You will notice that many of our coaches are young, many still at high school. This is because Artistic Gymnastics is a very much a youth sport, and many artistic gymnasts stop competing in their teens, but remain with the sport as coaches. We have a Junior Coach Coordinator who oversees these coaches and can be contacted through the administrator if you have any questions or concerns.

The Gymnastics NZ Coach Qualification Pathway:

Could you coach??
Do you have gymnastics, teaching or childcare experience? We are always looking for coaches for all of our programmes. We provide all the necessary training and on-the-job mentoring, and there is reasonable remuneration for the coaching roles once qualifications are obtained. If you are interested in becoming a coach or judge, please let Jo our Administrator know.
