Gymnastics
Our Gymnastics programmes offer pathways designed to optimise student participation in a fun but disciplined environment
Gymnastics is a fantastic foundation for all sports, as well as a fun, challenging and highly skillful sport on its own. At South Coast Baptist College our Gymnastics programmes include Artistic and Trampoline Gymsports. By participating in these rigorous training programmes, each student is given the opportunity to engage in the development of fine and gross motor skills, increase flexibility, build strength and personal discipline. Our inclusive programmes offer pathways designed to optimize student participation in a fun but disciplined environment.
Registration is open for the 2023 Community and Co-Curricular Programmes.

As part of Physical Education at the College, Students from year 1 to 6 have access to the Gymnastics Sports Specialty Programme. Students participate in an Artistic Gymnastics based programme designed to increase balance, fitness, improve core strength, reflexes, whole body muscle extension and flexion. This programme is taught once per week for the duration of a term.
Our Secondary Students are given the opportunity to engage in our Trampolining programme when chosen as an elective. This programme is designed to be equal parts challenging and rewarding, teaching students aerial awareness, safe landing skills and body control.
Co-Curriculum Programmes
Designed for our College Students who want to expand on their Curriculum programme. Created with multiple pathways, we have something prepared for everyone. Offered 1-2 times per week outside of school hours, students can work their way through our non-competitive WAG (Women’s Artistic Gymnastics) or TRP (Trampolining) pathway. Each of our Co-Curriculum Gymsports are aimed to assist students to realise their full athletic potential. Skill testing, parent displays, and team challenges are just a few of the extra benefits our Co-Curriculum programme has to offer.

There are multiple pathways within the Academy including; Club level WAG, State level WAG, Club level TRP and State level TRP.
