EXCEL
Competitive Gymnastics That's Focused on Fun
EXCEL (GFA Apparatus Programme), is our recreational competitive stream. This class is open to athletes aged 7+, however an assessment is required to join.
EXCEL puts the focus on participation and enjoyment, with athletes getting to choose the skills they compete.
This is an excellent option for those athletes who have strong gymnastic abilities and a desire to compete, but don't have the time required to commit to artistic competitive.
Information For Excel Parents.
