Text Box: This is not too difficult so please inform Jenny Birtwistle if you would like to help. Full training is given; all you have to do is tick off the gymnasts as they arrive on a Saturday morning, honest!
Text Box: The timings are available for the Phil Tighe Competition. This year it is at the Medlock Centre in Droylsden, NOT Copley. Make sure you turn up at least 25 minutes before the warm up time. Maps and Photo forms are available in the gym. We will provide music and numbers. There is a swimming pool there so bring tour cosies, but parents will need to supervise, Coaches don’t swim!

Text Box: The AGM will be on Monday 21st April in the small gym. There will be no gym on that night, just the AGM. Make this the year that you join in. There are always jobs to do and the more the merrier on the committee. Look out for the nomination forms on the notice board in the gym.

How can you help?
BAGA Scheme Administrator
Collects the slips, prints out the certificates and orders new badges and certificates when stocks run low. Easy!

Awards
We need medals and cups for competitions. All you need to do is choose and order them and collect them from our supplier in Gee Cross. Easy!

Liaison Officer
This is a position on the exec committee and we must have this person for GymMark. It involves talking to people in the community that we work with such as the schools, Sports Development and other parties. This one is not so easy.

Fund Raising
We don’t do very much and the role is not to organise jumble sales. There are lots of grants available and we don’t even apply for them on a regular basis. This is a paper job and will be essential when the new gym kicks in.
