Track Your Progress
Our structured badge programme motivates, inspires, and rewards every gymnast for their hard work, commitment, and personal growth.
Our Gymnastics Badge Scheme for General, Intermediate, and Advanced gymnasts progresses from Badge 1 (Beginner) through to Badge 8 (Advanced).
The scheme is designed to support all-round gymnastics development, giving every gymnast clear goals to work towards and a real sense of achievement as they progress.
To achieve each badge level, gymnasts work towards completing a range of required skills throughout the year. Testing takes place annually, allowing gymnasts to showcase the progress, strength, technique, and confidence they have developed during training.
Our badge scheme covers a broad range of gymnastics disciplines, building well-rounded athletes at every level.
Developing range of motion and suppleness for safe, confident movement.
