Team Programs
Want To Join Our Gymnastics Team Program?
These athletes give a 10 month to a year commitment depending on their team. They train with the same group throughout the year giving them a chance to build close friendships with their fellow teammates as well as their coach. By gaining these friendships they become supportive and encourage each other throughout the year. Athletes in a team program have the opportunity to participate and represent our club in events such as The Santa Claus Parade, Skating Party, School Demos, Team Fun Night, Cartwheels for Cash, Showcase and a Banquet. These programs require a parent volunteer commitment.
Team Program Tryouts
The Barrie Kempettes Gymnastics Club will be holding Tryouts for new and current athletes who are interested in being part of the Barrie Kempettes team programs for the upcoming season.
The tryouts are designed to determine and assess whether or not an athlete is well suited for our team programs. Athletes will be tested on various skills and physical abilities. Once tryouts are complete, parents will be informed by email as to which program their athlete has been selected for or not.
Team tryouts will be held for Women's Artistic Gymnastics, Men's Artistic Gymnastics and Tumbling. All programs offer an Advanced Rec option (non-competitive), an Interclub option (competitive) and a Provincially / Nationally Competitive option.
Parents and athletes are encouraged to arrive approximately 10 - 15 minutes prior to the start of their tryout to ensure all paperwork and payment has been completed.
We encourage everyone who is interested to come and tryout. All gymnasts coming to tryouts should be in appropriate gymnastics attire (i.e.: body suit or shorts and a t-shirt and bare feet)
