While the Government Covid-19 regulations are in place we will be obliged to share the relevant contact details in the event of a gymnast or coach contracting the virus.

If you/your child want(s) to enter a competition provided by an external organisation, we will, with your agreement, share the information required to enter the event, usually name, DOB and gender. Most competitions are large events and there are likely to be photographers and people filming.
