SUMMER GYMNASTICS DISPLAY 
19th JULY 2025

Our Summer Display is scheduled for Saturday 19th July 2025 and after last years amazing show we can't wait to do it all again!

If your gymnast wants to be involved, you must sign them up by Friday 6th June.  It is important that you read the information below and sign up by the deadline in order to be involved...

 

 WHAT IS THE SUMMER DISPLAY? 

The Summer Display (also know as the Summer Sizzler) is a chance for ALL our members to be involved in group routines showing off their skills, performing and having fun!  Whatever your child’s age, stage and ability they can be part of the action!  The main part of all Routines are taught to everyone in the class (usually starting after half term) and then they are finished off and polished during the dedicated Display rehearsals.

 

The theme this year is, "AGC Takes the Stage" ... we will be exploring some of the most popular and inspiring Stage show hits, soundtracks and scores from across the decades!

 

 WHAT IS THE COMMITMENT FOR THE GYMNASTS? 

In addition to the specific rehearsal dates in the Schedule, Gymnasts are recommended to maintain good attendance for the second half of Summer Term and to refer to the videos which we provide in order to practice at home.
