Affiliation Benefits

Affiliation with Gymnastics Australia and State Associations brings a club a wide array of benefits, both on the floor and in the office. Only affiliated Clubs have access to recognised coach and judge education and industry training. Only affiliated Clubs can provide their members with a full range of opportunities to participate and compete in gymnastics in all its forms.

Affiliated Clubs benefit from Gymnastics Australia partnerships with national and international organisations including the International Federation of Gymnastics (FIG), Australian Sports Commission, Australian Institute of Sport and State and territory Institutes of Sport. These partnerships grow the awareness of gymnastics across the board and provide funding for grassroots and elite programs.
