UWIC GYMNASTICS

UWIC gymnastics club is made up of a small number of students of all ability levels who share an enthusiasm for the sport. UWIC provides a great opportunity for any person of any level to enjoy the sport and learn new acrobatic skills with the aid of the sprung floor, sunken foam pit, trampoline and many other pieces of apparatus. The small number means there is always a friendly and positive attitude within training sessions, socials and other team events.

Competing for UWIC

Competitions include the British Universities and Colleges Sport Event (BUCS) which provides two levels of competition based on ability for men and women, individuals and teams. BUCS accommodates for all levels of gymnastics and gives any person willing to enter an opportunity to compete. UWIC consistently ranks in the medals in all categories. This is due to the dedication and hard work of all gymnasts as well as a love for the sport and the hunger for victory. This fantastic competition is just one of the events you could be involved in next year.

Training for UWIC

UWIC Cyncoed campus is lucky enough to have excellent gymnastic facilities on site as well as a strong connection with Cardiff Central Gymnastic Club who provide a large, Olympic standard training facility to UWIC on a weekly basis. The current training times for the Gymnastics Club are:

Monday – 7.30-10pm Syd Aaron
Tuesday – 7.45am-9am Syd Aaron and 7.30-10pm Syd Aaron
Wednesday – 8.15-10pm Syd Aaron

Information on the 2011-2012 trials will be posted in early September.

Socialising at UWIC

As well as working hard in the gym, UWIC gymnasts also find time to fundraise for the team and have regular socials including meals out and nights out in Cardiff.
