Club Rules and Procedures

Club Rules Updated February 2024

It is especially important, that all our members take time to read through, and fully understand these rules and procedures, this will ensure everyone involved is fully informed and prepared for their gymnastics class. Should you need any clarification please do not hesitate to ask us for any additional information needed.

Arriving at the Gymnastics Centre

  1. To help us support your child and keep everybody safe, if your child is feeling unwell, has a temperature, cold, cough or headache please do not bring your child to their gymnastics class. Please ensure that we are informed of any injuries or illness that may affect their training and that your customer portal is up to date with all medical information.
  2. The viewing gallery is open for spectators that have members attending the club, the gallery is not open for general public access.
  3. Children will be collected, by the coaches, from the viewing gallery at their class start time. Children must arrive promptly for the start of their class. Please do not enter the gymnastics centre until you have been invited to do so by a member of staff.
  4. It is a requirement that all gymnasts wear suitable clothing for their class. E.g. Leotard, shorts, leggings, or t-shirt.

Finishing the class

  1. At the end of their class all children will be escorted up to the viewing gallery by their coach. Please ensure you collect your child on time at the end of their class.

Following your trial class, you will receive a welcome email detailing how to sign up to our customer portal and the details of your enrolment into HGC. You will also receive your first invoice. Within this invoice you will be billed for the club membership and two months fees (the current month and one month in advance), the next invoice and all subsequent fee invoices, will be for the advance monthly fee period only.

Fees must be paid promptly and should be received by the club no later than the payment date indicated on your invoice, which is normally the end of the month, this date is clearly indicated on every fee invoice. If payment is not received on time, a late payment charge may be applied to your account and this charge will be added to the following bill period. In the rare event that continued late, or non-payment is recorded then the club will exercise its right to immediately exclude these members from any further classes until all outstanding fees have been received.
  4. If you no longer want your place within a class and wish to withdraw from the club, this can be done at any time providing that the club is given a minimum of one month’s notice, prior to the end of the current billing period.
