Are you Irish? I’d love to find out more about other systems and not so well-known gymnasts from around the world. Great blog, keep going!

Hi there,

Thanks for your comment. That’s very interesting, I would’ve thought that gym would have been quite big in New Zealand, maybe that’s in thinking that the Australian team have been to a lot of big international competitions.

We don’t have very long training hours, our competitive class train for 5 and a half hours a week, compared to other clubs who might train most days and at least double the amount our girls do. We waste time because of having to take out and put all of the equipment back in so we lose about 30 – 40 mins of a 3 hour class which is a lot.

I heard yesterday, about another full time gym open in Northern Ireland but I am not sure if they are listed under IG or British Gymnastics.

Bloody rugby!

New Zealand used to be like that – school hall hire with moving equipment in and out being the warm up!
It’s much better now with full time facilities with full time coaches across the country. Still no where near Australia for success though. Like Ireland, very hard to compete for funding against the great god RUGBY.
