Squad competitions

State Teams

Earlier in the year Miranda, Suhana and Ella qualified for Level 8 Victorian State Teams.

Miranda represented Victoria in the Australian Championships, Suhana and Ella represented Victoria for the Queensland Border Challenge. Head Coach Nat was selected as Level 8 Team Coach.


We are so proud of how hard the girls trained and worked in the lead up to these competitions. We loved watching you shine and most importantly enjoy the experience.

ALP & Gymstar Squads

Competitions  are in full swing for our Junior ALP squads and Gymstar squads. It makes us so proud to watch how much these girls are developing, enjoying their gymnastics, and striving to be better every day. Keep up the awesome work girls, your joy is infectious.

Go Team Niddrie!

Niddrie invite

Each year our club hosts an ALP Level 3 - 7 invitational competition. This year it was held across 2 days - 14th and 15th July. We hosted over 350 gymnasts from 13 different clubs from Albury to Tasmania. It was a HUGE weekend of fun.


We would like to thank all our wonderful committee, parents, coaches, staff and of course our gymnasts who help to make our annual competition one of the favourites amongst the gymnastics community. Go Niddrie!

Committee

Niddrie Gymnastics is a not-for-profit Community Club that is run by a volunteer committee of parents and coaches.


Our Committee meeting are held on the last Tuesday of every month upstairs in the kitchen at 7pm. All welcome.


We encourage our squad parents to attend Committee Meetings, especially before our big calendar Events. You can find out more about our Committee HERE.


General Items

Things to remember

Valuables: Please make sure your child doesn't wear any valuable jewellery, watches etc to class. These can easily come off in the pit and get in the way of their gymnastics. We can not be responsible for any lost items.

Hair: Please make sure your child's long hair is neatly tied back before class commences.

Shoes: We encourage children to wear slip-on shoes (thongs/slides) as many will need to put them on themselves at the end of class.

Foyer: As the foyer is quite small, we encourage recreational parents to drop off and pick up wherever possible.

Recreational Certificates: Children progress at their own pace, therefore Certificates are given out at different times throughout the Term, please explain this to your child so they don't get upset, every child will receive a certificate that reflects their skill level.

Drop-Off Zone

We've noticed quite a few cars parked in the drop-off zone. This is a real safety issue as it forces parents to double park to drop off their children.

We need to keep this area clear and cars moving, especially during busy changeover times. 

There is ample parking just a short walk from the gym.


This is allocated for DROP-OFF ONLY, please park your car to pick up your child.


Please let partners, grandparents or anyone else who picks up your child know about this safety issue.

Missed Classes

Please note, we do not offer credits or refunds for missed classes. Particularly with our Recreational and Tumble Time classes, we have long waitlists.


Upon enrolling you enrol for the whole Term. 

We can offer credits in certain circumstances and if a medical certificate is supplied.
