Young Leader (age 11 - 13 years)
The Young Leader programme introduces individuals to the various roles and opportunities within gymnastics.

They will complete courses, socialise, create and run projects and develop their leadership skills alongside many other personal skills. There will be rewards given at various stages of the programme which will encourage young leaders to continue to participate.
